Overview:
Erotic photography is a curious thing. Calling it "art" just screams pretension and self-righteousness but labeling it "pornography" does a disservice to the highly skilled craftsmen who produce it. FemJoy seems to have decided that being both at the same time is the best solution. The photographers try to turn you on but in a more refined way. Sounds good, right? Well, wait until you see the quality.

The design of FemJoy is quite pleasant to look at and gives a good indication of what to expect from the content: sophisticated depictions of female sexuality that should give even Larry Flynt a boner. The navigation is fairly straightforward and makes for an agreeable browsing experience. The front members' page gives a few solid options from which to find your desired content. Links to their entire photographic archive, video archive and model index are available, with the latter two also appearing on a top-of-the-page menu bar that follows you wherever you go. Hitting the model index shows that there are over 500 gorgeous women gracing these pages with their sexy presence - a number that increases frequently. After finding a beauty that takes your fancy - take Amelie for instance - and checking out her model page, you'll find links to all her various scenes and shoots. There's no bios or interviews with the models, but we are given a brief spiel about how incredible they are courtesy of the webmaster. Amelie currently has three video scenes online, so let's find out If that quality is as great as we've been told.

Videos are offered in a variety of formats and resolutions, including 640x360 WMV/QuickTime, iPod/iPhone/PSP ready MP4 and, the jewel in the FemJoy video crown, 1280x720 High Definition QuickTime and WMV. While all of the formats are nicely done and will suit various users, anyone who doesn't at least try watching one of the HD selections has issues that would best be diagnosed by a mental health professional. The clarity of these videos is just fantastic, showing every inch of the beautiful bodies and faces on display. This is exactly the kind of site that needs High Definition content and FemJoy delivers in spades.

The photography is equally impressive, with a number of great viewing options provided. Zip downloads are available in three sizes, Quickview (800pixels), Collector's (1200pixels) and Poster Size (4000pixels). There are also slideshows that you can run from your browser window if you so choose. The Poster Size images have a staggering 4000x2667 pixel resolution and, yes, if you printed them out on large enough paper, you'd have a poster quality image you could cover your bathroom wall with. Now that's high quality!

The female subjects of the camera's attention are all quite beautiful (obviously some more than others) and do a great job of posing in a sultry, sumptuous manner. Many of the scenes take place outside in the wilds of nature with cascading waterfalls, rocky rocks and other natural-type things. Some take place indoors, in the kitchen, bedroom or lounging on a sofa. Anywhere the photographers place them, the models look stunning and that's thanks in part to the great work of the lensmen themselves. These guys are world-class photographers who know what F-Stop to use and how shallow the depth of focus should be to best display these lovely ladies and their impressive physical attributes.

So, how much will this high quality content cost you? $34.95 a month, that's how much. I know, I know - it's pretty steep, but if you're a big time erotic photography and tasteful nudes fan I'm sure it'll be a worthwhile way to spend your money. If you're still undecided, the handful of positive and negative observations I'm about to disclose should help you make your decision.

Pros:
- The women of FemJoy are absolutely gorgeous and could surely be making a great deal of money with their clothes on. Luckily for us, they've chosen not to.

- The high quality of the content is truly impressive. The HD videos are brilliant and clear, making the girls even more enticing than they appear in the thumbnails. The photos are fantastic, too, with huge resolutions that allow you to see each and every detail.

- Not only is content of a very high quality, but there's quite a bit of it to boot. With daily updates there's bound to be enough content to last you quite a while indeed.

Cons:
- $34.95, while for a great service, is still fairly expensive for monthly membership. If $7 or $8 were knocked off it'd be a sure thing.

- The site's lack of model bios is pretty disappointing, I must say.

- Many of the videos only last about three minutes, which is far too short. 10 minutes seems like the right amount of time; it'd be nice if all vids matched that duration.

Conclusion:
If tasteful nudes and erotic photography is your bag, then FemJoy is the one-stop-shop that should meet all of your needs. The women are beautiful, the content plentiful, the quality impressive, and the navigation? It's simple enough. There are very few issues with a site this accomplished; even though the price is a little steep and there's no hardcore content, what do you expect? Free lattes?
