Meet Nicolette. You might know her as Stevie Foxx but she’s not that person anymore.

It seems crazy that these photos were taken less than a year ago. I took them the day after I met Nicolette for the first time. I feel like we have gone through a ton since then (We got stuck in an elevator just minutes before midnight on New Years Eve!) and I now consider her a really good friend. That’s the best part of this job. I get to meet so many amazing people and Nicolette and I hit it off right way.

When we shot these photos Nicolette was drinking a lot. I saw her drink a bottle of whiskey to herself the night before and she was halfway through a bottle while we were shooting these. I can only remember a couple times I was with her when she wasn’t swigging from a bottle of Jameson.

I don’t drink very often and one of the main reasons is because I have seen alcohol destroy so many of my friends. I lost a grandfather to it and a best friend. So when I Nicolette and I became better friends her drinking started to worry me a lot. She was so nice and fun and creative and it killed me to see her drinking that much. She honestly could handle it pretty well but she would flake on shit or wake up wondering what the hell happened to her missing fingernail.

Fortunately, she recognized the problem and got help. She moved to Florida and got the fuck away from the bullshit in her life and has been reborn. She stopped drinking and started getting healthy and I am so fucking happy for her. I know it’s going to be hard but I am pretty confident she’s gonna be okay.

I haven’t seen her since she left New York but she’s back coming up next month and I can’t wait to see her and take some new photos from her new life. Next time I post her photos I won’t even mention Stevie Foxx again because that’s not who she is anymore. I can’t wait to meet Nicolette.

Ps. There are a some more explicit high res photos of her on Girls of Driven By Boredom plus exclusive mini set of her and American Cassidy that I took while I was shooting for my NOT SAFE ZINE and my Instaxxx book.
