The AVN Awards took place way back on Saturday night and I haven’t posted any photos until now because I was waiting for the story I did for the Daily Beast to come out, and it came out this morning. Not only is the Daily Beast an awesome client (and my mom’s favorite website) but they asked me to write for them which is always fun for me. I have written for the Daily Beast, Playboy, Vice, Noisey, Boing Boing and a bunch of others and I feel like at this point I could build a portfolio that tricks people into thinking I am an actual writer, but I will not.

Anyway, the 2020 AVN Awards makes the 13th time I have covered the AVN Awards week. I thought it was 12 all week, but I just counted to be sure. The first year I went, I went just to party and ended up selling a bunch of the photos, but I didn’t cover the actual awards. The next year I did the red carpet but that was so boring so the next year I hid at the end of the red carpet and shot people off the red carpet. AVN liked my photos so much they started giving me access to the awards and I covered the awards for years. The last two years I was dating Gia Paige so I went as her guest instead of shooting the awards. This year I tried to get back inside the awards and apparently they now have a contract with Showtime that prohibits anyone who isn’t working for AVN from shooting the awards despite me having a massive client like the Daily Beast. They did give me red carpet access, but that is fucking boring so I decided against it.

I decided to shoot people waiting for the red carpet instead of actually on the carpet. It was kinda a risky move and I got a lot of random people in the background and I kept having to switch from flash to natural light back and forth because I don’t want to shoot flash when I don’t have it. I ended up missing some shots because of it, but I think ultimately it’s a lot more interesting to look at these than another set of red carpet photos. Right?

After the show started I went back to my hotel and just relaxed for the first time all week. I came back a couple hours later and took some photos of people coming out of the awards before heading to an absurd party at a mansion that looked like someone just googled “crazy party” and threw everything they could at it. There were fancy cars parked outside and a mermaid in the swimming pool and fire performers and sexy cops and it was just so silly, but I am glad I went because it was very weird, but I only took like 3 photos so sorry about that. 

Anyway, congrats to all of the winners, especially my friends. Angela White won her 3rd Female Performer of the Year award and Small Hands won Male Performer of the Year and I really like both of those people so that was great. My friend Abella Danger won best ass, but we will get to that in a future post… 

Speaking of, this is the first of four AVN Week posts. Next up will be the Adult Entertainment Expo, followed by a post with just a bunch of random left over shots, and then finally, probably Monday, I will post the “Girls of AVN” post that everyone likes so much every year. All the photos, except the Girls of AVN stuff, is already up on Girls of DBB so go check that out now if you are a subscriber.

Almost exactly a year ago I met Ginger Banks in Vegas. It just so happens that tomorrow I am flying to Vegas so it only makes sense that I put her photos up today. We shot these last time I was in LA, the last photos I posted, and now I am headed back to LA this week, so once again it just all makes sense to post these today.

There isn’t a ton to say about these photos. They are pretty normal hot girl in her underwear and then out of her underwear photos but Ginger is really rad and you should probably know about her if you didn’t already. She also makes a bunch of really dumb faces and I mean that in the best possible way, so you are gonna enjoy that a lot in these photos. Oh, and her butt fucking rules, so there’s that. 

Speaking of her butt, if you would like to see some more photos of it you should sign up for Girls of Driven By Boredom because there are some extra high res photos of it on there. You need that in your life.

Lastly, normally when I go out of town for two weeks I just tell you to go follow me on Twitter and Instagram and stuff, but I still have another post coming soon I hope. It’s a secret but my plan is to post it while I am on this trip, be on the lookout for that. Now go look at Ginger already.

I have shot Kasey Warner many, many times. She is one of my favorite people and pretty much anytime I go to LA we shoot something even if it’s just something random. I have shot her in Vegas and NYC as well. I have done a bunch of shoots with her with other girls as well. I have an upcoming shoot that I haven’t published with Chloe Cherry that I shot at her place for example. She isn’t in the actual shoot, but I took a bunch of 35mm shots of the two of them together. The point of all this is that this is only the second actual shoot I have ever done with her. You can see the first one here.

These photos we shot last time I was in LA and I realized that I am about to go to LA again and so I should get some of those photos up. I have a bunch of stuff from that trip that I haven’t looked at other than to pull a few photos for the models. (Tip for photographers, get models a few images right away so they don’t get pissed that you don’t do anything with the full shoot for months.) We went on a hike in Griffith Park shot a bunch of photos in this little dead end area we found. We could have been seen by a bunch of people, but I think we managed to pull it off without getting caught. That’s always fun.

After the shoot we went to get some food at a diner called Brite Spot and while we were eating there was a 7.1 earthquake. I had briefly been awakened by an earthquake the day before, but this was the first time in my life I had really been aware of what was happening. All the chandelier’s in the restaurant were shaking and people were completely freaking out. I have lived in Brooklyn too long and my immediate thought was that I would look “uncool” if I tried to run for cover so I just sort of sat there and took it in. I didn’t really realize how big it was and looked outside and noticed the traffic light poles were swinging about 3 feet in either direction. In the end everything was fine and honestly it was really fun.

Okay, that’s all I got. I have one post coming  before I leave town on Thursday for LA and Vegas for the AVN Awards and to shoot a bunch. I am actually covering the awards for the Daily Beast which should be fun. So see you guys soon.

Oh, and of course there are some extra very NSFW images from this shoot on Girls of Driven By Boredom. These pics are also in high res over there and have been up for days. So go sign up.

Happy 2020 guys. I got some cool stuff coming this month including a new Kickstarter 100 project, my yearly trip to the AVN Awards and my “Best of 2019” update which means I need to get to my “Best of 2018” update because apparently it doesn’t exist. Hopefully blogging about this will keep me accountable or something. Anyway it’s been a minute since my last update with the Christmas and New Years break so let’s get you guys some photos.

Back in August I was at the Gathering of the Juggalos, but I had to be in Miami the following Thursday so I decided I would just fly straight to Florida to save money. I had to be in Florida for a few extra days but I figured I could take advantage of it. I flew into Orlando and rented a car and photographed my friend Veronica Rose (aka Ay Dubz) on this river somewhere. I grabbed my digital camera but I left the charged battery in the car and we had to canoe to the shoot so I only got a few photos in before it died. I mostly wanted to shoot film though so it wasn’t a big deal. 

The next day I drove down to Miami and stayed with Abella Danger for the night. I helped her put her new bed together and we were supposed to shoot the next morning but we woke up late so once again I just shot film of her really quickly. I did get some nice stuff out of it though. 

From there I drove north to meet my friend Michelle to go to a Dolphins game and on the way I stopped off at Karlee Grey’s place and we did a shoot on a beach. IIt was really bright and there were a bunch of people on the beach and we didn’t have much time, but I shot plenty of digital stuff and she is unreasonably attractive so you got some great photos to look at.

I ended up being really late meeting Michelle for the game because right as we were finishing shooting someone walked past us and then walked about 100 yards and turned around and she got stuck in the water completely naked while we waited for them to very walk by us again. Anyway, Karlee rules and hopefully one day we get to do a shoot under more ideal situations.

Anyway, I uploaded all the shots for you guys here, but I also uploaded the ones of Veronica to Girls of Driven By Boredom, and as always the ones of Karlee ar available in high resolution on Girls of DBB. So sign up now!

I love taking photos of my friend Sammy. She lives less than two blocks from me and she will text me in the middle of the night about taking photos and we just walk around shooting stuff in public. One of the first shoots we ever did was pretty much the same thing back in 2013 before we were even neighbors and now it’s a regular occurrence. 

As I was trying to think of something to update the site with before I left town for the holidays I thought of Sammy. I had a few mini shoots of her that I had never published as well as a bunch of 35mm photos. I also had some photos of her in the snow on a rooftop that I put on Girls of Driven By Boredom, but never on here. I figured I could mash them all together and make a good gallery for you guys. Literally an hour after I pulled all the photos, Sammy hit me up and asked me to photograph her in this crazy latex mask she bought. I told her about my public nudity mash up gallery plan and said this would be perfect for it, so at 1am we left the house and took some very weird photos. Even when she had clothes on we got a lot of funny looks walking around.

Before I finish this post I should mention that I am leaving town tomorrow, headed to Miami for 24 hours and then on to DC for the holidays. If you ordered anything from my shop it’s going out tomorrow, including the Vacation Photos Album which I am about to spend the rest of the night assembling. If you order anything by noon it will ship tomorrow afternoon, but anything later than that ships after Christmas. Shop now, motherfuckers.

Lastly, I should plug Girls of Driven By Boredom on here. I pulled a few photos from each shoot specifically to save for the app, so there’s something like 20 extra photos on there. The roof photos were already up on there as their own bonus gallery, and as always the photos were up early and in high resolution. So just sign up, it’s like $2 a month if you sign up  for a year which is way less than a subscription to the New York Times and has way more nudity. It makes also makes a great Christmas present for a pervert. Your uncle will thank you.

More than a month ago I had this idea. I wanted to go to Vegas to photograph a few models there and I couldn’t really afford the trip. I remembered a few years ago I made this “What Happens in Vegas” photo album to pay for a trip to Vegas and I thought maybe I should do a second edition of it. And then I started thinking about other ideas and I ended up with the idea of doing a “Vacation Photos” photo album, but we will get to that in a second. I organized a good edit of photos, put it for sale in my Etsy store, and was getting ready to release it when my life fell apart. If you don’t want to be guilt tripped into buying stuff, feel free to skip a paragraph. 

First my website got hacked and I was dealing with that for weeks. People suggested I should do a GoFundMe to pay for fixing it, but I always want people to get more than they pay for, even when just trying to support my work, and so I figured this Vacation Album would be a perfect way to pay for my website fees, so the project was still a go, and maybe I could just go to AVN in January a few days early. I was all ready to post about this when my roommate died. Aside from the trauma and depression from all of that I currently don’t have a roommate and the place is nowhere near ready to show. All her stuff is still here. Long story short, is that for all the people who wanted to help out with my website being fucked, or help with my other horrible situation, this is your chance. This album is fairly expensive, but buying anything from my store right now (or signing up for Girls of DBB) would help a lot. 

Anyway, let’s talk about the “Vacation Photos” album. The album will be an actual old school photo album, one of the cheap corny looking ones that you would get at a 1 Hour Photo lab. I bought 10 of them already and they are a mix of different colors so each color will be super rare. Each album will contain 64 actual 4″x6″ prints of my 35mm road trip work. It will be a good mix of nudity and roadside attractions and landscapes. The idea is that you would put it on your coffee table and people would pick it up thinking it’s an actual photo album from a vacation, only it will have a bunch of porn stars getting naked in public in it. Each album will be hand titled and signed on the inside back cover. There will be a VERY limited number of these. The Vegas album ended up being an edition of only 15 and my plan is to do 10 of these unless I sell a bunch this week, but at $150 each I cannot imagine I am going to sell a ton. But they make one hell of an Xmas present. Oh, and they come with a free postcard!

Speaking of Christmas, my plan was to get these to people before Christmas and I am still going to try but it somewhat depends on my photo lab. I am going to finish the edit this weekend and send them to print Monday, so hopefully they will all go out on the 20th, but if not I will ship them on the 30th when I get back from seeing my family for the holidays.

Below I am going to post some examples of the type of photos you will see in this photo album, but keep in mind this isn’t the final edit. I would imagine most of these will make it in the album, but I haven’t made any decisions yet. There are a few more on Girls of DBB too.

So something really horrible happened and I can’t talk about it yet because it’s not really my place to do so, but I can’t think about anything else so I am trying to distract myself with work. I also wanted to get something up today because it might be my last post before until I get back in town from a Thanksgiving trip to DC. So I am going to publish these photos, and promote some shit but all of that feels really pointless right now so I am going to do it quickly.

Here are a bunch of photos of my friend Connie aka Pouty Kitty. I met her at Exxxotica NJ last year, and this year, right before the convention we took some photos in my motel room. I don’t really have much else to say, but she has a great butt and you should look at it.

Also, because I didn’t update in so long because of my website being down there is a bunch of stuff on my pay site, Girls of Driven By Boredom, because I can’t not update that. So there is an exclusive gallery of Lua Saturni, as well as some mostly safe f0r work photos of a model called Weed Slut that I shot for Playboy two years ago that were never published. There are also a handful of extra, more explicit, shots of Pouty Kitty as well. So tons of stuff, and signing up will help me to pay for my website getting unfucked, sign up now. 

Speaking of my site, I still haven’t moved it to a new server, but that’s coming this week…

Okay, now go look at the photos of Connie while I try not to think about anything at all.

I went to the very first Exxxotica convention and I keep going back. I wasn’t even shooting for Exxxotica New Jersey for anyone this weekend, but it’s a big family reunion and I get to see people I only see once or twice a year and that’s pretty great. Plus I end up meeting a bunch of new people and I attempt to take a bunch of photos outside of the convention and it’s always a good time.

This year I only did one photo shoot outside of the convention unfortunately, but I took my 35mm cameras with me everywhere and got a few photos at the Inked Awards and some random late night adventures and handful of photos of Abella Danger getting her makeup done before the convention. I have no idea if any of it’s any good but that’s the beauty of film. 

The convention itself I have shot so many times that I kinda took it easy. I mostly shot my friends on day one and on day two I shot a bunch of candid stuff and day 3 I was only there for a couple of hours so I didn’t shoot much. I should also mention that I did something that I have never done in more than 10 years of being a professional photographer and that is forgetting to readjust my color balance after doing a shoot. It was incredibly dumb and honestly inexplicable but it certainly explains why the first 30 or so photos in this gallery are kinda yellow. I am pretty glad I was my only client this weekend.

Anyway Exxxotica was really fun if not super productive and hopefully I will do some cool shoots in the future with people that I met over the weekend. Also, I had a weird number of really hot girls tell me I looked hot this weekend so apparently losing 30lbs and growing my hair out was a solid move and I just wanna hype myself up a little bit here cause this weekend was also the first time I saw my ex since we broke up and that was super emotional and porn stars flirting with me makes the crippling sadness a tiny bit better. I should probably delete this paragraph but I doubt anyone reads this far down anyway and they just look at the photos, but if you made it this far feel free to hit on me via the internet so that I feel a little bit better about myself. Thanks.

The other day I posted some photos of Evelyn Claire that I shot back in January at the AVN Awards and when I was editing them I realized there was another shoot I hadn’t published either. I had a bunch of photos of Scout just sitting around that I had already edited and just never posted. It made my life very easy yesterday when I was publishing these on Girls of Driven By Boredom.

Scout is great. The first time we shot I got so many photos I loved including a photo that ended up in an art show. It didn’t sell but it’s a great shot and it’s sitting behind my couch right now all framed up and ready to go for the next show or in case you want to buy it. 

I don’t have a ton more to say but some things you should know, 1) I can’t wait to shoot Scout again 2) There are photos of her in here doing topless handstands in the hall of the Hard Rock Hotel and 3) Scout paid more for those socks than I did for the entire outfit I was wearing while taking the photos.
