Many years ago I pretty much fell in love with this babe on the via the internet named Chelsea. She was friends with a bunch of tattooed naked babes I knew and kept showing up everywhere. Remember when MySpace was a thing? Anyway, for some reason she was a fan of my photos and we became friends in real life and she actually ended up getting my logo tattooed on her leg.

Fast forward 8 years later Chelsea has become a badass naked babe photographer and has been telling me that entire time that she’s gonna get her DBB tattoo covered up (she still hasn’t!). Chelsea is also a wonderful human so when we were hanging out together at Art Basel in Miami last winter she told me I could take some sexy photos of her. She thought being on the other side of the camera would make her photography better and who am I to argue.

Not only did I get to take somesexy photos of her but I also had probably the best meal of my life with her at Versailles after the shoot. It was seriously epic. Very great day.

Now since Chelsea is a photographer and she was fairly picky about the photos I could use and most of the stuff we shot was in her underwear or just implied nude, but there are some really sexy ones in there and she even let me throw a few properly naked ones up on Girls of Driven By Boredom because she is a wonderful human.

In conclusion, Chelsea is really hot and a great photographer, Versailles in Miami is the best food ever and you need to sign up for Girls of DBB now.

Oh and then click this link here to look at some really hot photos of Chelsea.

I realized recently that the last time I did any Driven By Boredom clothing it was 2009. I figured it was time to step up my game a little bit and frankly I wanted my own black on black DBB Snapback. Fortunately a friend of mine who does the embroidery for another thing I do asked me to shoot his daughter’s Sweet 16 party. Normally I would have said no, but the guy is a good friend and has done a lot for me so I pitched him the idea of a trade. So a few weeks ago I shot his daughters 16th birthday in what was one of the most surreal events I have ever photographed. Did you know 16 year olds love the Electric Slide? And somehow Soulja Boy is still popular? Wild.

(I actually have shot one other Sweet 16 party but it was for current Fool’s Gold recording artist Leaf and Usher was there an Dev and Shwazye performed so it was kinda a different thing.)

Anyway, in exchange for shooting the party I got a couple dozen hats. I got a dozen black on black, six magenta (pink) and six red. Since I am stealing one of each of them there’s very few left so if you want one you better get one now.

The hats are $28 which is a compromise between the $25 I wanted to sell em for and the $30 that I probably should sell them for to justify a shooting a 16 year old girl birthday party.

I shot my friend Bel Vargas in the hats last night but I didn’t really think about shooting any safe for work stuff because I am an idiot so I guess you are just gonna have to deal with some nipples.

Ps. Also for sale on my Etsy store is the greatest photo I have ever taken.

Before I left town for a few weeks I photographed Brandy Aniston in her Manhattan hotel room. Our plan was mostly to take topless photos in Times Square for the public nudity zine I am working. The zine is going to be mostly 35mm so I just wanted to shoot film in Times Square, but I had been trying to shoot Brandy for years so I wanted to get some digital shots too. We only had about 10 minutes to shoot in her room because I had plans right after so we just banged it out real quick.

I posted the full set, including some extra porny images on Girls Of Driven By Boredom before I left town but I had this set all ready to go so I figured I would get it up now. It’s a pretty small set and clearly very rushed, but Brandy is really cool looking so I think you are gonna be glad it exists. Like she’s so porno looking which isn’t normally my thing but there is something about her that makes you just wanna do terrible shit to her but like also go hang out with her at a dive bar afterwards. Maybe it’s just the tattoos and I am that predictable. Who knows but I am glad I finally got to shoot her and hopefully I will get more than 15 minutes next time.

My Gathering of the Juggalos trip directly into vacation was supposed to be over already but my parents are retiring and just sold their home so I ended up taking an extra day and a half to help them with everything. Part of it was just wanting to spend an extra night in my childhood home before some strangers are living in it even though my parents gave my bed away already. But I will be back in NYC tonight and back to work. I got a lot of shit to do and a lot of projects to work on. I have stuff I am working on for September, November, December and January so it should be an exciting couple of months unless I run out of money and have to get a real job.

See you guys back in Brooklyn, but in the mean time go lurk these images and if you want to see a few extra pervy photos of Brandy you can at Girls of Driven By Boredom or just like Google her. She’s a porn star; Her vagina is everywhere.

Ps. Be on the look out next week for our Times Square photos over on my Tumblr!

Hopefully you remember Mike Busey and his Busey Beauties from last year. If not him or his girls you certainly remember Big LA the giant stomached man who went viral after grinding on girls with his gut. They aren’t exactly juggalos but they put on crazy shows and give juggalos lap dances if you buy a t-shirt so juggalos (and photographers love them).

I ran into them when I was shooting Ho99o9 and I saw them getting on the Tilt-A-Whirl. I jumped on it too and took photos of them (which was really difficult) while riding the ride. After that Mike told me he had become a fan of my photography since I got him in Rolling Stone last year and we immediately set up a shot of him and his girls in a port-a-potty. Good times.

His crew is so photogenic I actually had to make an effort not to just spend all my time hanging out with them. As a photographer it’s hard not to want to photograph them and as a scumbag it’s hard not to flirt with half naked fire breathing strippers. I think I managed to do an okay job shooting other things, but I do have an odd number of people in my phone with the last name Busey now.

Also I should mention that Vine star Charlie Classic was there as well. I don’t know fucking anything about Vine since they stopped allowing nudity and I got kicked myself kicked off with a naked Vine titled “Fuck your terms of service”. That being said I had a couple of my Instagram & Twitter followers tell me I should go meet him. Seems like a good dude and also kinda a scumbag which means I like him even more.

Most of these photos were already published in a Noisey interview with me/ conversation about and gallery of Mike Busey and crew. Go read that shit now.

Okay, I am going on vacation today and I thought this write up was going to be three sentences on but I am on an ungodly amount of caffeine so enjoy all the words.

Now click here to see the full, very NSFW gallery of Mike Busey and his Busey Beauties!

Wanted to come at you guys with a late night post featuring late night things. Really I am just trying to organize these Gathering of the Juggalos photos into as few updates as possible so we can all get on with out lives. Plus I am going on vacation tomorrow so I don’t want to be doing this while I am supposed to be fishing. Yeah, I am going fishing. I go every year. Deal with it.

Anyway, this post is pretty much just all the photos I took using the rented flash that I had to drive 90 minutes to get because I left mine at home because I was on two hours of sleep when I packed. Most of these photos are just photos of juggalos but we got some other stuff going on. After the headlining band plays at the Gathering there is about 5 hours of events going on including a dance party every night featuring various DJs and dancers and stuff. Plus there is comedy and wrestling. I didn’t do any of the wrestling this year but I did hang out with Colt Cabana a couple times if that counts for anything.

I also caught Big Jay Oakerson and Judah Friedlander’s comedy sets. Well I caught part of Oakerson’s but left because I don’t hate women or gay people but that’s just me. Friedlander was really funny but I run into that dude in NYC from time to time so maybe our sensibilities are a bit closer in line than Big Jay Oakerson. True fact: Once when waiting for a friend in Times Square a guy promoting a Judah Friedlander show was so certain I was him that he started telling everyone who passed that I was playing that night. I had to tell a dozen people I wasn’t him before I decided to wait inside the movie theater…

Okay, enough of this madness. Let’s look at some photos. They are slightly NSFW thanks to a lingerie contest.

Click here to see a fairly gigantic gallery of nighttime photos from the 2015 Gathering of the Juggalos.

Every year I come back from the Gathering of the Juggalos with a massive amount of naked photos of juggalettes and do a naked juggalette or juggallette porn gallery or whatever it is. This year things were a bit more sparse. Not sure if it was just me slacking on the nudity (I can only photograph so many boobs…) or the new wave of juggalo feminism or what but my naked juggalette gallery is pretty sparse this year. It’s about 25 images and not all of them are actually naked (or juggalettes).

If I were you I wouldn’t stress it too much though, because when I post a the Busey’s Beauties gallery you will get all the nudity you can deal with.  Actually I am gonna combine this gallery and the Busey’s Beauties gallery into one extra naked gallery and post the high res images to Girls Of Driven By Boredom right now.

Girls of DBB is actually 15 off right now using the code “bw” (cause of this black & white gallery) so you might as well go look at that stuff now.

Anyway, go look at the full gallery of naked juggalos and come back later in the week for the Busey Beauties stuff. Got one more post to go up today too so maybe just come back tonight…

Now click here to see 25 uncensored photos of naked juggalettes at the 2015 Gathering of the Juggalos!

I am home after two weeks away so let’s do a second straight contentless post featuring another video that I had nothing to do with. Really I just wanna update you on some stuff and try and hit you up for some cash cause that’s how I manage to pay my rent which is coincidentally due today. Let’s go.

So yeah, I am back which means I gotta deal with an unreasonable amount of shit I ignored for the last two weeks. That includes a few hundred unread emails and some real fun stuff like trying to fix/ buy a new air conditioner. Party forever. Long story short is that I probably will spend the next three days in front of my computer screen in a slightly too hot living room/ office. Once again, party forever.

So while all this really fun stuff is happening I wanted to hit you guys with some photos from my trip. I have a full exclusive set of Raven Rockette that I uploaded to Girls of Driven By Boredom. Raven is one of my favorite models and so fucking hot. I shot her on top of the Superchief LA roof once and we also shot one of my favorite sets of all time at an abandoned waterpark. When I was in LA we were supposed to shoot on the last night I was in town but we had to deal with an insanely drunk girl neither of us had ever met before and by the time we started shooting it was 2am and Raven was super tired and fairly stoned. So instead of taking good photos Raven just showed me her apartment and we spent about 15 minutes shooting photos of her hanging out on her bed naked. The photos aren’t very good, but they are really fucking hot and amateurish looking which is extra hot. So instead of posting them on my site I decided to post them all on the Girls of DBB

Now that that’s settled DBB Etsy. I shot The Extra Ones I Shot Before I Left… while I was in LA and it costs about $300 to develop and scan them all so go buy some stuff cause I don’t really make any money off my analog work so if you like all the film stuff I put on DBB Tumblr you should go buy a zine or something.

Also in my Etsy store I now have a cheap option as far as buying Instant film for me. For $20 you can now get a random nude Polaroid from me. Actually, you could get a non nude one too, but come on. We know why you are here… Anyway, I have a ton of Fuji Instax laying around and if you order one I will sign that shit on the back and send it out to you ASAP. Everyone wins or something.

Lastly let’s promote some shit I have nothing to do with. The first feature length movie Benjamin Moses Smith edited is Two Step On iTunes. It’s called Two Step and it’s an insane thriller that I really think is going to go down as a classic cult film. It’s honestly fucking amazing and I am only being slightly biased. If you like really fucked up movies, you need to watch Two Step. It’s also way better than the trailer.

Okay, back to work. See you guys soon.

I saw Ho99o9 last night and it was awesome. Now let me make this shit about me real quick.

I don’t really like photographing bands. I did almost nothing else for the first decade of my photo life and I just got sick of it. Most bands are easy to shoot and with the “three songs; no flash” rules that most medium sized and up clubs have everyone’s photos look exactly the same. Added to that is the fact that everyone is a photographer now since digital photography is easy and cheap so you have the same photo taken by twenty people every single night. Who gives a shit?

So when a band like Ho99o9 comes along I get excited. Here’s a band that is both fun to photograph, fun to listen to and is also relevant so people actually want to take 11 seconds out of their lives to look at the photos. I fucking love Ho99o9 and shooting them is challenging and really god damn fun.

When I found out their record release party was the day after I landed in LA I was fucking stoked. So last night I went to the Mystery Box, pushed my way to the front and started taking photos in the middle of the pit. Unfortunately I am not the only photographer psyched to shoot Ho99o9 and there were as many photographers at the front of the stage as their were people. I took about 10 shots, 8 of which were blocked by lenses and flashes and iPhones and I gave up and just jumped in the pit to have fun. Of course I still had my camera on me and I went down pretty quick.

I ended up subluxating my shoulder because I was trying to help this guy not get trampled while also being on the ground and also holding my camera in the air so it didn’t break. It felt like my arm had been ripped off and I thought I was done for the night. Fortunately after a few minutes I could lift my camera again and I said fuck it and went back in. I didn’t want my night to consist of a handful of mediocre photos. So I went back in.

By this time most of the photographers had cleared out of the front and were either gone or on the stage. At one point Eaddy was on the ground on the stage singing and the photographers surrounded him and started taking photos inches from him. This shit drives me nuts, especially with the video guys who just hold their camera’s right in front of the bands face ruining the show for everyone.

I took a photo of them all and Tweeted it with some angry caption. I invited Hannibal Buress to the show last night and when he saw my photo he retweeted it to his 500k followers and I got to spend the next hour editing images while arguing with strangers on the internet.

I just wanted to go on this rant because photographers need to check themselves a bit. When shooting live bands or news or events or pretty much anything outside of the studio we have to make choices. Should we try and get the best shot possible or do we need to get out of the fucking way and let shit happen. I don’t think I took the best photos last night and I am sure if I got on the stage it would have been easier to shoot. If I spent the whole show holding my camera two feet above my head I might have got a few nice shots I wouldn’t have had normally. But a show isn’t about the photographers, it’s about the band and the fans. I just think we sometimes need to compromise between getting the shot and getting in people’s way. Sometimes you take the shot at all cost, but if you spend the whole show doing that you are gonna make it shitty for everyone else.

So last night I sublimated my shoulder, bent my knee the wrong way on the stage, got covered with beer and sweat and got fucking birthday cake all over my camera. On top of everything else I didn’t even take any photos I was exceptionally proud of, but you know what? I had fucking fun and I think if nothing else I captured the energy of what was a fucking awesome show.

Fuck it, I am glad Ho99o9 exist and I am glad people want to take their photo. I would rather 20 photographers shoot them than 99% of every other boring fucking band that stands around looking at their guitar pedals. So I am gonna end this rant and try and hang out with some babes cause I am in LA and mostly on vacation.

Now go download Ho99o9’s new EP Ho99o9s Of 1999. It’s free.

And then click here to see all the photos I took of Ho99o9 EP release party at the Mystery Box. (NSFW for Eaddy’s dick.)

NSFW Week ends with a pretty great set from Ava Dalush. Ava is an adorable British porn star that as per usual I met at the AVN Awards. I actually met her the day or two before the awards at a party around 5am where she was hanging out with my old pal Veruca James. She was just so damn cute and seemed totally down to take photos so the next day I took her back to this weird hotel I was staying in downtown Las Vegas.

We took a bunch of photos and you should look at them all. I am on 90 minutes of sleep because my air conditioner broke and the combination of heat and construction outside has made any thought of sleep impossible. The point being is that I have nothing to say but Ava is fucking adorable and you should look at these lovely photos of her.

Oh, maybe I should mention that she had her make up done for the AVN Awards but that’s not her normal look so I hope I get to get to shoot her again without all the make up. As a rule I like shooting people the way they like to look so if the model doesn’t wear a ton of make up I would much prefer to shoot her like that. None of this is important. I am very tired.

Lastly this NSFW Week is all about dumping old content before I head to LA on Wednesday to shoot a bunch more babes, but it’s also about promoting the Girls of Driven By Boredom. Ava is kinda a pervert so you probably want to see the images that are too dirty for this site. Just saying. And for the next 24 hours or so you can use the code “nsfwweek” for 20% off. End of promotional spam.
