Dylan Moore In The Streets

June 18, 2025June 18, 2025

These photos have been a long time coming. I took these photos of Dylan Moore way back in October of 2023. My life was completely different back then. I was still living in NYC and I had no idea my landlord was about to raise my rent 40% in a few months and I would be “forced” to move to the beach in North Carolina. Dylan and I took photos in her hotel room and while we were shooting I mentioned this location that I had always wanted to use but never got the chance to do it right. She was down and off we went to Brooklyn.

At some point in the mid 2010s I was walking around my neighborhood in South Williamsburg and noticed this weird path that went behind the Peter Luger parking lot. I had no idea what was back there so I followed it and it was this hidden little spot next to the Brooklyn Queens Expressway where homeless people hung out and did heroin. Needles and caps littered the whole area, but I saw potential…

In early 2017 I was photographing my friend Ali Weiss for my book Instaxxx and I thought about that secret spot. It was winter and snow was on the ground so I knew no one would be hanging out there and we went back there and took some photos. Ali had never done nude modeling before so the photos were pretty tame, but I really loved them. I just knew one day I would get back there again.

A couple of time I tried to do shoots there but they didn’t work out. I had this idea of having a model fully nude laying on the barrier wall between the exit and the BQE. It was a terrifying assignment. You can hide behind the wall to get dressed/undressed but once you are up there you are fully exposed to hundreds of commuters. I knew I would only get one chance to do it so I was picky with models and we would have to find a day where there wouldn’t be a bunch of people shooting up back there. Things just never worked out… until October.

The day I photographed Dylan it was cold and rainy and perfect for this shoot and Dylan was a great model and was super up for it. We got back there and we shot the exact photos I wanted. Right before it started raining. I couldn’t have been happier. After that we went to my second secret spot, this time right off the subway platform. I wanted to shoot from the streets looking up. It was pouring rain and I probably should have brought a longer lens, but we still got some amazing photos of her up there, fully naked, while rain poured down on her.

I decided the first photos I would post of her would be the hotel shots and I wanted to wait a bit before I posted the ones I was really excited about. But then came January 2024 and I saw her in Las Vegas. We took a bunch of crazy photos of her in her fancy Vegas hotel room late at night. I loved these shots too and decided to post them next. They went up shortly after we got back from Vegas.

So why have these photos not gone up in the year and a half since then? I have no idea. I think it’s partly because I haven’t been shooting much down here and I wanted to spread her photos out. I don’t know any naked people in North Carolina and I haven’t been traveling as much as I thought I would. I didn’t go to AVN this year because there was a hotel strike and I didn’t want to cross a picket line, of course the strike ended just days after I canceled my flight. I did a few shoots in NYC but that’s about it. I haven’t been to LA in way too long so I haven’t shot anyone there, but this weekend I am gonna be in LA and I realized I still haven’t posted these, and it’s time.

Now, the big problem here is that every one of these photos is NSFW and I am no longer posting proper nudity to my site. As I have mentioned before we live in a puritanical nightmare and nipples are against the law now. So if you want to see these photos you have to go to the Girls of Driven By Boredom site and pay a small fee. But the good news is that if you do, not only will you see these photos, plus the two other shoots I did with Dylan, but you will also see literally hundreds of other NSFW photo shoots. It’s an incredible deal if you happen to be into nudity, my photography or hopefully both.

Two NSFW Parties, One Night – 5.16.07

I wanted to go really far back into the archives for this latest Vintage Driven By Boredom post for a couple of reasons, 1) It’s always interesting to see my work from before I had a decent camera and after I had just moved to NYC and 2) Because honestly I need a reason to promote my pay site, Girls of Driven By Boredom. Living in North Carolina, I don’t know any naked people and the only time I do new NSFW shoots is when I am traveling and I haven’t done that in a minute, so if we wanna keep my Girls of DBB subscribers happy, we gotta dig into the archives and I found the perfect night.

In May 2007 I had lived in NYC for under a year and I had been bringing a proper flash into the club for maybe two weeks? (*Editor’s note: I went back into the archives and the first time I brought a flash to a club was three weeks earlier to the day.) I had started Driven By Boredom in 2001 but there was this window of time when it was under construction and the new layout was going to be designed in WordPress (I am still using it to this day) and so I wanted to get used to WordPress so I started a site that just posted random nudes from “alt porn” websites and would use an affiliate code that would like to those sites and I would get paid a tiny bit of money if people signed up. I only ran that site for a couple of years but for years a $30 check would just randomly show up from those days. Two of those sites I promoted were Gods Girls and Burning Angel.

Gods Girls was pretty much a clone of the OG tattooed girls site, Suicide Girls. It featured a bunch of Suicide Girls models who were pissed off at Suicide Girls for their shitty treatment and bad contracts. Gods Girls actually won a lawsuit against Suicide Girls nullifying those contracts. God Girls and Suicide Girls were both just fairly tame nude photos, but Burning Angel was a proper porn site and they just happened to be based out of Brooklyn, and they became a big part of my social circle in my early days in NYC.

So yeah, on May 16th 2007 there were two parties, just a block or two away from each other, that were hosted by these two sites. The first one was at a bar called Sutra for one of my all time favorite weekly parties High Voltage. I would have been at this party no matter who was hosting, but the fact that a bunch of Gods Girls were going to be there was an added bonus. This was my first stop of the night. I met a bunch of girls I knew online for years and I did a nude shoot in a bathroom with a model named Charlotte who I actually reconnected with recently thanks to posting one of these photos on @VintageDBB.

At the party I ran into two friends of mine Apathy & Ariel (see photo above) who were nightlife regulars who also happened to be semi professional naked people so the three of us left High Voltage and went up the block to Lucky Cheng’s for the other party called Porn For Peace which I believe was a fundraiser for victims of the War in Darfur. The party was mostly people from the NYC fetish scene but there were a bunch of Burning Angels there and that’s is mostly who I photographed. Most of the photos from this party are NSFW so they are gonna be exclusive to Girls of DBB, but I left in enough for you to maybe get the idea. Eventually I went back to High Voltage, because again, that party ruled.

Just some bonus tidbits from the night. I had a terrible roommate for three months who left without paying a bunch of bills and this night is one of the only times she ever left our apartment. My old pal Julius Onah was at High Voltage, and you might recognize him from the fact that he directed the new Captain America movie. I had a little cameo in his first movie and it’s so amazing to see what he’s done since then. And honestly I thought I had a third point, but apparently I can’t figure out what that is so just enjoy all the photos.

There are 62 photos from the night in the gallery below and 94 photos in the gallery on Girls of DBB so you might want to sign up for that site. There are tens of thousands of NSFW photos there already and I will continue to hit the archives for more… See you guys soon.

Brynn Michaels In A Minivan

Back in January I was in New York for this big charity event I help run every year and I needed to rent a minivan for it. I was only gonna be in Brooklyn for one night before heading to New Jersey for the event (and my friend’s 40th birthday party which he held at an NJ mall for some insane reason). I don’t have any models to photograph in North Carolina for some reason, so I hit up a few people in NYC to see if they wanted to shoot. My pal Brynn Michaels was down but had dinner plans. My flight was delayed and by the time I would get back to my place it was going to be too dark, but I had an idea. I would drive directly to her from the rental car place, and we would shoot in the minivan.

If you are a long time reader of this blog you might notice that I don’t use studio lighting and I don’t use flash very often for my portrait work, so when I got to Brynn’s and turned on just the car lights I was deeply concerned at how dark it was in the van. I knew I could take some flash photos, but it was too dark to do anything else. Fortunately Brynn had a little mini video light and we shot the whole thing with that. It turned out it was absolutely perfect for the job. I have nearly the same light and I normally bring it with me as a backup for exact situations like this but I didn’t think I was going to have time to photograph anyone since I only had that night. Luckily it all worked out.

I ended up really loving these photos and glad I could get Brynn some photos she likes as well. This is the third time we have worked together and the second time I managed to delete the photos off my memory card before backing them up. That is literally the only time I have ever done that in the 24 years that I have owned a digital camera. So I owed her some good photos… I should mention, just as a quick aside, that Brynn was still healing from a breast augmentation so she’s got some red scars that are healed now. I don’t edit scars and blemishes because I like to think of myself as a documentary photographer, even when I am shooting nudes in the back of a minivan. Luckily Brynn respects my dumb vision and is letting me post all the photos unedited so shout out to her for that. Personally scars and blemishes just make photos feel more real/raw to me and I think that’s what a lot of you guy appreciate about my work too.

Anyway, while I was photographing Brynn I heard back from another one of the models I had hit up. I had mentioned the minivan to my friend Gia as well and she was down. She met up with me at my Brooklyn space right as I was parking. I knew it was going to be too dark in the van and I didn’t have a light for this shoot. We took a few photos at my spot but honestly the lighting there sucks so much I don’t even want to post those photos. We tried to shoot in the van after that and it really was too dark, but we tried. At the end I just used my iPhone light and those came out okay so I probably should have done more than that. After brightening them as much as I could in Lightroom, I ended up with 14 decent photos in the minvian that I uploaded as a little bonus.

So, as we move forward with this new site, all the NSFW images are going to be exclusively on Girls Of Driven By Boredom. This site is just going to have previews of shoots and then you can pay a few bucks a month to see the other shots. Fortunately Girls of DBB has tens of thousands of images on there. Everything that has been deleted from this site is still there, behind a paywall. Sorry, but blame the US government for the FOSTA/SESTA bill.

So click over to Girls of DBB for 55 minivan photos of Brynn, 14 minvan photos of Gia. They each have another full shoot on there as well. In the meantime you can check out this preview gallery below…

PS. I there’s also a 2 minute long video I shot of Brynn in the minivan. You can buy that alacarte without signing up Girls of DBB, but it’s free for members.
