San Francisco Vs Driven By Boredom

I spent another day in LA and I ended up shooting Arabelle Raphael in her new messy apartment, meeting up with Ash Hollywood and Charlotte Stokely to do post road trip interviews for the web series I am working on, and then I ran over to Donald Glover’s place where he was working on the new Childish Gambino album. I love all four of those people so it was awesome to see all of them again, especially Arabelle’s boobs. They are awesome.

The next day I headed off to San Francisco. I had never been there before and I was pretty excited about it but I was quickly turned against the city. My first night there I had plans to meet up with two people who both blew me off. I ended up in the Castro at three in the morning eating pancakes across from some friendly gay dudes, but it was not exactly how I wanted to spend my first night in SF.

The next day I had four shoots booked including a 10:30am shoot with Dylan Ryan. I wasn’t super happy about the timing and Dylan’s schedule opened up so we moved it to later in the day. Perfect, I could sleep in. Unfortunately I hadn’t heard from my noon shoot so I woke up early anyway to text her. Evidently she got in a fight the night before and might have to go to the hospital. She said she could probably shoot anyway but then I never heard from her again. I was supposed to shoot with Krysta Kaos at six but she texted me saying she was sick. Two shoots down already. My Bay Area anger was rising.

My next shoot was with Finch Linden but it turns out it takes a fucking hour to get from where I was staying in Berkley to San Francisco because everyone in the Bay Area drives well below the speed limit because they are fucking slow moving hippie assholes. I ended up being super late for the shoot and ready to poison all the US granola reserves. Fortunately Finch Linden was all ready for me and had a well lit apartment to shoot in. I shot Finch naked in public in Brooklyn and I was psyched to get to shoot her again but I had to do the whole shoot in 15 minutes before a bunch of her friends came over for a game of Dungeons and Dragons. Party forever.

After my shoot with Finch I texted Dylan and she was only a few blocks a way and on her way to shoot with me. I loved shooting Dylan the first time we shot and I was really excited to see her again. We bonded in a tattoo shop in Austin a couple years ago but I hadn’t seen her since. As I was waiting, I suddenly got a text from Dylan. She had been in a car accident. She was thankfully fine  and it was the other drivers fault, but she had to deal with the police and get her car towed and suddenly three of my four shoots had been canceled and one was tragically cut short by slow drivers and dungeon masters. I had lost my mind.

I just sat in my car with no idea what to do and was sort of just seething, ready to kill the next person I saw wearing sandals or a tie dyed t-shirt. I drove around Mission Hill to check out the view and kill time until I figured out what the fuck I was supposed to do. Suddenly I got a call from Krysta Kaos. She was off work and Theresa Manchester had randomly shown up at her work. What were the chances? I guilt tripped her about flaking on me (We had previously tried to shoot in Vegas, LA and NYC and every time something came up) and she told me to just come out and we would see what happened. I drove out to Oakland and suddenly as I drove over the bridge my luck started to change.

When I got to Krysta’s work she was missing and didn’t pick up when I called her. I was about to lose my mind when I got a hold of Theresa. Evidently they had all gone to let out Krysta’s dog and she grabbed a change of clothes and was down to shoot with me. I interviewed Theresa about my day in St. Louis with her for my web series while Krysta changed and then we went back to her place for a shoot. Krysta fucking killed it and we shot pretty much inside a billboard on her roof. The photos turned out pretty fucking amazing and the whole thing only took 20 minutes. I was so pumped to get to shoot with her after all this time and to have the shots come out so well.

At this point Tori Lux showed up. I had talked to her earlier and she was going to meet and try to shoot with Krysta but she didn’t make it in time. Krysta had to bounce so Tori and I went to her place, shot in her back yard and then ate some delicious foods at some random diner in Oakland. So suddenly I had photographed three girls in one day and was feeling pretty good about things. I also ran into Roxy Rage at Krysta’s work. I had met Roxy with the Bombshell Brats at a Philly tattoo convention and a photo of her Slayer butt tattoo became one of my most popular Tumblr posts of all time. She had moved to Oakland and was down to shoot when she got off work.

I killed time with Tori until Roxy got off work and we ended up at some super weird Oakland bars and I decided that while I might hate Berkley and San Francisco, Oakland seems like my kinda town. I met up with Roxy and I shot a bunch of 35mm photos of her. I didn’t shoot any digital shots and I am not even sure why at this point, but whatever the case they will be developed at some point and that will be exciting or something. Sorry this is getting so long.

The next morning I decided that instead of going 9 hours north to Portland I would just start moving towards Chicago. I need to be there on Friday so I decided to get a head start. I drove 12 hours to Salt Lake City where I am now. I have no plans on doing anything but sleeping in this town and then getting the fuck on. Gonna try to hit Denver tomorrow and see an old friend or two and then keep it moving. I probably won’t have anything exciting for you guys until I get back to Chicago. Until then, here are some NSFW photos. Enjoy.

Ps. Don’t forget about my sexy mobile app!

Charlotte Stokely In Hustler

Charlotte Stokely is pretty much my favorite model on the planet and I just spent four days with her on my Route 66 trip, but I didn’t get to shoot her until January of this year when I shot her for an article about the AVN Awards for Hustler Magazine. That quick 20 minute shoot while she was getting ready for the AVN Awards turned into a day road trip and then finally into this Route 66 road trip.

A bunch of photos from the first time we shot, and a bunch of photos from our first road trip to Joshua Tree National Park ended up as a massive 10 page spread in the newest Hustler Magazine. I am actually really proud of it and you guys should get a copy if you can find one. It’s the October issue even though it’s out now. I wrote the interview too!

In celebration of the magazine coming out I am going to be releasing the full set of photos I shot with Charlotte at her hotel before the AVN Awards exclusively on the Girls of Driven By Boredom Mobile App. Once the Hustler issue has been out a while I will post the other sets I shot of Charlotte on our road trip, but for now the only way you can see my pictures of Charlotte is in Hustler or on the app.

Here are a few shots to get you excited… now go sign up for my damn app!

The End Of The Trail

Yesterday I drove down to Santa Monica with my friend Crash and ended my Route 66 journey at the pier. I traveled Route 66 from the 23rd of June until the 10th of July and it was an amazing, amazing trip.

I haven’t really had time or Internet since I left Vegas so I wanted update you guys a bit. In Vegas I shot my friend Angel Beau and Coco Velvett. I have been trying to shoot Coco forever so it was cool to finally shoot with her. Not only did I shoot her but I convinced her to drive to LA with me from Vegas. We drove back down from Vegas to Route 66 and hit a few things along the way including a bottle ranch and a giant orange. It was pretty rad although once you get close to LA the Route 66 sort of just becomes being stuck in LA traffic.

I dropped Coco off at her brother’s and picked up Crash and we took Route 66 down to the pier which, of the three different Route 66 endings, is the only one that is really celebrated in anyway. There is a Route 66 booth on the pier and an End of the Trail sign which is a replica of one that was put up by a movie studio in the 30’s and lasted until it disappeared in the 50’s. I got Crash naked on the ferris wheel and under the boardwalk and that was that. The end of Route 66.

It was a bit anti-climatic, especially since I have almost two more weeks on the road but it was still a great accomplishment and I am very glad I did it.

Today I shot a girl named Catie Parker who is adorable and I might try to take on the road trip to San Francisco but I haven’t actually figure out when I am going to leave LA yet. It’s all a mystery but here are a few NSFW photos of the few girls I mentioned in my write up above. Enjoy

Ash Hollywood Day Three

I have arrived in Las Vegas, a two hour drive north from Route 66. Ash Hollywood left last night and I am here for a few days to relax, photograph some girls, and give a ton of video footage to Wood Rocket, who I am doing this web series for. Tomorrow I will drive  back down to Route 66 and taking that all the way to Los Angeles where my Route 66 journey will end and part two of my road trip will begin.

Yesterday with Ash was a lot of fun. We checked out Grand Canyon Caverns which is pretty much just a giant hole in the ground, but it was pretty awesome. After that we went to a giant tiki head in the middle of nowhere and then made our way to Oatman, AZ. Oatman is an old gold rush town that somehow has survived along Route 66. They play up on their roots with wild west type shows and things. It was 115 degrees out and we missed all the fake gun fights, but still spent 45 minutes there. Why? Because the whole town is filled with wild donkeys. Seriously. They just walk around town and you can feed them and hang out with them and show them your ass. It was super weird and kinda amazing.

After Oatman we stopped off in a small down on the border of Arizona and California. It was getting close to 120 degrees out and we were hungry so we hit a dive bar/ restaurant called the Silver Dollar Chuck Wagon where they served breakfast all day. I had steak and eggs and a pancake and bacon and a coffee and it was like $10 and the best breakfast I have had on this whole trip. We hung out with some locals and then finally got on the road to Vegas with only a quick stop in Needles, CA.

So Ash is gone and I don’t know if I can find any girls to make the trip to LA with me, so I might finish Route 66 alone, but I am going to have someone meet me in Santa Monica for one last shoot on the pier where Route 66 ends. After that I am headed to San Francisco and maybe Portland before heading back across the country.

For now enjoy this photo of Ash Hollywood that I took on one of the insanely windy roads you have to drive through in Arizona on Route 66.

Ash Hollywood Day Two

Saturday was pretty amazing. I not only got to see four of the Route 66 icons that I have seen in so many books but I also go to see the Grand Canyon which despite some rainy weather was everything you would imagine. Truly incredible experience.

Ash Hollywood and I awoke in Holbrook, AZ and headed to the Rainbow Rock Shop which is filled with giant fiberglass dinosaurs. It’s one of the most photographed places on Route 66 and of course I got Ash to flash me infront of the dinosaurs. On the way out of town we stopped by the Wigwam Motel which is famous for giant wigwam’s that open up to hotel rooms. Right outside of town I got ash completely naked in front of the famous Here It Is sign. We then headed down Route 66 and we passed Twin Arrow, an abandoned trading post with two giant arrows next to it. Unfortunately it’s fenced off, but we parked the car on the shoulder and hopped the fence and once again Ash got naked.

After all the roadside nudity we got some food at Granny’s Closet in Flagstaff and then headed to the Grand Canyon. It was pouring rain as we drove up 64 towards the canyon but this was going to be my only chance to see the Grand Canyon so I decided it was worth the three hour round trip drive even if I had to see it in a huge storm. Fortunately the weather cleared up a bit and I got to see the majesty of the Grand Canyon. On the plus side it was still sprinkling and that meant less tourists so it was relatively easy to find a spot a way from people for a photo shoot. We were still very close to tourists but we were able to shoot for almost ten straight minutes without getting caught. It was an amazing experience.

We left the Grand Canyon and made a few stops on the way to Siegelman, AZ but nothing exciting. We are staying in an old motor lodge tonight and did a pretty awesome hotel photo shoot that I am thinking about making exclusive to my DBB Girls App. I mean I gotta give you guys some reason to sign up right?

Anyway, it was an awesome day and in a few hours we are going to head as far as we can on Route 66 before taking a slight detour in Las Vegas. Vegas is just slightly North of 66 so I am going to stop there for a few days, check into a nice hotel, and try to recover a little. Ash will be leaving me and hopefully I am going to be able to pick someone else up in Vegas and finish up Route 66, ending up in Santa Monica, CA with a boardwalk photo shoot and a Route 66 tattoo.

In the mean time, check out this NSFW shot of Ash Hollywood naked at at the Grand Canyon!

Ash Hollywood Day One

So I picked up Ash Hollywood from the airport in Albuquerque but her plane was delayed because of a crazy storm so we got a late start. We managed to get lost on several frontage roads, dead ending on one and having to back track a couple miles, but we made the best of it, shooting under Interstate 40 and next to a Cracker Barrel billboard. It was pretty awesome.

By the time we got to Galup, NM it was really too dark to take photos, but there wasn’t much I wanted to see between Galup and Holbrook, AZ so we booked it to Arizona and crashed at a HoJo. Holbrook is home to the famous Rainbow Rock Shop and has more fiberglass dinosaurs per capita than any place on earth. I was so excited to see the Rock Shop on the way into town that I drove over to it and in the dark backed my rental car into a giant geode. I can’t wait to explain that to the rental car place. The HoJo was pretty awesome because it had a hot tub and a coupon for a free half pound of petrified wood from a petrified wood store down the road.

Tomorrow is going to be a much busier day and amazingly awesome because we are going to get to explore Holbrook and hang out with plastic dinosaurs and see the famous “Here It Is!” sign. Oh yeah, and we are also going to the Grand Canyon… but it’s not quite as exciting as dinosaurs!

Below are a couple NSFW shots of Ash on the I-40 frontage roads that we accidentally got on while trying to find Route 66.

Into The West

I have been MIA for a few days, mostly because I was on my own and instead of using it as an opportunity to get work done I used it as an opportunity to sleep. I got 7 hours sleep the last two nights so I am good to go again. I was starting to fall apart…

At the moment I am in a coffee shop in Albuquerque, NM, which seems like a pretty rad town. I got her last night and explored the hip Nob Hill area because Route 66 runs right through it. It seems like my hipster brethren could get along here well. I have to kill a few more hours here until Ash Hollywood arrives. She was in Vegas for the 4th and we found out you could get a super cheap flight here from Vegas so I am gonna pick her up today and over the next three days drive her back to Vegas with stops in two of the towns mentioned in the song Route 66 and we are going to take a detour to the Grand Canyon tomorrow. Pretty exciting.

The last few days have been really fun but it’s a shame I didn’t have a naked girl with me because New Mexico has some of the best signage I have ever seen and it would have been awesome to have had a girl to take her shirt off in front of a giant teepee or giant sombrero.

I did luck out in Amarillo, TX where I found a babe named Annalee Belle on Model Mayhem who was familiar with my work and was totally down to get topless at the Cadillac Ranch, the insane art project by noted millionaire pedophile Stanley Marsh 3. I was super excited to see the ranch, as it is one of the top three stops on Route 66 in my mind, but less psyched to find out Marsh was in jail for sexually assaulting teen boys. We took some awesome pictures and did it with people all over the place. We got caught by one guy, but he didn’t seem to mind so much…

Yesterday I also had an amazing experience at the exact middle of Route 66 in Adrian, TX. There is a restaurant there called the Midpoint Cafe and it used to be owned by a woman named Fran who was the basis for Flo from the Pixar movie Cars. I got food at the cafe but then another Route 66 traveler told me about Fran and how she sold the cafe but now owns the place next door called Sunshine Station. I headed next door and it was pretty much your standard gift shop along the route but Fran instantly asked me about my trip and was one of the nicest people ever. When I picked out a few items and headed to the register I realized that they only took cash. I asked Fran if there was an ATM near by since I didn’t have any cash and she told me the nearest ATM was 30 minutes away. That’s when Fran just handed me my stuff and wrote down her address. She told me to just send her a check when I got home. I was blown away that someone could be that trusting and awesome. I went to my car and got one of the polaroids I took of the Blue Wale and wrote her a nice thank you note on the back. I took a few photos of her and told her I would send her another photo when I got back home. It was pretty awesome.

When I was in Kansas I also met the inspiration for Mater, the tow truck from Cars so last night I rented the movie on iTunes. I am not a big cartoon fan but it was good to relax a little and get all the details that are in the movie that most people who haven’t traveled Route 66 wouldn’t understand. In Cars there is a line about Route 66 wasn’t about making good time but having a good time and it’s really true. Unlike massive highways Route 66 is an absolute pleasure to drive and it’s really tragic that this part of our culture is disappearing.

Theresa Manchester

Yesterday I mostly hung out in Oklahoma City with my old friend Heidi. She was a really good friend when she lived in NYC but I haven’t seen her in ages so we got food and she showed me her city and we found out that a bus ticket back from Amarillo, TX was pretty cheap so she ended up coming on a day of my road trip, but because we left so late and I ended up with some car trouble we only made it about two hours outside of OKC before we decided to stop. So really nothing exciting happened today although Heidi did jump in a pond at some point.

BUT, what did happen is that I edited a full set of Theresa Manchester getting naked in public in St. Louis. She got naked at the St. Louis Arch and then again in front of this giant bottle. I won’t be uploading the set until I get back from my road trip, BUT you can see the whole thing NOW if you sign up for the Driven By Boredom Girls Mobile App.

If you sign up for the app you will get exclusive content and photo sets before they go online and starting with this gallery of Theresa, higher resolution images. It’s all pretty exciting and really cheap. So sign up now and see a lot more of this!

Charlotte Stokely Day One

Charlotte Stokely and I got into way too much insanity today. We got naked in a cave (well she did) we hung out with wild beasts and she drank a half of a bottle of cake flavored vodka and almost poured BBQ sauce on a short order cook.

The highlight of the day was definitely this wildlife sanctuary we visited where they let us play with snakes and alligators and they had tigers and a lion and one of the tigers clearly wanted to murder our tour guide but fortunately there was a cage preventing a gruesome death. The lion seemed super friendly though. They also had emo emu’s and a super neurotic jackal. At the end we asked them if Charlotte could hold an animal while topless and they were super psyched about it and we all took naked photos of her with an albino boa constrictor like she was in a Crucial Taunt video.

The Jesse James wax museum was pretty awesome too, as were the caves and the world’s largest rocking chair and the hot tub at our hotel. All and all a pretty awesome day that I would go into more if I didn’t have to be awake in a few hours because I realized I only have Charlotte for one more day and I need to get her to Oklahoma City by tomorrow night.

After the break is are NSFW photos of her in a cave and her and I hanging out with a snake.
