Maya Rue Part Two

Hello we are back and I have some new photos of Maya Rue for you. And by new, I mean new to you, because I shot these back in January when I was at AVN. Maya and I did three photoshoots together back then and I am spreading them out a bit. I didn’t mean to spread them out this much, but we had that whole hack thing and my site was down forever. Weirdly enough these would have been up a week ago but something new was going on with my site and I got locked out. This time it was my host’s fault and their AI support fucking sucks but we finally got through to a real person and got it resolved. None of that is important, we have photos for you to look at.

Anyway Maya rules and if you haven’t checked out the first shoot we did, you should do that right away. Now that you are back, you need to go look at these new photos because it’s actually my favorite shoot of the three. The hotel room I was staying at in Vegas had a livingroom, a bedroom and a bathroom so we did one shoot in each room. Problem solved. I don’t know what it is but I just love shooting in a bathroom. I am sure it’s because I got my start shooting nudes in nightclub bathrooms, but also the photos just look good. Maybe I should just do a zine of bathroom nudes one of these days. Actually, don’t give me anymore ideas I got too many projects in the works…

Okay I need to finish this up because I am going to NYC tomorrow and I got too much to do before I leave.  This gallery is nearly 50 photos, but they are pretty NSFW so you get to see 12 safe for work ones and the rest are paywalled over on Girls of Driven By Boredom. They are absolutely worth the few dollars a month it costs to sign up and you will have access to two shoots with Maya plus probably several hundred thousand other nudes because I am nothing if not prolific. 

So yeah, go to Girls of Driven By Boredom to check out all the photos, or if you don’t value my work and still want to see some sexy photos check out the gallery below… 

Goldie Fawn

I have excellent news for you all, we have new photos of Goldie Fawn!

I met Goldie way back in 2018 through another model and we did this amazing shoot in their hotel room around the AVN Awards week that year. Fast forward to AVN 2024 and I got to photograph Goldie by herself, this time on the roof of my rental car right before the Awards. She walked the red carpet and then we took some photos of her in and out of her dress in the parking garage super quickly, and then she went to the Awards. We didn’t take enough to justify a full post so she ended up in my Girls of AVN update, but that post came out about a month before I redid my entire site, so that post is sadly gone, but on’t worry, all the photos are still on my pay site. Just saying…

Fast forward once again to January and I was headed back to AVN and immediately hit Goldie up. She is just so nice, so fun to be around and and a fantastic model (she can essentially bend in half) so I am just always excited to get to take her picture. Not only that, but I cannot tell you how many models have reached out to me based on her recommendation. She’s just the best and I cannot wait to do it again.

So yeah, this year I shot her in her hotel room after the convention. I think we tried to get some other people to shoot with us but it’s always so hectic there but I am glad we got some one on one photos anyway outside of the quick shoot we did on my rental car. My one regret is that she had these tiny heart shaped pasties on and we kept them on for most of the shoot because they looked cute but when I went back to look at the photos they are kinda distracting and technically not even naked. I knew you guys would be deeply upset about that so I threw in some  bonus 35mm photos we took after she took them off. I would hate to deny you actual nipples like god intended. That being said, I am paywalling them and honestly all the pastie photos in general because am trying to keep this site kinda SFW and I am also trying to pay for never ending problems with the slowly sinking 65 year old house my girl and I bought. So yeah, go sign up for Girls of Driven By Boredom. You can see all these photos of Goldie, all the old shoots we did and probably over 100k other NSFW photos. It’s worth the $6 a month or whatever it costs. I should probably know that. 

Anyway, I cannot wait to shoot Goldie (and all of her friends) again. I also should mention that obviously we are way behind because of the hack, but the good news is that I still have four more shoots I did at AVN to get up, and I have two other NSFW shoots I sill haven’t published yet. So we got plenty of content to look forward to in the future. Okay that’s it. See you guys soon. 

Check out the preview gallery of Goldie Fawn below and then head over to Girls of DBB for the good stuff

Connie Perignon

Okay it’s been a minute since my last proper update on this site. Unfortunately my website has been having some issues and honestly I don’t know what I am doing enough to fix it. Trying to figure that all out but for now I am just gonna try and do a better job of updating it while I can. As I mentioned in my NSFW last post, I shot eight galleries when I was in Vegas way back in January so I have a lot of content to get up. I also shot a ton of film that I am just finally getting around to getting developed. I kept thinking I was going to get to NYC this spring but flights got so expensive and I didn’t have a real reason to go back so I finally just mailed my rolls back to my old photo lab. You can keep me shooting film by sponsoring one of the rolls and in exchange you get to see all the photos from that roll and then you get to pick your favorite and I send you a signed print of it. You could even get a print of Connie Perignon. 

This post is of course about the photo shoot I did in Vegas with Connie but I had to get all that out of the way before I talked about these photos. I met Connie way back in 2020 via Tinder of all places. She wasn’t a porn star back then and we never ended up hanging out but I followed her on socials and it was cool to see her absolutely blow up in the adult industry. We suddenly had a bunch of mutuals and I finally met her IRL at a party I shot for my old friend, the amazing photographer, Ellen Stagg. I ran into her again at AVN last year and when I was heading out there this year I hit her up again about taking some photos. 

She was down to shoot and had some free time during the day because she decided not to sign at the convention. We made a plan to shoot at my hotel across the street but right then I had to help another model I photographed get a pass to the convention. She showed up late and I was scrambling to get her this pass while Connie was just sitting in the lobby of my hotel. I basically sprinted across the street and was in full panic mode because I hate being late, but she was just chilling and was not even slightly bothered I made her wait, which I really appreciated. 

The light in my hotel room sucked but I used the one window in there to backlight her and we played with the curtains and all that stuff which was honestly a staple of my old AVN shoots. I haven’t done any shoots like that in a while and I kinda forgot how nice they look. It might not be my most original work but as you can see Connie is an absolute babe and I think they came out pretty well. I can’t wait to see the film we shot as well because it was one of only two daytime shoots I did at AVN and you know I prefer some natural light. 

Anyway, if you want to see the full NSFW gallery of Connie Perignon, you should head over to Girls of Driven By Boredom, and in the meantime I have a little mini teaser gallery for you guys below… 

Maya Rue

Last month when I was in Las Vegas covering the AVN Awards week I did six NSFW photo shoots and of course I decided I needed to spread them out because I don’t know any naked people in North Carolina so I gotta stack content and then give it to you guys every few weeks until I go on another trip (I should be back in LA fairly soon). That being said, I didn’t mean to wait this long to give you some photos from the trip… in fact, these photos of been up on Girls of Driven By Boredom for over a week.  I was all ready to post them here but then Robert Duvall died and I wanted to write a post about my relationship with him but that post took a few days and then I was suddenly, inexplicably, locked out of my website for a few days and now here we are, finally back here, ready to share some fun pictures with you guys. 

So meet Maya Rue. I met her at AVN two years ago totally randomly. I was at some insane party at some weed company’s Vegas mansion or something and I was photographing someone I just met topless on a basketball court when this cute porn star started peeing next to us. I jokingly pointed my camera at her and she told me to actually take the photo so I did and she gave me her IG account so I could send her the photo. That was pretty much our only interaction but her posts have appeared in my life over the last two years and I honestly just became a fan of her outspoken left wing political beliefs. She also happens to be really hot and makes music so what’s not to like?

Anyway, I ran into her in Vegas and I was like “hey I met you at that party two years ago and I took that photo of you peeing” and she was like “that photo is my Venmo photo!” which is honestly incredible. Anyway, we scheduled a shoot on the last day of the AVNs which I try never to do because people are flaky as hell when you are partying for four days straight so I try and get people to shoot as soon as possible. In fact, two other people flaked on me that same day. Fortunately for me, Maya did not flak even though she was super sick. I thought I had a good location but it fell through so we ended up walking back to my hotel. I had already done two shoots there so I wasn’t really sure what we were gonna do, but I knew I would make it work. 

Not only did we make it work but we did three shoots! We shot on the couch, in a bathtub and on one of the bed. I think this one is my favorite of the three but they are all great. Turns out Maya is an incredible model and fun to shoot with even though she was super sick. I kinda feel like we killed it even though the lighting in the hotel room sucks. I can’t wait to see the 35mm stuff we shot with flash. I deeply want to shoot her again with natural light and fortunately she lives in NYC and I am there all the time so hopefully that will happen soon.

The first of the three shoots is up on Girls of DBB now, and it’s extra spicy because she wanted that kinda content for her OnlyFans and who am I to say no? 

So yeah, click here to see all the NSFW photos or just check out the kinda safe for work preview gallery below and come back for a ton more photos from my trip to Vegas last month…

2026 AVN Awards Week

In January of 2008 I flew to Las Vegas for the AVN Awards. I had no real reason to be there, but my friend Doug was up for an award, the Burning Angel crew were gonna be there and my friend Jess was DJing some late night sex party. It seemed like a weird time so I booked a cheap hotel room at the Circus Circus and went out there. The next year the Village Voice/LA Weekly sent me out there and from then on adult sort of became my beat. I have covered the AVNs for Vice, The Daily Beast, Complex, Playboy, Hustler, Penthouse and even AVN themselves. I know I am forgetting a few, but it became a yearly trip that was half money making and half content acquiring as I would always do a bunch of photo shoots while I was there. I went every year from 2008 until 2020, but I had only been back once since then, but I returned this year. 

This was the first time I ever went to the AVNs without a client. I have spent the last six months buying, renovating, and moving into my first (and hopefully last) home. It’s been a huge undertaking and very rewarding, but also I have barely taken any photos and it made me a little stir crazy. I figured AVN would be the perfect excuse to go take a ton of photos, see a bunch of friends and return with a bunch of stuff to share with you guys and of course all of that happened. I used some airline miles and booked a cheap hotel across the street and I was on my way to Vegas…

Because I wasn’t shooting for a client, I kinda half assed my coverage. I just have so many photos of the AVN Expo and I hate shooting red carpets for the actual awards so I just focused on seeing friends, scheduling photo shoots and trying to meet new people to photograph. The adult industry really feels like a family to me, I have had two long term relationships with people I met in the industry and some of my favorite people on earth work(ed) in adult. I ran into so many people this week I have known for almost 20 years. I hadn’t seen Tommy Pistol all week and I ran into him as he was exiting the Awards. We gave each other a big hug and caught up for a second before I asked him what award he won. “Best Actor” he said as I gave him a high five. It’s very silly to be happy for someone I haven’t seen in a couple of years and it’s not like we were ever close friends or anything, but we met when we were kids and I am just proud of the guy for everything he’s done in adult, while also not being a piece of shit. There are so many people like that I was so happy to see including people I hadn’t talked to in a decade. I sort of felt like I wasn’t really part of that world anymore, but people were happy to see me and was just happy to be back. 

Anyway, with all that sappy bullshit out of the way, let’s get into the photos.  As I said I sort of half assed it, but I still have more than 150 photos for you to look at between the convention and the night of the awards. More importantly I did six photo shoots (see a preview here), with a total of eight sets that I will have for you in the future. I also shot a ton of film that I am pretty excited about so if I do a film dump post you will probably get a total of ten updates from last week. 

As far as the photos go, I think the convention stuff speaks for itself. It was nice to be back at the Hard Rock which is now the Virgin. It’s weird being in a place that is very similar to a place you have been a million times but slightly different. I have photographed so many adult conventions and it’s all kinda the same. I get a few portraits, especially of friends, and then I mostly try and shoot the candid stuff, especially people taking photos. I made a zine that is like 50% photos of people taking selfies, so it’s sort of my thing. The lighting sucked in there, but I am over flash and wasn’t getting paid so you are just gonna have to deal with it.

Back in the day I had great access to the awards themselves, but these days AVN has a deal with Showtime so no press is allowed to shoot the awards outside of the AVN photographers. Maybe one year I will work for AVN again in exchange for access or something. But yeah, I hate shooting red carpets. Why would I want the same photos everyone else has? I did it a few times back in the day but never again. So instead I just hung out in the hotel before the awards and got people as they were waiting for the red carpet. When the actual awards were happening I took a million photos of Maya Rue that I love and then I came back and photographed people as they were hanging out in the hotel after the awards. I still got a bunch of photos of people in their outfits and they weren’t on the step and repeat, so I am pretty happy about it even if I didn’t shoot a ton. 

Before I go I also need to mention that all these photos have been up on Girls of Driven By Boredom since yesterday including some bonus NSFW shots that I didn’t feel comfortable posting on main. Today I also uploaded previews from all six photo shoots I did: as mentioned, Maya Rue as well as Connie Perignon, my old pal Goldie Fawn, Desiree Dulce (who I have been trying to photograph for six years), Tat2 Barbie who I met at the Gathering of the Juggalos, and lastly a photo shoot I did with Emma Starseed and Olivia Wildin in their AVN dresses. Go to Girls of DBB now to see all that stuff!

Okay so yeah, I think that’s that. I really did miss AVN and I feel like I need to go shoot an Exxxotica or something or at the very least get to LA again soon. I love all you guys and wish I hung out with you more. Oh, and fuck ICE.
