Well, this Pride season was different than many past years for Me. In past years I would have been organizing and marching and screaming in the streets and planning afterparties and at the club and things like that.
For a little retrospect about what that’s been like, check out this blog post from pride 2020: http://queerporn.tv/wp/supporting-sex-workers-is-a-radical-act-of-queer-pride-a-belated-2020-pride-post/
Well, this year I’ve been drastically changing up My life, and what types of work I take on. I’ve made the rather big decision to mostly close down the photography business, to stop doing mini shoots and quit taking on most client work. Gives Me time to pursue MY stuff and work on some projects near and dear to My heart.
But I still have a handful of things planned before the end of the year.
One of the more important group shoots of the year was the TreasureCams content camp! A two day long content making extravaganza with three locations, and 7 models!
Truly an undertaking!
I had folks in 2 different airbnbs, shooting at My studio, at one of the airbnbs, and at a private lake location I had secured for us.
Folks flying in from out of town, driving in and taking buses in, required lots of logistics.
I cooked for everyone, and provided breakfast lunch and dinner, complete with alternatives for gluten free folks.
When I called and told My father, a professional chef what the menu was, he told Me it was too much to handle Myself and that I should hire help.
I ended up asking beloved Sunny Cheex to help Me out with some set up and breakdown.
Sunny did a very good job! But, I hate to say it, My father was right.
I really needed to have hired help. It was all the schlepping. Back and forth from My house, up and down the stairs from the attic and basement to fetch things, packing the truck, bringing stuff up 3 flights of stairs, packing up the truck again the end of the night, all the dishes.
It was alot.
Some of you may remember I have an old knee injury, from an overzealous pole dance to Pantera…but that’s a story for another time…
I reaggravated it last year walking around Saratoga for too long. And Between the stairs at home, the stairs at the studio and the two flights of stairs and hillside at the airbnb, I really fucked My knee up again.
Here it is a week later and I’m still having to put CBD on it, take antiinflammatories and ice it at night. This bitch hurts.
I was also unfortunately healing from a recent latex exposure when I went into this two days workfest, so I wasn’t in the best of health. It was alot for Me. And I’m now just getting around to editing all the content! So far everything looks great!
It was very special to be able to spend quality time creating and vibing with the TreasureCams crew. A group of queer, like minded sex workers taking their careers seriously. We made some really really good stuff!
AFTER everybody left, I thankfully scheduled Myself one day off, which unfortunately had to be spent cleaning up the airbnb and then prepping for the upcoming film shoot.
Yes, you read that right, consider this the first peeps of My next feature length film. A return to My love for documentary filmmaking and docuporn and artporn. I am making a whole film about one of My favorite performers: Seska! So she came to the creation camp and then stayed for some days after so we could create!
We had a very do-able shoot schedule, and managed to knock everything out, and be done and in bed at a reasonable time each night. A very grandma pornmaking situation.
We shot some interviews and ate some fruits and greens!
It feels great to be working on a big project again!
I forget the thrill that filmmaking is, setting it up, scheduling, writing, schilling, and then eventually…shooting! It’s so nice when it comes together after months of planning.
So, there will be an official press release about this particular film going out, you can expect it next spring.
In the meantime, I have a TON of gorgeous content to share with you of all the TreasureCams models who graced us with their presence!
