Norman in Ventura, CA

Over the weekend I went on a return press trip to Ventura, California. It is just an hour north of LA. The trip was great. I got to be around some great writers from the state and have all my meals taken care of. Room service in the morning and fabulous restaurants for lunch and dinner. And lots of drinks!!! But the highlight of the trip was kayaking in the harbor. The deadly rain cleared up just long enough for us to enjoy the simply joy of rowing a boat.

Adult Entertainment Expo Photos

I think these pictures speak for themselves. There was something for everyone at this tits-ass-pussy-cockfest in Las Vegas! Best of all I came home with a bag full of free porn, a few very cool (and dirty) tshirts, and a gorgeous coffee table book. Not bad.

Hustlaball Las Vegas 2008

As further proof of how crazy I am, I recently went to Las Vegas to provide media coverage of the Hustlaball for PinkMafiaRadio.com. The Hustlaball is an annual party with a whole lot of pornstars, strippers, and rentboys letting loose. It was a really awesome event with lots of eye candy and mini-performances from pornstars like Jake Deckard. They even had this crazy instant photobooth that looked like a bathroom stall that we all took crazy photos in.

Kurt Brown Photoshoot

So thanks to everyone for being patient. Here are my shots from my shoot with the fabulous Kurt R. Brown. I have known Kurt for awhile now and I was very excited to finally work with him. We shot in downtown LA in some of the grimiest places we could find but he captured the unique beauty of the surroundings. Enjoy

Avenue Report

I recently started freelancing for a magazine called The Avenue Report. It's a new publication for black men. Think Black Details, sorta. It is a lifestyle magazine so the topics range from travel to entertainment to celebrities.
