Rubber Bustle Dress Couture (PICS)

This is the 23rd appearance Lydia Ivy West has made in the Blue Blood VIP. Forrest Black and I shot this in San Francisco and latex couturier Polly Pandemonium was kind enough to donate this fabulous bustle dress for the shoot.

I haven't shot in San Francisco in way too long and haven't been there since December. I'd really like to spend some time in SF soon. I'd also like a new camera. Some new easier to carry lights. And a pony. Pony optional. I think Ivy has a horse, now that I think about it.

San Francisco wild babes are especially invited to fill out the model app at BlueBloodPhoto.com

Alecia Joy Icons (PICS)

Alecia Joy posted to Blue Blood VIP in a set by your truly and Forrest Black called Icons. Forrest Black and I had a great time with her shooting and you all should expect to see lots more of her. Readers will be seeing some select images from this shoot in the forthcoming issue of Marquis, but Blue Blood VIP members get to see the whole thing. Here is a great anecdote excerpted from the Marquis #51 feature on Alecia Joy: recently, Alecia Joy got some metal grinding training for GrindKore from Perish, who we covered in Marquis #43. Alecia Joy is a trooper and she has the scars to prove it, because the show must go on. At a recent, "metal grinding performance [she] ended up giving [herself] a grind burn when a drunk person's head came dangerously close. It was a reflex to pull away when [she] saw the bald head flying by, so [she] pulled the grinder away and consequently missed the metal on [her] outfit and ground two lines into [her] inner thigh. [She] finished the performance and rinsed it out, but metal shards were embedded. Alecia adds that "the owner of the club came by and gave [her] a bunch of drink tickets, but all [she] wanted was for the fire in [her] leg to subside! Part of [her] wanted to sit out the performance [she] was supposed to do after that, but [she] found that the fake blood in the kiddy pool actually soothed the burn." Best use for a kiddy pool full of blood. Ever.

Luci in Devil Horns with Rats - Super Cute Rats (PICS)

This is the 5th collaboration between yours truly and Forrest Black and Luci which has appeared in the Blue Blood VIP. Full series in the members VIP as always. Luci makes a lot of her own clothes and has two of the cutest pet rats ever. Shooting Luci was great and I love shooting artists like her.

Crash and Voltaire (PICS)

I just posted this to Gothic Babes and thought I'd share here too:

Because a few sets of my photographic work generally post every week (not even counting the tons of other photographers Blue Blood publishes), I always want to post more here. So, today I'm going to post a favorite image from two sets Forrest Black and I shot, one of Crash and one of Voltaire.

Info about the clothing designers and all that good stuff in the Blue Blood Contributers Blog, along with TONS of FREE SAMPLE PICS. Both of these are magazine shots, but four full sets of Crash and a fabulous twenty-two full sets of Voltaire are in the Blue Blood VIP now.






PS If, in this terrible terrible economy, there is anyone still getting paid to slack off at work and read LJ, nobody who actually works for a living (or wishes they had a job now) wants to hear any whining about NSFW in a community already tagged as adult.

Yolanda Fuzzy Piggies Slippers (PICS)

I'm sitting here wearing fuzzy tiger paw slippers, in honor of the extremely brief winteresque time period in Hollywood. So it seems only fitting to post this series including Yolanda showing off her fuzzy pink piggies slippers. Forrest Black and I had the pleasure of shooting a few sets with Yolanda in her living room, on this particular day. We shot everything standard high saturation film, cross-processed film, and digital. The digital appears to be corrupt, but I'm pleased to share the film with you all. This is the more standard film process and I'll post some crossed stuff later as well, which should be especially interesting for the photographers among y'all. Whole series in the Blue Blood VIP as always.

Chachie and Ducky Von Ghoulie Deathrock Horror Punk (PICS)

Forrest Black and I first met Ducky Von Ghoulie from the Fuzzbats and his lovely bride Chachie at the old school deathrock club Release the Bats in California. The setting for this shoot is Ducky and Chachie's real life living room. Ducky says he collects all the horror films and models and posters and other memorabilia in his impressive collection because it turns him on. What better reason! This is some of my favorite sort of work to shoot and Forrest Black and I really enjoyed creating art with Ducky and Chachie. Whole series in the Blue Blood VIP as always.

Deathrock TJ Van Shock and Secret Sin (PICS)

Forrest Black and I were thrilled to collaborate with two such awesome individuals as TJ Van Shock and Secret Sin for this photo shoot. In our artistic exuberance, we used two different kinds of film and we shot some digital as well. Which means that we shot work of them together with three different color palettes. This is probably a more common approach for magazine work, but, after some contemplation, I feel like Blue Blood VIP members deserve to get that magazine quality, so I'm going to share the variety of formats. I think this first film sequence is really erotic. Blue Blood VIP membes will of course be familiar with Secret Sin. TJ Van Shock you should know from his stints in Fearcult, Radio Scarlet, and other fine deathrock bands. Or you might recognize him from the Christina Aguilera music video for her song "Beautiful". We've got some beautiful for y'all here.

Crash Bad Girl Tattoo (PICS)

Crash and Antiseptic Fashion have a new dungeon set-up. Forrest Black and I and a number of Blue Blood hotties, including Julie Simone and Rubber Necro, went to a party there this week. So I thought we'd post this set of Crash shot next door to the dungeon. Pretty soon this floor is going to be pink to match a forthcoming Antiseptic line, so this is an ephemeral moment in time immortalized in photography.

Kellie LaPlegua AMF Couture Lemon Tree (PICS) Spooky for Halloween

The very talented Louis Fleischauer stayed up all night before this shoot, creating this extravagant piece of wearable art on the theme of tongues speaking from all angles. If you have the most recent issue of Marquis magazine, then you have seen Kellie LaPlegua modeling this and sharing some of her most appalling domination dungeon tales, but Blue Blood VIP members get to see the whole series. The pets belong to Bradical; I had a concept for incorporating them, but Kellie is a way way better model than Bradical's pets.

Nina Sin Headgear Bondage (PICS)

Forrest Black and I shot Nina Sin showing off bondage gear from Noir Leather and held off posting the whole series here because a shot from the shoot was going to run in Marquis. So Marquis readers have already had a taste of what Nina looks like with her beautiful big eyes and a giant headgear bondage bit in her mouth. Blue Blood VIP members get to see the whole series.

Yolanda Skull Armor (PICS)

This series Forrest Black and I shot of Yolanda is sort of a companion piece to the most recent Erotic Fandom update. The skull armor Yolanda is wearing here, as well as the chainmail skirt, is also from Retail Slut. Her hair is courtesy of the fine folks at Diva Luxe. I'm happy I feel like we managed to capture Yolanda's sleek elegance well. Whole series of all 33 Yolanda Blue Blood appearances in the Blue Blood VIP.

Spiders from Mars (PICS)

With the silver makeup and futuristic glam armor from Retail Slut in this outfit, I like to think of this series Forrest Black and I shot as the Spiders from Mars shoot. I love metal clothing. I decided I kind of liked this image from the nude portion of the shoot as the one shot I could share though, so y'all will have to sign up for Erotic Fandom or Blue Blood VIP to see the metal spider top.

Steampunk Nicotine Lady Clankington (PICS)

I'm really happy Blue Blood is able to publish this special Erotic Fandom shoot by yours truly and Forrest Black. It stars Nicotine, making her fourth Blue Blood appearance, wearing couture from our long-time friends at Brute Force Studios, and showing off one of the new line of steampunk rayguns from Lady Clankington. Special thanks to The Death Knight for the kickass steampunk location. Whole series available in the Blue Blood VIP and well worth it, if I do say so myself. Watch for an interview with the lovely Nicotine coming up. Forrest Black also shot some video of Nicotine and the raygun's creator demonstrating proper product, uhm, placement. Check out the photos and you'll be able to tell where we took a break from shooting them and did the video part and then came back to the photography portion of the show. I think this is a really fabulous shoot and I'm really happy to get to share it with you all.

Busty Corset Vamp Dahlia Dark (PICS)

This is beautiful busty vamp Dahlia Dark's 12th appearance in the Blue Blood VIP.

Other images Forrest Black and I shot of Dahlia Dark ran in Marquis magazine in print, but Blue Blood VIP members get to see complete shoots.

I'd write more about this shoot, but I'm in the middle of cooking a chicken right now. Priorities, priorities.

Beautiful Bald Luci Soaking Tub (PICS)

There is just such a positive sexy free energy shooting in the Pacific NW, especially with a free spirit like Luci. Like me and Forrest Black, she was just passing through town, and we coordinated via email. I want to have this soaking tub in the office. Like now.

Whole series in the Blue Blood VIP.

Blue Blood Beauties Do Frontline Assembly

Blue Blood Beauties Do Frontline Assembly

by Amelia G : July 30th, 2010



The new video for Frontline Assembly's Shifting through the Lens is the fetish video industrial bands always flirt with but almost never do. The Shifting Through the Lens vid stars Julie Simone. In the music video, she plays a hot latex-clad video vixen, a domina, a cameraman, and a fetish director. In real life, Julie Simone plays a hot latex-clad video vixen, a domina, a cameraman, and a fetish director. Julie Simone appears in ten Blue Blood VIP updates to date and she has shot, rigged, or directed dozens more Blue Blood VIP updates. So she was pretty perfectly cast in this Frontline Assembly video and does her performance so very deliciously well.

Shifting Through the Lens is actually . . .

Razor Candi in the Blue Blood VIP! (PICS)

Razor Candi in the Blue Blood VIP!

by Amelia G : July 15th, 2010

I am really thrilled to be able to announce that the first set of Razor Candi has just gone live in the Blue Blood VIP. Yay!

Although Blue Blood receives hundreds of submissions a week and has for many years, I don’t get this excited very often. Heck, I guess we don’t even get to say “yes” all that often, from a percentage viewpoint. I consider what someone looks like in terms of raw materials, but I look at least equally at personal style and attitude and diversity of interests. Although Razor Candi is knockout gorgeous in her photos, I think it is extra-cool that she does her own makeup and styling for her shoots, and, in addition to having her picture taken, she paints and travels and has adventures.

I believe Razor Candi was actually a contributing photographer for one of Blue Blood’s sister sites like six years ago. Pictures I think she shot of Eden Prosper ran on SpookyLinks when it was doing a Spooky Hottie of the Week.

At any rate, Razor Candi has appeared in approximately a zillion publications, including tons of magazine covers. She has a sexy attitude and incredible style, with an artistic eye, and can rock a bunch of different cool looks, although her deathrock one is probably my favorite. I’m honored and pleased that, when she decided to grace the world with beautiful nudes, Blue Blood was her first choice of venue. (Plus this confirms my sense of a just universe where all is right in the world.) Expect to see a lot more Razor Candi in the coming months.</p>

Crash on Blue Blood VIP (PICS)

Fabulous designer Billy from Antiseptic Fashion always knows the hotties and he knows our tastes. So he introduced me and Forrest Black to the lovely Miss Crash. We had a deadline for our regular column for Marquis and Crash was just driving through Los Angeles on her way from Las Vegas to I think San Diego. (She travels a lot.) We got together for a late night shoot and everything just came together really great. The Marquis magazine article has run, although I wish I had some copies. At any rate, so now we are fixing to post whole series of each exotic erotic couture set-up we shot. Here is a sample image from one of them. Whole sets in the Blue Blood VIP as always.

April Flores Lit by Fluorescent Paint (PICS)

One of the most wonderful things about shooting April Flores is that she has a very artistic and experimental mindset. So when I told her I wanted to try out photographing her naked, lit only by the fluorescent paint on a hallway we had wandered through, April gamely stripped down immediately and was good to go. This is the result of our experiment. Whole series available in the Blue Blood VIP.

Erotic Fandom!

Erotic Fandom!

by Amelia G : May 31st, 2010

Seeing the cantina scene in Star Wars was a watershed moment for me. I looked at the motley crew of freaks and degenerates and weirdos and heroes having fun and looking to be productive and I wanted to go to there. I love really over-the-top clothing and I’ve been really enjoying all the great costuming this site lends itself to. People always ask me if I personally own more leather or more latex, but the answer is I own more metal; I love armor.

Blue Blood VIP members have had access to a lot of hot costume content and fiction by top genre writers for years, but, with the launch of EroticFandom.com, there is a place to really highlight this aspect of Blue Blood. The first conventions Blue Blood exhibited at were all SF&F ones. I’m not 100% sure whether my first published fiction work was science fiction or nightclub lit, so I suppose I’ll have to organize my filing cabinets if I want to know the answer to that, but I digress.

Erotic Fandom is a site where goth-industrial punk and science fiction fantasy horror converge to give you super sexy chicks in chainmail, steampunk vixens, ray gun seductresses, vampire beauties, hot cosplay, cool cyberpunk . . .
