Back from LA and what a trip it’s been! I still haven’t gotten the footage back to start editing but as soon as I do I’ll post some goodies here.

I land in LA on Thursday and go straight to the Roosevelt Hotel which is located right on the famous Hollywood Walk of Fame. Not that there is any time to count the stars – the XBiz show and seminars were about to start in a few hours and I still have to get my badge, say hello to fellow industry peeps, and meet up with Buzz and Rachel (who had arrived the day before). It’s already 11 am and time for a drink or two.

I need a moment of peace and the outdoors hotel bar sounds just about perfect. At 28 bucks for a glass of Vodka with cranberry juice I’m feeling the need to bitchslap the bartender but the presence of friends calms me down enough to not do anything that’ll get me into jail.

Buzz calls and says he and Rachel are at the restaurant next door. I pour down the strongest drink in history and make my way there. The food doesn’t look all that appealing so after Buzz and Rachel finish their plates we head back over to the hotel.

There’s a luncheon, I grab a plate of cold meats and processed cheese and us three sit down at one of the tables. We are surrounded by friends, competitors, newbies, veterans, lawyers and people I’ve never met before. It seems the industry gets bigger everytime we go to one of these events.

One of the big modeling agency owners sits down with us but I can’t chat with him because a MILFy lawyer sits next to me and starts chatting. I can’t be rude to MILFs.

It’s close to 2pm and time to get to the seminar in which I’d be one of the panelists. Along with four others I’m talking to a half empty room about internet traffic and search engine optimization. I almost put myself to sleep but overall I think it was a success and people learned something. I certainly did.

The rest of the day is spent drinking and networking. The next few days would be incredibly intense so we went to bed early that night.

But not before we get some bad news – one of the modeling agencies calls and tells us that one of the girls we had booked can’t make it. And it had to be Vanessa Lane, the one I was looking forward to the most.

We try to find a girl to fill in the slot for tomorrow and settled on a cute brunette. She never showed the next day. This has never happened to us before, we have always been very lucky when it comes to models. But we won’t let this blow ruin our shooting schedule. Luckily, Tyler Faith shows up on time next morning and she has personality and sex appeal for two. Buzz shoots photos of Tyler and after two hours it’s my turn to spend some time with her.

Tyler is a blast. Very smart, funny and very down to earth. As usual we have some very intimate and interesting conversations and I have the videos to prove it. Aziani.com members will get to see Tyler Faith like they’ve never seen her before and I think that’s a good thing. I think the dumb blonde bimbo image a lot of these girls have will go out the window after you watch the videos. Of course there’s plenty of sexy stuff too, including a sexy stockings video and plenty of masturbation and dirty talk.

Thursday. Today we are going to shoot Hannah Harper and Kelle Marie. I’m pretty excited after the great time I had with Tyler so my expectations are high. And I’m not disappointed. Hannah shows up first and goes straight into make-up. She’s very cute and a little shy. Can’t wait to see her when she’s more awake and has the confidence that a good dose of make up often provides.

Kelle Marie shows up next. She too is pretty quiet but that changes soon. A lot. Occasionally I peek in the make up room and see how the girls are doing. They’re waking up more and become more talkative. I have a few strategies to help to loosen up and become comfortable with me and the camera. It works and soon I have so much BTS footage that I have to change tapes. We haven’t even begun to officially shoot so that’s very promising.

Hannah Harper is cute. Cute, cute, cute. And pretty. Pretty, pretty, pretty. Kelle Marie is naughty. Naughty, naughty, naughty. She has a potty mouth that makes even me blush. I’m not kidding. Both are very smart sexy ladies with british accents and after some more BTS Kelle Marie gets frisky on video while Buzz captures Hannah’s pure beauty outside. Kelle is a challenge. She’s not flirting, no, she is hitting on me and it takes a lot to keep my cool. It doesn’t matter if the camera is rolling or not, Kelle Marie is on. Got some dirty good times with the lass and after three hours it’s time to switch girls. Buzz now shoots Kelle and I get to spend time with Hannah.

I don’t think there’s a video on earth that has as much intimate and open, honest talk with either Kelle Marie or Hannah. For some of the videos I have them tell me some of their fantasies or sexual escapades that really happened while they pleasure themselves. Works very well, it’s hot and real. I feel honored to have these girls share themselves with me and therefore the Aziani members.

It turns out Hannah Harper and Kelle Marie knew each other from before so they were more than happy to appear together in the Sybian video. Kelle gets off on it first, then Hannah steps in and asks her to step off to ride the machine too. No fuzz, no script, I just let the girls do their thing. And they do it well. Stuff like that makes life pretty easy for a video guy.

We are done at around 7pm and all of us are exhausted. Both Hannah Harper and Kelle Marie had a great work ethic and we all shared many laughs together. We leave the studio together and I hope to see the girls again sometime. After some Mexican dinner Buzz, Rachel and myself trot back to our hotel rooms, ready to take on another day.

Sunday’s lineup is made up of Jenaveve Jolie, currently one of the hottest stars in the adult industry, and Rita Faltoyano, a Hungarian cutie who is as polite as she is naughty. Everybody’s on time at the studio today but I didn’t feel as much of a connection to either one as on previous days, at least not at first.

Jenaveve is working her magic with Buzz while I spend some time getting to know Rita. As I’m going through Rita’s clothes she actually mentions that she is surprised how so few American women wear nylons or pantyhose. I just made a friend. The first video, I thought, simply had to be a pantyhose video and Rita’s eyes light up as I mention this. Excellent. Done deal. She knows how to work it too and all of a sudden it feels like we both were on the same page. The next video sessions with Rita flew by quickly, she’s a pleasure to be around with and never bitches or whines about anything. I love that.

Jenaveve Jolie time. Her skin is marvellous. Her face is marvellous. She’s marvellous. I’m excited to spend some time with this beauty. Once again I just ask Jenaveve to be herself and the videos turn out great. It’s amusing to watch virtually every other adult company out there come up with cheesy scripts for the girls to work through when their real lives are so much more interesting. You’ll see. If you ask the right questions, a pretty girl’s real life tends to be far more interesting than anything a script person could come up with.

It’s now after five o’ clock in the evening, we are completely done shooting and I have to catch my plane back home in two hours. We pack up what seems a billion pieces of equipment, pack up the car and head for the airport. Buzz and Rachel will bravely drive home with our junk. Maybe we’ll get some storage space next time? We were thinking about buying a studio too but we like to be able to change locations frequently so we’ll probably just keep renting studios each time we come to LA.

It has been a very stressful, exhausting, fun, exciting and above all sexy four days but now I’m ready for some alone time back home. I don’t want to see, hear or talk to anyone for at least a day or so. The cab driver who takes me home is a disgruntled, life-weary old fart from Bulgaria. He hates America and is leaving for good soon. He gives me the typical “Americans are all stupid and greedy and blah blah blah”-bullshit speech I have heard countless times from those who just can’t cut it and, instead of taking responsibility for themselves, prefer to blame their misery on everybody else.

“Make your money and then get out”, he says before he gets back into his cab and drives off.

As I walk up to my house I reflect on the past few days. I think about Buzz and Rachel, and the indescribable bond we have. I think about just having spent time with some of the world’s hottest and brightest girls. I think of my cats, my nice cars and I think of the possibilities and the future ahead.

Nah. I think I’ll stay.
