My window looks out over the Empire State Building. Every night they put different colored lights on the cap of the Empire State- tonight it's orange at the base and then different shades of blue up to the top. Every night I've looked out at this iconic spot and thought about all of you. Sure, I've never met most of you, but I've thought about you.
I would go to bed thinking, wondering, dreaming about what you might like. I knew what I liked- what I wanted, and I hadn't quite found it out there. Lesbian sex with cinematic luster. I had been looking for this special kind of pornography for years, so instead of praying for someone else to make it for me, I made it for all of us.
I've worked for almost two years to bring all of this to fruition. Now I give it to you. I hope you love it.
I can't kick off this venture without thanking the ones who came before me- the ones who paved the way, really.
To Shine, who pioneered authentic lesbian porn, I want to say that it was your hard work and your vision that inspired mine. We have different perspectives, but I could not do what I do if you had not done what you did.
Jiz, you have helped me every single step of the way. You're sexy as fuck, and you have a great future ahead; I hope we work together again soon. Madison, I know we differ in our opinions about how to shoot porn and how much kink should come in, but I want you to know that I think you're beautiful, and I really respect you for the craft you bring to bdsm. Plus, I think it kicks ass that you run an art gallery.
Trouble- you're a cutie. Thank you for welcoming me in San Francisco with an open heart when you didn't know who I was. Emilie, we didn't get to work together on this one, but I hope we'll work together some day soon. Bren, thanks for opening up to me and sharing your work with me.
Also, thanks to Marie Angel- the famous fashion photographer that lent to TAXI her keen eye, countless hours and intense devotion to detail. You're a constant source of inspiration for me because of the caliber of your work and sensual images that you are able to capture on film. I know that this is only the first of many more motion picture projects for you.
Thank you to Mariel, my fiancee. You've put up with my endless late nights, my mood swings, my never-ending chatter about work. You have helped me brainstorm, you have toiled alongside me, and you have been the biggest source of love and support that I have ever known in my life. I love you.
Big thanks to everyone who helped contribute to bringing this dream to life: Logan, Damon, Catherine, Sascha, Chris, Ryan, Gina, Carlos, Jordan, Kevin and the Verb crew, Diablo, Tilmor Savant, Ginger Swanson, Lera the Master PA, Mitchell, Anna, Ani, Lizzy, Michael Angelo, Tamberelli Digital, Max Bauer, Mads, Mel, Darcy, Khari, Chad (for listening to me talk about lesbian things since I was 14), my long-departed father (for hiding all that porn between the drawers in the media room) Gabriella Centurion and Leslie Levine (for keeping me sane), Will Akers (for passing on all that cinematic wisdom), my office brothers from S&C, Arlan, Rachel Kramer Bussel, Merryn, all the press folks who have covered me, my besties Erica and Erin, Marilyn Monroe and The Mama, everyone on DigiRomp.com and the entire cast of TAXI.
Much love to you all. Enjoy the porn. There will be so very much more in the future.
