Speaker 2 (00:25):
Hello everybody, Welcome back to Holly Randall. Unfiltered art model
turned adult film star Nicole Vont has lived a life
as bold and uncensored as the images she creates. Nicole
says she's explored her body and sexuality her entire adult life,
viewing her adult entertainment career as a natural extension of
that curiosity and experimentation. From posing completely naked on icebergs
(00:48):
to attending space camp twice, her adventures are as eclectic
as her resume. In this episode, we'll delve into how
Nicole turns desire into art, the wild stories behind her
travels and shoots, and what she's learned from a career
that spans fine art nudes to hardcore Welcome.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Nicole, Hello, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
You're so welcome. First of all, I feel like I
would be remiss to not mention the Shrek sweater.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Yes, yes, I don't know why he's yellow, but this
is my off brand Shrek sweater that I love, and
I was so glad to have a reason to wear
it because it does not get enough attention.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Are you like a massive fan of Shrek? Where did
that come from?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
I do love Shrek.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
But I actually found this at a Buffalo Exchange in
Santa Monica when I was there for my birthday a
few years ago and just thought it was really cute
and I have had so many people comment on it,
and I really thought that it just needed more screen
time and more attention because Shrek is amazing.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
For some reason, that makes me think of like Halloween. Oh,
there's a Shrek filter that somebody used on me when
I was shooting for OnlyFans, and it was very realistic looking.
I actually just wrote on my phone somewhere.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Did it make you want to be green?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Not at all. I was very very happy. I was not,
but it was a very good filter, But I was.
It was kind of disturbing because I was also naked,
so I was.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Like, mm okay, where but yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Speaking of since Halloween's coming up, just like before we
get into all like the sex stuff, are you dressing
up for Halloween?
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I am dressing up for Halloween.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
I have really gotten into cosplay this year and so
I have made over the past few months a ton
of different costumes. So I definitely have LeBlanc from the
Leak of Legends that I'm really excited about. I just
did an Ezma from Emperor's New Groove look, which I'm
really excited about. And I also did Natalie Portman's character
from the movie Closer when she's in the strip club.
(02:37):
And I haven't decided which one of those I'm going
to use for actual Halloween, but it's Halloween all months.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I'm gonna wear them ahole month.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I have no idea who any of these people are.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Oh my gosh, Okay, research team, let's go in the comments,
say who your favorite character is. You've really never seen
The Emperor's New Groove. No, you should watch it. It
is so funny.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (03:01):
It's an animated movie from the early two thousands.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Marsha just had to like stick her head out to
give me a dirty look.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
How can you not note it's such a great movie.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I thought it was. It's a cartoon.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
It is a cartoon.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
It's an animated movie and it's about I don't know
if it's like inc and Aztec or Mayan, but it's
about an emperor who is kind of a problem and
he goes on some crazy hijinks because of his advisor, Izma,
who is voiced by Eartha kit Which she is such
an amazing voice and amazing person, and it is so funny.
(03:36):
The characters are incredible, the lines are incredible. It's an
amazing almost there's some slapstick elements about it, but it
also has a lot of heart. It's learning to be
a good person, which is something we could all use
more of.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I have a four year old. You should not seen it.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Watch it with your four year old and get back
to me. That is your homework for next time.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Okay. So, because do you want to hear because I
have a four years ol, do you want to hear
who I'm going to be for?
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm guessing someone from Frozen? No, that was two years ago? Okay,
and actually I didn't did I?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yes? No, I did dress up for that. I got
a very intricate, expensive costume for Frozen was two years ago, I.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Was okay, Okay, Okay, so that's old news.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yes, that was two years ago. She's over Frozen.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Okay, Okay, too old. You're right, four years is two years.
It's too old for it.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I'm Flor de la Clur from Harry Potter.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Oh, that's a beautiful costume.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I know, my little hat. Yeah, I haven't gotten it.
I haven't gotten it yet. I really hope it gets here.
I hope it fits me.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Oh, that's always the thing.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I had to order it from I think, like Korea. Okay,
And because of the sizing, I had to order an
xx L because of my boobs.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh no, your boobs are too big.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
It was literally an XL and xx L.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I know. So I'm obviously gonna have to like take
it into but yeah, so anyways, it's hard.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
To be so hot, you know. Oh god, I know,
it's really struggle for you.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I'll post it if it looks halfway decent, great. If
it doesn't, then I won't. What do you normally do
in Halloween? Do you like go to parties? Do you
hand out candy? Do you go trick or treating?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I live in a really remote part of the city
that I live in, and so there are no trick
or treaters coming down my road.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
No one can find me.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
It's it's obviously ideal ninety nine point nine percent of
the time for Halloween. I'm not a huge spooky person.
I like spooky stuff, but I don't do scary movies.
I don't do anything like that, but I do love
a costume. So usually I'll be with my best friend
who lives here, and will go out to like some
immersive haunted theater was really cool that we did last year,
(05:55):
sort of those sorts of kinds of things. I'm a
theater nerd, so I love to go. I love seeing theatre.
I love seeing immersive stuff. And I think we might
walk around and see all the houses that are decorated
for Halloween, because I know there's some neighborhoods in LA
that go.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
All out and I love to see that. Yeah, there
are definitely some that are like, if you don't decorate
your house, it's kind of there's some There was somebody
who bought a house in one of those neighborhoods and
literally like the decorations came with the house. I think, Oh,
like the owners like, I mean, that's kind of nice.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Then you don't have to pay for them.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Yeah, maybe it was part of the deal.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It's part of the hoa Halloween sections.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Hoay's out here to be crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Are they?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Oh I'm so glad I don't have one.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Sounds stressful, all right, let's get to the thing that
people are probably here for, the nitty gritty, the nitty gritty,
So let's talk about how you got started in the
adult industry.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Getting into the adult industry was kind of just a
natural progression of all the things that I have been
doing for the past fifteen years. I started out as
like a nude model, and I was always interested in
erotic or explicit content, and I've been doing that kind
of work on my own freelance or for artistic projects
for a really long time. And then last year I
(07:13):
just passed my one year conniversary. But last year I
was interested in getting into it. I felt like I
was in the right place physically, emotionally, mentally to deal
with the industry, and I reached out to my friend
Casey Calvert, who is so amazing. She's so knowledgeable about everything,
and I just asked her a bunch of questions because
(07:33):
I didn't actually know what the lifestyle was, like, I
know how to have sex, I know how to have
sex on camera, but I didn't know what else was required,
and I wanted to make sure that they were things
that I could do. So I wanted to ask about
what times are things usually happening. Do I need to
be up by certain hours, like do I need to
be in LA or do I fly down for things?
(07:55):
And so she answered a bunch of my questions and
at the end, she very kindly was like, I will
put you into a touch with my agent, with Mark Spiegler.
And I've known about Mark tangentially for a long time.
I read Asa Kira's memoirs, which were awesome, and she
mentions him in there, and so I knew about him,
and I knew about his status in the industry, and
(08:17):
so I got in touch with him. He asked me
a bunch of questions and then he was like, next
time you're in LA, if you.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Want to have a meeting, we can do that.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
And I literally looked to see how many miles I
had on my account. This was on a Friday. I
flew down on a Monday, met with him on Tuesday,
and it went really well. We talked about a bunch
of different stuff. I met George and he wound up
taking me on a go see to Vixen and that
went really well. And so from there it kind of
just started snowballing and I was coming down the next
(08:48):
month to start doing scenes.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Wow. So, first of all, having someone like Casey Calvert
as an ally is amazing. She's literally one of my
favorite people in the industry. I love her so much
and a wealth of information and so intelligent and so experienced.
So that's what a great like you know, introduction. You
said that you were in the right place like mentally,
(09:12):
So what was that? What did that mean to you?
Because I feel like a lot of people get into
the industry, not a lot of people, I don't want
to say a lot of people, but I do know
people who get into the industry and they're not ready
and then they regret it later or they wish they
had waited. So what did that mean to you being
like ready for it?
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Well, first of all, I was already on the West Coast,
where for most of my life I lived on the
East Coast. I'm from the East Coast and getting into
porn wasn't really an option because so much stuff is
in LA and so that was just never really a
tangible thing to me. And I think also just I
started doing porn a lot later than a lot of people.
(09:54):
I really waited. I felt like till I knew myself
and my boundaries really well, I knew what I was
interested in. I knew that I wanted to do this,
and I wasn't doing it out of a sense of
something that I needed, but something that I wanted to do.
And that's a very privileged place to be in. But
I feel really grateful that I was able to make
(10:17):
that choice.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And you thought about obviously, like the consequences and everything
that would come with it as well.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
I had already been naked on the Internet for over
a decade, so.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Really doing porn.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
There is a difference between nude modeling and porn. But
to the front ladies at church, the little church ladies
in the front row, there's not really a difference to
them between showing your titties on the Internet and sucking
dick on the internet. So they were going to be
anti what I was doing regardless. So I had already
(10:52):
accepted that and thought about that, so I wasn't coming
in without that knowledge.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
So tell me about your first What was the first
job that you got booked on.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
So the first scene that I did, I it was
for Team Skeet, and the very first one was actually
a Halloween based scene which was very fun and lots
of props and silliness, which is something that I love.
I love incorporating humor into porn especially. I just think
(11:23):
that it's nice to have that levity. And I shot
that scene and then I actually had three other scenes
booked with Team Skei that week, and so I wound
up doing four total scenes in that week long span,
and they were all really great, Like the talent I
was using was pretty nice, and the videographer photographer was
(11:46):
really nice. Makeup was really sweet. So it was honestly
very easy for me. There are a couple things looking
back that I'm like, that probably was something that I
should have thought a little bit more about. But what's
hard about this industry is even though I was very prepared,
there are things that you just can't know until you're
in it. And now that I know those things, I
(12:10):
look back on it and I'm like, I would have
done a couple things differently, But I don't regret it.
I had a really good time and I'm glad to
keep going with it.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Can you say what those things are that you would
have done different I.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Don't really want to dig into that kind of stuff.
I think it's just knowing what standards are in porn,
and I was not as aware of what behaviors are
acceptable and not acceptable, And now that I was more knowledgeable,
I was like, oh, there were some things that happened
(12:43):
that aren't as normal as I thought they were. And
that's just something that you kind of have to learn.
And it's something that if I knew someone who is
going into porn, I would make sure I told them
because I wasn't told it.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
So along those lines, if there's you know, someone watching
a girl that's looking to get into porn, what advice
would you give them? Is there anything in particular that
you think that they should really think about before they
get into porn, things that they should look into.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
If you're going to get into porn, I think it
is really important that you know your boundaries ahead of time,
know what you're willing to do, what you're not willing
to do. It's really easy to get swept up in things,
wrapped up in the entire experience, and it's just good
to have a really strong sense of self and sense
of boundaries going into this job. And I would say
(13:34):
that for any gender, you just have to know enough
of yourself and be self possessed enough that you can
stand up for yourself, advocate for yourself. Don't be afraid
to advocate for yourself. I would say that's a huge
part of it. If there's something that you don't like
or don't want to do, push back. You can do
it in a way that's not going to prevent you
(13:55):
from getting work, and it will help preserve your mind
and your spirit.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I'm actually curious because you know, I stopped directing like
two and a half years ago, and when I you know,
at the end of my directing, I mean, I was
only shooting for like Alu brands, so Twisty's and Browsers,
and they always have talent assistance on set, and they
always have boundary checklists. Do all of the brands do
(14:21):
the same thing? Do they follow the same guideline or
is is it just mixed?
Speaker 4 (14:25):
There's usually I'm trying to think, I think at this
point and port and again, I've only been in the
mainstream for about a year, so I'm not the most
knowledgeable person. But I think for the most part, most
companies at this point have at the very least a
check in that you're doing beforehand. Consent is talked about
things you want to do, don't want to do, and
(14:50):
some companies will send you an email afterwards asking about it,
because the other hard part is that, especially if you
just came or had a really intense e, you're not
necessarily in your full mind, and maybe afterwards you realize that, like,
oh there was something that I didn't like, or you've
just thought about it more and you're like, oh, this
(15:10):
did make me a little uncomfortable, and I didn't realize
right afterwards, And so some companies will email you afterwards,
and that's nice to be able to give feedback where
it's not in front of the person that you just
performed with or performed for.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Yeah, that's always like and I think a lot of times,
especially if people don't have like a ton of sexual experience,
come into the industry, they may not know what they
like and they don't like until they do it.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Sometimes they don't do it for the first time until
they're in a scene, and so it's like they learn
about themselves during that process.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Yeah, and I definitely think you can learn about yourself
in porn, like through porn or through any kind of
art really art or performance. But it does help to
have a decent amount of sexual experience. Before you go
into it, so you aren't making those realizations when the
stakes are higher.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
What are some of your favorite scenes that you've done.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
I got to do a Slade scene with Valentina Nappi,
who is just one of the coolest people, so down
to earth, so awesome, really fun to be around.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
And we got so dan thinks.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
I love her so much. I wish I could hang
out with her more. I want her to be my friend.
We got to do a scene together where we're cat
burglars invading this rich guy's house and then we find
something special that we get to use on each other
in his safe, and there's this really fun part where
I'm like cracking the safe with the technology on my
(16:38):
iPhone as if and that was so much fun.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I had such a great time with that.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
I did that one for Slade, and then I also
did another scene for also for Vixen. I did one
for Deeper, and I love working with Deeper. I am
a fetishist down to my core. I love kinky stuff
and I just love the Deeper team. That entire team
is so awesome and fun to be around. And I
(17:05):
got to do a really fun scene with Dante Cole
where he is a writer, and I am this kind
of evil.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Hotelier.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
I own this hotel that he's checked into in order
to write his book, and then I give him some
very devious inspiration while he's writing.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
So this is very fun.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
So you said you're a theater NERD. Yes, so you
have a theater background. So do you prefer shooting scenes
that have acting incorporated?
Speaker 4 (17:37):
I love doing scenes. We're acting is part of it,
but it also doesn't have to be. I really just
enjoy the entire process. I love having sex. That's why
I'm in this industry. First and foremost. I love having sex.
I love experiencing other people's bodies. I love playing around
with desire and all of those kinds of things. So
(17:58):
I love getting the chance to act, but I also
don't need it. I think there's a time and place
for a really fun gonzo scene where we shake hands
and we get to it. I am an equal opportunity person.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
That's the great thing about porn. There's something for everybody.

(19:18):
so tell me a little bit about that, Like what
piqued your interest in photography and when did you start
doing that.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
I started doing photography gosh, when I.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Was in middle school.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
I would set up little tableaus and have my sister
pose for them, and that was really fun. I started
doing self portraits when I was in high school, and
I always had an interest in it. I think because
I don't have the best memory and what I love
about photography is it captures a moment, It preserves a moment,
and you can refer back to it. It's something that
(19:52):
I find incredibly valuable in my life in general, and
I just enjoy the art of making a beautiful photograph.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
I've always been drawn to that.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
It's so weird that you said that, because that's always
what I say. It's like you freeze a moment in
time that will never ever occur again. And I, yeah,
I also have like an obsession with time, like the
passing of time. I have like because I have a
great fear of death, and which we don't have to
get into all that.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
So we can get into it.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
I mean, I find people who are afraid of death
so fascinating because I, of course I don't want to
die anytime soon, and I really enjoy being alive, but
I also am glad that I'm not going to live forever.
I think immortality is for the week, honestly, because I
(20:40):
think that you it is only through death that we
can truly appreciate of what a lot of what life
gives to us. And so I'm afraid of the pain
of dying for sure, and seeing someone else die would
be truly horrible. Someone I know and love would just
be truly horrible. And I know that grief will come eventually.
(21:01):
But at the end of the day, I think that
there is a relief and a stillness that comes from
death that I don't think that there's anything to be
afraid of in that way. But I'm curious, why are
you scared of dying?
Speaker 2 (21:14):
I just think, well, I agree with you. I don't
want to be immortal either. The idea of like living
forever seems exhausting, right, thank you, But I also don't
want to die. Just the idea of non existence is
really I think it's the fear. I think it ultimately
comes down to the fear of the unknown, right, Like
how can I just not exist? How can like there
(21:35):
just be nothing? You know what I mean? Like that?
Like that?
Speaker 3 (21:40):
How do you feel about space?
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Then?
Speaker 2 (21:42):
I don't like it.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
This is so interesting to me because I think a
lot of people who don't like that vastness, that unknowingness
of death also do not like space because it has
a lot of space.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
I would go to space in a heartbeat. I would
love to go to space.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Fuck that.
Speaker 4 (22:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
See, I think it's so weird because I actually was
going through my old podcast and I was like kind
of re editing some reels and I came across a
podcast I did with me and Malkova and we had
a long talk about this about death, and this was
actually I was talking about my dad and how his
health was feeling. And this is before he died, and
he died like a couple of years ago, and so
(22:24):
it was kind of weird to watch it now, like
on the other side of that experience. And I had
just talked to him about dying when I did that
podcast with her, and I had asked him if he
was afraid to die, because I knew like it was coming,
and he told me that he wasn't afraid of dying
and that he felt that, you know, his life was
(22:45):
like the small blip on you know, the vast you know,
on the vast like line of eternity, and like that
brought him comfort that like he was just a speck
of dust in the universe, which I was like, how
was that comforting to you? Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
I also find it very comforting the idea of just
not existing anymore.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yeah, I think I think you and Hammer were like
aligned in that a lot of in a lot of ways.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
But again, this is all just a thought experiment for me, right, Like,
when it comes time, who knows how I'll feel.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Right, I mean, I remember when my grandmother was at
the end of her life, like she couldn't wait to die,
you know, and she would say every morning she would
wake up and she'd be like, I can't believe I'm soul. Yes, Grandma,
she would just be so bummed. She's like and live again.
(23:40):
I know. She was like, come on, she's like all
of our mental faculties. Like she you know, she just
like her body was failing her and she just hated that.
And she also like, you know, her husband had died
and she just was ready to go. And she actually
had a wonderful death. She like woke up in the morning,
she went down to like the river. She's lives in
(24:00):
South Africa, like, watched the kids play. I have a
huge family over there, had like her watered down half
whiskey at noon, went to take a nap and died. Wow.
Great way to go out.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
That's a great way to go. Yeah, absolutely absolutely.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
But yeah anyways, so so yeah, so I've had this
like obsession with time because like every time I go
to bed, I think about, like that's another day that's
like been stolen from stolen from you, like and like
how like what did I achieve today? You know? Like
how is like was today? Like did I did I
(24:37):
do something that was worthwhile today? Like? What is it?
Speaker 4 (24:40):
A sense of like value, there's like a sense of
self value that if you weren't productive that day, like
you don't feel as valuable.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah. I think so too. I had like an obsession
with productivity as well.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Those are tied for sure.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Yeah. So uh, anyways, therapist, let me tell you what
else is wrong with me?
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:59):
You know, what else? Do you need to unload your checking?
Me down on my lap? My lap's available anyway. Sorry,
we should probably get back to talking about you. I
don't know, I feel like most people are here for that. Okay.
So you've posed naked on a lot of icebergs.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
I have. I have posed on many an iceberg.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
And you've even taught photography workshops in Iceland and become
known for these like daring iceberg shots.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
You said that the first Iceland trip was pretty rough.
What drives you to commit such extreme shoots and why
did you go back and do it seven more times.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
It is amazing that I went seven more times because
my very first time I went with my partner, who's
an amazing photographer who I name is Corwyn Prescott, who
I was teaching the workshops with. And we went first
as a scouting trip, of course, because we wouldn't go
without knowing the place. And I had poison ivy all
(25:57):
over half of my body, half of my my entire
body was covered in poison ivy.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Did you get it in icy Wall?
Speaker 4 (26:04):
No. I had done a photo shoot in upstate New
York about three or four days prior to us leaving,
and I had it all over my face, this side
of my body, my arm, my leg, it was horrible.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
So I had intense poison ivy.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
And we get there and I don't know if you've
ever been to Iceland, almost all of the flights from
the US land at like seven in the morning, and
so you just have to stay awake long enough so
that you don't get completely fucked with jetlag. And so
I'm tired, I'm covered in poison ivy, and we decided
(26:42):
to When did.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
The poison ivy start to manifest itself?
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Okay, No, immediately.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I know it takes because my husband is poison I
I know poison ivy and poison oak.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
They're different, they are different, they are similar. My skin
will react. It actually might have been poison oak. I
can't actually remember now, quite a few years ago, but
they will react very similarly. And this was on the
East Coast, and my skin is intensely sensitive to it.
And I think it was made worse because I shot
(27:13):
in upstate New York, and I think my clothes had
been sitting on some of the stuff and I didn't realize,
and the oil got into my clothes. And then I
put my clothes on and got dressed, and then I
drove back to Philly, where I was living at the time,
and I hadn't changed or showered or anything, so that
oil was just sitting on my skin. And it started
with an itch right here on my torso, and I
(27:34):
was like, oh, I must have gotten a bug bite or.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Something, and then it just expanded. This was also, mind you,
a day before my birthday.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
So on the day of my actual birthday, I got
to be covered in calamine lotion in Asbury Park, New Jersey,
where we decided to go and visit friends, and I
am just dying of itchiness.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
It is so horrible.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
And then a few days later we go to Iceland
and we land in Iceland, we'd rent this car called.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
At the airport like covered in calami.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
Thankfully, there's clear calamine lotion there is that, so I
did not look like I had a horrible disease going
into a foreign country. Believe me, this was something that
I had worried about and got in just fine, not
a big deal. It was starting to resolve by them.
I at least had all the things that I needed.
But when we landed, we rented this vehicle called a Skota,
(28:27):
which I've never heard of before, and it's kind of
a hatchback. And we're like, oh, we'll sleep in the car,
because we've slept in the car a ton when we've
traveled around the US, and it's never been a problem.
Well sometimes it's been a problem. Most of the time
it hasn't been a problem. But this did not lay
perfectly flat when you put the seats back, and so
the seats are the back of it is literally tilted
(28:49):
up like this, and We're attempting to sleep on this
tilted thing, and I'm covered in poison ivy. We are
not sleeping well at all, and we still got some
of the most beautiful photos of my life. Wow, because
Iceland is that beautiful. It was completely worth it. We
did have to do a decent amount of photoshops on
(29:11):
one side of my body, Thankfully, I just did a
lot of posing on this side and tried to minimize
showing this side.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
But it was absolutely worth it.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
And the fact that I could have all of those
things kind of not go right and still want to
go back speaks to the magic of the place, which
if you haven't seen it, you should really go if
you're able to, because there's nowhere else like Iceland.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
I this is sponsored by Iceland Area.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I know, right I you know it'll be on my
bucket list when I finally get to travel again.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, do you take vacations? Have you thought about that?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
I mean we The problem is with a kid, it's
hard to go far like I can't. She's not going
to sit on a plane for four hours for four hours,
four hours. The longest I've taken her is like two
hours to Cabo. Okay, Yeah, but the poison I quick
a side about the poison ivy thing. So this is
(30:06):
a straight So you know, like some people are actually
immune to a poison IVY. Yes, I'm one of those people. Well,
you're so lucky.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
I know.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
It was crazy. You're so lucky. So my husband got
it and he had never had it before, and same thing.
He thought it was a bug bite and he thought
it was fleas. He thought we had fleas. And I
remember like coming home, you know, like that dimacious earth,
it's like that white powder. I remember coming home and
he had covered the entire house and dionacious earth, like
(30:35):
it was all over the couches, it was all over
the rugs, it was everywhere. And I was like, it
looks like someone had like a crazy cocaine party. Was
what the fuck is going on here? He's like, we
have fleas. I'm like, we don't have fleas. I'm like, look,
I don't have anything. And then when it started to
get worse, and then we put two and two together
that he poison oak, and yeah, it was pretty pretty brutal.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
It's really gnarly.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Yeah. I do not recommend of how to multiple times
in my life and I really don't recommend it.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Yeah, oh god, So these workshops, are you still doing anything?
Like that.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
We aren't currently doing workshops like that.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
The fact is that with prices having gone up, it's
really hard to do those kinds of destination workshops right now.
We have been teaching them in the Pacific Northwest because
that's where we live. And also there's so many amazing places,
especially on the Olympic Peninsula, which Olympic National Park. If
you haven't been there, it is the only rainforest in
(31:36):
the lower forty eight and it is so beautiful, giant ferns,
moss everywhere, things just dripping from the trees, and of
course all of the Twilight related I was just gonna.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Say, I was like, should I admit that I always
think of Twilight?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I think I think a lot of people think of Twilight.
There's literally Bella's truck. You can go and see Bella's truck.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Really one of our.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Workshop Aty's last time we did one was really into
Twilight and she was like, Oh, can we go see
the truck?
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Can we go to this place? It was actually very fun.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
There's you know, they have those fire warning signs in
some of the national parks where it goes from like red, green, yellow, red,
and it's the warning. So there's one that's like vampire
risk level and then.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
They adjust it.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
That's cute.
Speaker 4 (32:21):
It's very fun, I think at this point, and I
support people going there and supporting the local economy there.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
What's it like having a partner as a photographer. I mean,
you guys do a lot of shoots, like destination shoots.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
Right, Honestly, it's the best.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
I'm so lucky that I get to constantly create with
someone as talented and hard working as he is. And
I know that that is something that not everyone has,
and I do not take it for granted ever. I
am incredibly, incredibly lucky that we get to create.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Do you have a hard time ever going on vacation
and just like not shooting? Yes, yeah I would. I
would too.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
All vacations have to have some kind of business related
thing that happens. You could write, then you could write
it off. That's exactly why I do it. And I'm
just a slut and I like doing stuff.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
How is your relationship handle you like doing adult work.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
I've been doing this work for a really long time.
I've also been with my partner for a very long time.
He and I have done erotic and explicit work for
almost our entire relationship, and so he has been kind
of comfortable with it the whole time. He's also mostly
shot nudes, and so he's very comfortable with the nude body.
(33:41):
And I think a lot of people's partners have problems
with this work because they don't understand it and they
aren't aware of it. I know a lot of my
stripper friends also run into this where their partners haven't
really been to strip clubs or things like that, and
they just don't know what the actual reality is. And
(34:03):
because my partner is so involved in nude photography, he's
also performed as well.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
He is kind of involved in almost.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
Every aspect of it that you can be, and he
knows that just because you're doing this work related thing
with someone, it does not mean that there's anything else
beyond work with that person. There can be if you
want there to be. I always recommend that if you're
interested in someone, make sure the camera in the videography
(34:33):
is off before you pursue something.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Don't get messed up with that.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
If you want to go on a date with someone,
ask them do it separately from any industry related stuff.
But he is just one of the kindest and best
people that I know, and if conflict does come up,
we just talk about it and we resolve it as
best we can because we're teammates. We are a team.
(34:58):
I could not have the life that I have without him.
I don't have a one person life. I have a
two person life, and he's an essential part of it.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
So from a viewer's standpoint, many men watching porn might
compare themselves to what they see. What's your message to
male fans around body image, performance, anxiety or the pressure
to measure up. I think we both know that we're
talking about like the penis NB penis size fear that
most men have.
Speaker 4 (35:25):
Yeah, first of all, I always like to say this
porn is a fantasy, and also camera angles are real.
So yes, a lot of people in porn have really
big dicks. But also there's something to be said for
when you are using a wide angle lens, especially if
you're performing with like a female person who's really tiny,
(35:49):
the dick is going to look even bigger. A wide
angle lens and a tiny little body are going to make.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
A huge difference.
Speaker 4 (35:56):
So you have to take everything that you see in
porn with a grain of salt. You have to think
critically about the media that you're ingesting and that includes porn,
and I would say to all those people out there,
stress and anxiety is normal. Sex can be really stressful,
whether it's on camera or not. And I think the
best thing that you can do for yourself is to
(36:19):
pay attention to your partner, to the person that you're
doing things with. That is how you're going to be
a great lover and give someone a great experience. Pay
attention to how they're reacting to stuff that they're doing,
and take your skill level seriously. Level up those skills.
I want to see you leveling up your condolinga's skills.
(36:42):
I want to see you leveling up your four placed skills.
Have more going on than just worrying about your dick,
because there's so many other things besides just P and
V that you can utilize and that you can not
only have a great time for yourself, but also have
a great time with the other person.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Yeah. I think so many men forget about the foreplay
because the problem is is that a lot of men
get their sex education, unfortunately from porn, and porn, as
you said, is a fantasy and also like it has
a time limit and an attention span of the viewer
that it has to pay attention to, right, So it's
(37:22):
not going to do a long drawn out foreplay because
most people are going to fast forward through that, right.
So generally it's like the girls wet and the sex
happens right away. Like newsflash is not what we probably use.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Lube so is being used and lube and toys are
your friend.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Yes, so so yeah, guys think that they just like
need to have that big dick and that's what's going
to get them there. But like women, like we need
that foreplay to like get us to open up and
to start. And I think you're right. They miss that
like crucial essential beginning moment where like women, you know,
we the attention and and the the feeling of being
(38:04):
wanted and needed, and like that's such a crucial element
that I feel like, is it just kind of swept aside.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
So much of.
Speaker 4 (38:12):
Desire is in the mind, and you need to be
engaging her mind before you're engaging with her body. And
there are so many people that I've been with where
I wouldn't have necessarily been like, oh that person's so hot,
but there's something else about them with the way they
(38:33):
interact with me or touch me, or the pheromones of
it all that I'm like, Okay, I am here, I
am in it, which is also why I think it
can be hard using dating apps or hookup apps because
you lose that in person sense, and that in person
sense is so important.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Yeah, absolutely for me, Like confidence is a big thing. Yes,
what's like the one trait in guys that you really
look for? Or maybe like passion to passion.
Speaker 4 (39:02):
The thing I look for in all of my partners
is passion. I want someone to nerd out about something.
I want them to have desire and excitement. That excitement
translates from person to person, and if I meet someone
who's really into something and really excited, that makes me
feel more excited about the topic and about them. So
(39:25):
it's not just about physical skills. It's about being a
more interesting person. You are going to make yourself more
attractive if you are interesting and you have more things
to talk about and share.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
So it's like that that old work on yourself, and
then you know more people will come build it, and
as will come.
Speaker 3 (39:46):
Build it, and they shall come and you shall come.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Ah, oh good one. I want to go back to
your your fine art photography because these cars were out
of order. O, so we jumped around a little bit. Okay,
So you said that you've experimented with your body and
sexuality your entire adult life, and that horn is a
natural extension of that exploration. Can you explain what that means.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
So, I've always been a very experimental person. I've always
been drawn to new experiences, to novelty, to new sensations.
Even when I was a teenager, I was always seeking
darker or different things. It's always been something that I've
been interested in. And I've been comfortable in my body
(40:32):
and my sexuality for most of my life. Not that
I haven't had insecurities, of course, but I've always been
interested in sex and interested in bodies. And so I
started nude modeling. I was doing implied nudes when I
was seventeen, and then when I was eighteen, I started
doing nudes and just felt really comfortable with it, and
I loved the experience of being an artist muse, being
(40:55):
part of the larger history of nude art, and it
just was already an interest of mine. And then it
was also a way that I could make money because
when I graduated, there were not a lot of jobs
lined up, and I was really burned out on my major,
and so being able to travel the world, travel the
(41:17):
country and get to meet people that I wouldn't otherwise
get to meet was so exciting for me. And I
got to create beautiful images with people. So I had
always had an interest in being naked, being experimental, and
through modeling and eventually through videography and going into mainstream,
(41:39):
they've all kind of just organically flowed together in a
really beautiful way.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
When you're on a shoot, especially neud or erotic, do
you ever feel vulnerable and how do you manage that
vulnerability mentally, emotionally, physically so that you can stay present
and competent.
Speaker 4 (41:56):
I haven't found it a problem to stand my ground
when things come up, and I've always been a kind
of forceful personality, and so I never felt really vulnerable,
partially because I always made sure someone knows where I am.
I really try to vet people before I shoot with them,
(42:16):
asking for references for photo shoots or for scenes, that
kind of thing. So I have come up with a
lot of systems to make sure that I'm safe. But
I also think a huge component of it is being
involved in the community and listening to what the community
is saying about different people, whether that was being on
Model Mayhem forums or talking with other models or other photographers.
(42:40):
Getting the experience from everyone will make you It's not
an infallible system, but it can make you feel more comfortable,
and you'll also just know what the standards are. Talking
to models who are older than you or performers who
have more experience like I did with Casey, will empower
you to be able to stand your ground or to
(43:02):
push back on things. And so I have been lucky
to have a lot of support system and a forceful
personality that has made me not feel as vulnerable in
situations that might make other people feel vulnerable. Also, I
don't feel vulnerable when I'm naked. That's not the times
(43:22):
when I feel most vulnerable. You can be vulnerable fully dressed,
and I just don't navigate the world with that.
Speaker 3 (43:33):
Fear necessarily when I'm naked.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
I guess it's different for everybody, right Like for you,
it's a self expression and obviously it's something that you
love doing. I mean, the people that feel the most
free when they're naked are definitely the people who are
probably meant to be here, I.
Speaker 4 (43:50):
Truly feel that I am doing what I'm meant to
be doing. It feels very That's why I keep going
back to that word organic. I feel like this has
been a very natural and organic progression of both who
I am as a person and my interests and where
the monetary compensation is.
Speaker 2 (44:07):
I want to ask you some personal questions about you yourself.
What do you think is your best characteristic and your
worst characteristic.
Speaker 4 (44:16):
I think my best characteristic is my decisiveness. I am
definitely able to make choices quickly, and I think my
weakest trait is problem solving, which when I get stressed,
my ability to solve a problem will short circuit. And
I have learned to hack that part of my life
(44:39):
by having people around me who are better at problem solving,
who I trust, who I can go to, who will
help me.
Speaker 2 (44:45):
That's interesting because they're almost kind of the same thing,
sort of.
Speaker 4 (44:49):
They are so related, and usually when people are decisive
that they are good at solving problems. But I am
definitely someone who goes by into wish a lot of times,
and I have a pretty strong sense of things. I
also navigate the world as if I can do everything
or anything, which has come back to bite me many
(45:12):
a time, but it's also allowed me to do things
that I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. So I
think that decisiveness has been a boon to me in
a lot of ways.
Speaker 2 (45:25):
Are you one of those people that believe it, like
if you learn from something that there's no real thing
is mistakes, it's just experiences.
Speaker 4 (45:33):
No, there are such things as mistakes. They exist. I
have made them, certainly. Am I more knowledgeable for having
made a mistake?
Speaker 2 (45:46):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (45:47):
Do I relish and accept making mistakes? Absolutely not. I
would prefer not.
Speaker 4 (45:52):
To make them at all, But I am human, and
I'm slowly learning to accept that I will make them.
Speaker 2 (45:58):
What is a trait that you deplore most in others?
And what is a trait that you cherish most in others?
Speaker 4 (46:04):
There are two traits that I really deplore in other people.
One is more judgmental than the other. I really don't
like people who have big egos. I really don't think
that serves anyone. I don't care how established you are.
There's really no need to have a big ego, especially
if you're trying to gatekeep. There's really no need for that.
I'm a big fan of the rising tide lifts all ships.
(46:27):
Way of navigating my life, and the more judgmental one
is that I don't like when people are lazy. I
really need to be surrounded by people who are being
active in their lives, and I don't want people to
be passively going through their lives.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
But that's also not my call.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
And what I see is laziness might just be someone
resting or recharging, which is why I'm saying it's kind
of judgmental, because that's a very objective thing to apply
to people.
Speaker 3 (47:02):
Yeah, but the trait that I would say is.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
The most important to me is kindness, hands down, in
every interaction. I think that there is a need for kindness,
and we could be getting better as people in society
if we just were a little kinder and thought a
little bit more about other people.
Speaker 2 (47:22):
Do you think society is becoming kinder or less so?
Speaker 4 (47:25):
I do not think that our current society is set
up to celebrate kindness. I think our current society is
set up to celebrate individualistic, capitalistic drive, and kindness does
(47:46):
not play well with being cutthroat. And I think that
we've been told for a long time that succeeding by
any means possible is the goal without thinking about how
that affects us and everyone else in a larger sense.
So I would love to see us become a more
(48:07):
kind people in general. I don't see it happening anytime soon,
but I would really like to believe it.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
Yeah, I'm with you on that one, all right. So
I want to ask you about your project fifty Models,
fifty States and that crazy trampoline story.
Speaker 4 (48:25):
Oh my gosh, Okay, So let me set the scene.
I was working on fifty Models, fifty States, which was
a project that I did with my partner, and we
were going to photograph a model in every single state,
including Alaska and Hawaii. And we're going around the country,
sleeping in our car, reaching out to people. And we
(48:46):
get to Alabama and one of our friends lives in
Birmingham and she invited us over, and we had been
seeing Birmingham all day. She takes us back to our
house and there is in the backyard this giant, plastic
wrapped monstrosity of a trampoline. And I love trampolines. They
(49:07):
are one of the highlights of my childhood is jumping
on a trampoline.
Speaker 3 (49:11):
There's just such a source of joy in them.
Speaker 2 (49:14):
Now, I have to ask you, are you of the
age that when you jumped on the trampoline, was there
like a netting around the side. There was not.
Speaker 4 (49:21):
Okay, when I was growing up, there was absolutely no
safety precautions on a trampoline.
Speaker 3 (49:26):
It was just a raw dog in the side, people.
Speaker 2 (49:29):
Who were breaking their arms really resolutely.
Speaker 4 (49:32):
And so I was not used to seeing one with
this entire structure all around it. And I'm like, oh
my gosh, that would be so fun to go on
the trampoline. And we're hanging out with my friend and
she's like, oh, do you want to smoke a little bit?
And I haven't At that time, I hadn't smoked in
like ten years. It was something that I did with
my friends like a couple times. I was not a
(49:54):
like drug person growing up. I was like having sex
with my boyfriend and reading nerdy, smuddy books in my house.
Speaker 3 (50:03):
I was a nerd through and through.
Speaker 4 (50:04):
But I was like, you know what, Yes, I want
to smoke a little bit. It's going to be really fun.
We're having a great time. And our dog was with us,
and so he had never seen a trampoline before and
was freaking out. He's running around, He's jumping in the
trampoline and off the trampoline and yelling at us and
just being the little referee that he likes to be,
(50:26):
because he was really not enjoying us being on this trampoline.
But I'm jumping higher and higher. We're all on the trampoline.
There's five of us. We're jumping, and I start to
feel something strange, and I look down and I realize
that I had been laughing and giggling and jumping for
(50:48):
so long that I was literally pissing myself. I literally
was having so much fun that I just peeded and
soaked my underwear. I had to go inside egg for
some pants, beg for some fresh undies so that I
had something to change into because I was having that
much fun on this trampoline.
Speaker 2 (51:10):
So wait, did you not feel it you had to
go to the bathroom? Not at all.
Speaker 4 (51:13):
I could not tell at all. I was high as fuck.
We were jumping around. I was not paying any attention
to that. I was paying attention to my dog and
how good it felt to try to get as big
of a jump as possible, and it just.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
I got to tell you, Molly after I had a kid.
I do not get on a trampoline without going to
the bathroom first, just to be safe.
Speaker 3 (51:37):
This is smart.
Speaker 2 (51:38):
I've done a lot of public floor exercises since then,
but just you know, you never know, that's.
Speaker 3 (51:43):
Fairy wise, very wise. I'll just wear a diaper.
Speaker 2 (51:46):
I guess, hey, you know what, someone out there might
pay a lot of money for that kind of customer.
Speaker 4 (51:52):
Yeah, you know, if you want me to jump on
a tramplin until I pee, I think I could get there.
Speaker 2 (51:57):
So lastly, what's next for Nicole Von Are there any
upcoming projects or goals, whether in modeling, porn, photography, or
even another field, anything you're excited about, anything that you
can tease for us, or just anything you want to
achieve by the end of the year.
Speaker 4 (52:13):
I would really like to work with more porn companies.
I love shooting porn. I love to be involved in
this industry. I'd love to work with Browsers who I've
never worked with. I would love to work with Elegant
angel I'm just ready to be on people's sets. I
want to be out there working and making a set better.
Speaker 3 (52:31):
So that's a huge.
Speaker 4 (52:32):
Thing, and I definitely want to do more cosplay related stuff.
If anyone has cosplay ideas nerdy stuff, I'm here for that.
Speaker 3 (52:40):
I would like to get better at playing.
Speaker 4 (52:42):
D and D specifically and coming up with more costumes
and ideas for that. And then I just this is
kind of a secret thing that I haven't really talked about,
but I just started learning how to do silversmithing, and
so I've been learning how to make rings and bolos
and I will be sharing.
Speaker 3 (52:59):
Some of that journey as I do it.
Speaker 2 (53:01):

Speaker 2 (00:25):
Hello everybody, Welcome back to Holly Randall. Unfiltered art model
turned adult film star Nicole Vont has lived a life
as bold and uncensored as the images she creates. Nicole
says she's explored her body and sexuality her entire adult life,
viewing her adult entertainment career as a natural extension of
that curiosity and experimentation. From posing completely naked on icebergs
(00:48):
to attending space camp twice, her adventures are as eclectic
as her resume. In this episode, we'll delve into how
Nicole turns desire into art, the wild stories behind her
travels and shoots, and what she's learned from a career
that spans fine art nudes to hardcore Welcome.
Speaker 3 (01:04):
Nicole, Hello, Thank you for having me.
Speaker 2 (01:07):
You're so welcome. First of all, I feel like I
would be remiss to not mention the Shrek sweater.
Speaker 4 (01:14):
Yes, yes, I don't know why he's yellow, but this
is my off brand Shrek sweater that I love, and
I was so glad to have a reason to wear
it because it does not get enough attention.
Speaker 2 (01:24):
Are you like a massive fan of Shrek? Where did
that come from?
Speaker 3 (01:26):
I do love Shrek.
Speaker 4 (01:28):
But I actually found this at a Buffalo Exchange in
Santa Monica when I was there for my birthday a
few years ago and just thought it was really cute
and I have had so many people comment on it,
and I really thought that it just needed more screen
time and more attention because Shrek is amazing.
Speaker 2 (01:44):
For some reason, that makes me think of like Halloween. Oh,
there's a Shrek filter that somebody used on me when
I was shooting for OnlyFans, and it was very realistic looking.
I actually just wrote on my phone somewhere.
Speaker 3 (01:56):
Did it make you want to be green?
Speaker 4 (01:57):
No?
Speaker 2 (01:57):
Not at all. I was very very happy. I was not,
but it was a very good filter, But I was.
It was kind of disturbing because I was also naked,
so I was.
Speaker 3 (02:05):
Like, mm okay, where but yeah.
Speaker 2 (02:08):
Speaking of since Halloween's coming up, just like before we
get into all like the sex stuff, are you dressing
up for Halloween?
Speaker 3 (02:14):
I am dressing up for Halloween.
Speaker 4 (02:16):
I have really gotten into cosplay this year and so
I have made over the past few months a ton
of different costumes. So I definitely have LeBlanc from the
Leak of Legends that I'm really excited about. I just
did an Ezma from Emperor's New Groove look, which I'm
really excited about. And I also did Natalie Portman's character
from the movie Closer when she's in the strip club.
(02:37):
And I haven't decided which one of those I'm going
to use for actual Halloween, but it's Halloween all months.
Speaker 3 (02:42):
I'm gonna wear them ahole month.
Speaker 2 (02:45):
I have no idea who any of these people are.
Speaker 4 (02:47):
Oh my gosh, Okay, research team, let's go in the comments,
say who your favorite character is. You've really never seen
The Emperor's New Groove. No, you should watch it. It
is so funny.
Speaker 2 (03:00):
What is it?
Speaker 4 (03:01):
It's an animated movie from the early two thousands.
Speaker 2 (03:05):
Marsha just had to like stick her head out to
give me a dirty look.
Speaker 3 (03:09):
How can you not note it's such a great movie.
Speaker 2 (03:11):
I thought it was. It's a cartoon.
Speaker 3 (03:12):
It is a cartoon.
Speaker 4 (03:13):
It's an animated movie and it's about I don't know
if it's like inc and Aztec or Mayan, but it's
about an emperor who is kind of a problem and
he goes on some crazy hijinks because of his advisor, Izma,
who is voiced by Eartha kit Which she is such
an amazing voice and amazing person, and it is so funny.
(03:36):
The characters are incredible, the lines are incredible. It's an
amazing almost there's some slapstick elements about it, but it
also has a lot of heart. It's learning to be
a good person, which is something we could all use
more of.
Speaker 2 (03:49):
I have a four year old. You should not seen it.
Speaker 4 (03:52):
Watch it with your four year old and get back
to me. That is your homework for next time.
Speaker 2 (03:57):
Okay. So, because do you want to hear because I
have a four years ol, do you want to hear
who I'm going to be for?
Speaker 4 (04:02):
I'm guessing someone from Frozen? No, that was two years ago? Okay,
and actually I didn't did I?
Speaker 2 (04:09):
Yes? No, I did dress up for that. I got
a very intricate, expensive costume for Frozen was two years ago, I.
Speaker 3 (04:15):
Was okay, Okay, Okay, so that's old news.
Speaker 2 (04:18):
Yes, that was two years ago. She's over Frozen.
Speaker 4 (04:20):
Okay, Okay, too old. You're right, four years is two years.
It's too old for it.
Speaker 2 (04:26):
I'm Flor de la Clur from Harry Potter.
Speaker 3 (04:29):
Oh, that's a beautiful costume.
Speaker 2 (04:31):
I know, my little hat. Yeah, I haven't gotten it.
I haven't gotten it yet. I really hope it gets here.
I hope it fits me.
Speaker 3 (04:38):
Oh, that's always the thing.
Speaker 1 (04:40):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (04:40):
I had to order it from I think, like Korea. Okay,
And because of the sizing, I had to order an
xx L because of my boobs.
Speaker 3 (04:48):
Oh no, your boobs are too big.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
It was literally an XL and xx L.
Speaker 4 (04:55):
Wow.
Speaker 2 (04:56):
I know. So I'm obviously gonna have to like take
it into but yeah, so anyways, it's hard.
Speaker 3 (05:02):
To be so hot, you know. Oh god, I know,
it's really struggle for you.
Speaker 2 (05:07):
I'll post it if it looks halfway decent, great. If
it doesn't, then I won't. What do you normally do
in Halloween? Do you like go to parties? Do you
hand out candy? Do you go trick or treating?
Speaker 4 (05:19):
I live in a really remote part of the city
that I live in, and so there are no trick
or treaters coming down my road.
Speaker 3 (05:28):
No one can find me.
Speaker 4 (05:30):
It's it's obviously ideal ninety nine point nine percent of
the time for Halloween. I'm not a huge spooky person.
I like spooky stuff, but I don't do scary movies.
I don't do anything like that, but I do love
a costume. So usually I'll be with my best friend
who lives here, and will go out to like some
immersive haunted theater was really cool that we did last year,
(05:55):
sort of those sorts of kinds of things. I'm a
theater nerd, so I love to go. I love seeing theatre.
I love seeing immersive stuff. And I think we might
walk around and see all the houses that are decorated
for Halloween, because I know there's some neighborhoods in LA
that go.
Speaker 2 (06:09):
All out and I love to see that. Yeah, there
are definitely some that are like, if you don't decorate
your house, it's kind of there's some There was somebody
who bought a house in one of those neighborhoods and
literally like the decorations came with the house. I think, Oh,
like the owners like, I mean, that's kind of nice.
Speaker 3 (06:28):
Then you don't have to pay for them.
Speaker 2 (06:30):
Yeah, maybe it was part of the deal.
Speaker 3 (06:31):
It's part of the hoa Halloween sections.
Speaker 2 (06:35):
Hoay's out here to be crazy.
Speaker 3 (06:36):
Are they?
Speaker 2 (06:37):
Yeah?
Speaker 3 (06:37):
Oh I'm so glad I don't have one.
Speaker 2 (06:38):
Sounds stressful, all right, let's get to the thing that
people are probably here for, the nitty gritty, the nitty gritty,
So let's talk about how you got started in the
adult industry.
Speaker 4 (06:49):
Getting into the adult industry was kind of just a
natural progression of all the things that I have been
doing for the past fifteen years. I started out as
like a nude model, and I was always interested in
erotic or explicit content, and I've been doing that kind
of work on my own freelance or for artistic projects
for a really long time. And then last year I
(07:13):
just passed my one year conniversary. But last year I
was interested in getting into it. I felt like I
was in the right place physically, emotionally, mentally to deal
with the industry, and I reached out to my friend
Casey Calvert, who is so amazing. She's so knowledgeable about everything,
and I just asked her a bunch of questions because
(07:33):
I didn't actually know what the lifestyle was, like, I
know how to have sex, I know how to have
sex on camera, but I didn't know what else was required,
and I wanted to make sure that they were things
that I could do. So I wanted to ask about
what times are things usually happening. Do I need to
be up by certain hours, like do I need to
be in LA or do I fly down for things?
(07:55):
And so she answered a bunch of my questions and
at the end, she very kindly was like, I will
put you into a touch with my agent, with Mark Spiegler.
And I've known about Mark tangentially for a long time.
I read Asa Kira's memoirs, which were awesome, and she
mentions him in there, and so I knew about him,
and I knew about his status in the industry, and
(08:17):
so I got in touch with him. He asked me
a bunch of questions and then he was like, next
time you're in LA, if you.
Speaker 3 (08:23):
Want to have a meeting, we can do that.
Speaker 4 (08:25):
And I literally looked to see how many miles I
had on my account. This was on a Friday. I
flew down on a Monday, met with him on Tuesday,
and it went really well. We talked about a bunch
of different stuff. I met George and he wound up
taking me on a go see to Vixen and that
went really well. And so from there it kind of
just started snowballing and I was coming down the next
(08:48):
month to start doing scenes.
Speaker 2 (08:50):
Wow. So, first of all, having someone like Casey Calvert
as an ally is amazing. She's literally one of my
favorite people in the industry. I love her so much
and a wealth of information and so intelligent and so experienced.
So that's what a great like you know, introduction. You
said that you were in the right place like mentally,
(09:12):
So what was that? What did that mean to you?
Because I feel like a lot of people get into
the industry, not a lot of people, I don't want
to say a lot of people, but I do know
people who get into the industry and they're not ready
and then they regret it later or they wish they
had waited. So what did that mean to you being
like ready for it?
Speaker 4 (09:32):
Well, first of all, I was already on the West Coast,
where for most of my life I lived on the
East Coast. I'm from the East Coast and getting into
porn wasn't really an option because so much stuff is
in LA and so that was just never really a
tangible thing to me. And I think also just I
started doing porn a lot later than a lot of people.
(09:54):
I really waited. I felt like till I knew myself
and my boundaries really well, I knew what I was
interested in. I knew that I wanted to do this,
and I wasn't doing it out of a sense of
something that I needed, but something that I wanted to do.
And that's a very privileged place to be in. But
I feel really grateful that I was able to make
(10:17):
that choice.
Speaker 2 (10:18):
And you thought about obviously, like the consequences and everything
that would come with it as well.
Speaker 4 (10:23):
I had already been naked on the Internet for over
a decade, so.
Speaker 3 (10:29):
Really doing porn.
Speaker 4 (10:32):
There is a difference between nude modeling and porn. But
to the front ladies at church, the little church ladies
in the front row, there's not really a difference to
them between showing your titties on the Internet and sucking
dick on the internet. So they were going to be
anti what I was doing regardless. So I had already
(10:52):
accepted that and thought about that, so I wasn't coming
in without that knowledge.
Speaker 2 (10:58):
So tell me about your first What was the first
job that you got booked on.
Speaker 4 (11:02):
So the first scene that I did, I it was
for Team Skeet, and the very first one was actually
a Halloween based scene which was very fun and lots
of props and silliness, which is something that I love.
I love incorporating humor into porn especially. I just think
(11:23):
that it's nice to have that levity. And I shot
that scene and then I actually had three other scenes
booked with Team Skei that week, and so I wound
up doing four total scenes in that week long span,
and they were all really great, Like the talent I
was using was pretty nice, and the videographer photographer was
(11:46):
really nice. Makeup was really sweet. So it was honestly
very easy for me. There are a couple things looking
back that I'm like, that probably was something that I
should have thought a little bit more about. But what's
hard about this industry is even though I was very prepared,
there are things that you just can't know until you're
in it. And now that I know those things, I
(12:10):
look back on it and I'm like, I would have
done a couple things differently, But I don't regret it.
I had a really good time and I'm glad to
keep going with it.
Speaker 2 (12:20):
Can you say what those things are that you would
have done different I.
Speaker 4 (12:22):
Don't really want to dig into that kind of stuff.
I think it's just knowing what standards are in porn,
and I was not as aware of what behaviors are
acceptable and not acceptable, And now that I was more knowledgeable,
I was like, oh, there were some things that happened
(12:43):
that aren't as normal as I thought they were. And
that's just something that you kind of have to learn.
And it's something that if I knew someone who is
going into porn, I would make sure I told them
because I wasn't told it.
Speaker 2 (12:56):
So along those lines, if there's you know, someone watching
a girl that's looking to get into porn, what advice
would you give them? Is there anything in particular that
you think that they should really think about before they
get into porn, things that they should look into.
Speaker 4 (13:12):
If you're going to get into porn, I think it
is really important that you know your boundaries ahead of time,
know what you're willing to do, what you're not willing
to do. It's really easy to get swept up in things,
wrapped up in the entire experience, and it's just good
to have a really strong sense of self and sense
of boundaries going into this job. And I would say
(13:34):
that for any gender, you just have to know enough
of yourself and be self possessed enough that you can
stand up for yourself, advocate for yourself. Don't be afraid
to advocate for yourself. I would say that's a huge
part of it. If there's something that you don't like
or don't want to do, push back. You can do
it in a way that's not going to prevent you
(13:55):
from getting work, and it will help preserve your mind
and your spirit.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I'm actually curious because you know, I stopped directing like
two and a half years ago, and when I you know,
at the end of my directing, I mean, I was
only shooting for like Alu brands, so Twisty's and Browsers,
and they always have talent assistance on set, and they
always have boundary checklists. Do all of the brands do
(14:21):
the same thing? Do they follow the same guideline or
is is it just mixed?
Speaker 4 (14:25):
There's usually I'm trying to think, I think at this
point and port and again, I've only been in the
mainstream for about a year, so I'm not the most
knowledgeable person. But I think for the most part, most
companies at this point have at the very least a
check in that you're doing beforehand. Consent is talked about
things you want to do, don't want to do, and
(14:50):
some companies will send you an email afterwards asking about it,
because the other hard part is that, especially if you
just came or had a really intense e, you're not
necessarily in your full mind, and maybe afterwards you realize that, like,
oh there was something that I didn't like, or you've
just thought about it more and you're like, oh, this
(15:10):
did make me a little uncomfortable, and I didn't realize
right afterwards, And so some companies will email you afterwards,
and that's nice to be able to give feedback where
it's not in front of the person that you just
performed with or performed for.
Speaker 2 (15:24):
Yeah, that's always like and I think a lot of times,
especially if people don't have like a ton of sexual experience,
come into the industry, they may not know what they
like and they don't like until they do it.
Speaker 3 (15:34):
Absolutely.
Speaker 2 (15:35):
Sometimes they don't do it for the first time until
they're in a scene, and so it's like they learn
about themselves during that process.
Speaker 4 (15:42):
Yeah, and I definitely think you can learn about yourself
in porn, like through porn or through any kind of
art really art or performance. But it does help to
have a decent amount of sexual experience. Before you go
into it, so you aren't making those realizations when the
stakes are higher.
Speaker 2 (16:00):
What are some of your favorite scenes that you've done.
Speaker 4 (16:04):
I got to do a Slade scene with Valentina Nappi,
who is just one of the coolest people, so down
to earth, so awesome, really fun to be around.
Speaker 3 (16:14):
And we got so dan thinks.
Speaker 4 (16:17):
I love her so much. I wish I could hang
out with her more. I want her to be my friend.
We got to do a scene together where we're cat
burglars invading this rich guy's house and then we find
something special that we get to use on each other
in his safe, and there's this really fun part where
I'm like cracking the safe with the technology on my
(16:38):
iPhone as if and that was so much fun.
Speaker 3 (16:42):
I had such a great time with that.
Speaker 4 (16:44):
I did that one for Slade, and then I also
did another scene for also for Vixen. I did one
for Deeper, and I love working with Deeper. I am
a fetishist down to my core. I love kinky stuff
and I just love the Deeper team. That entire team
is so awesome and fun to be around. And I
(17:05):
got to do a really fun scene with Dante Cole
where he is a writer, and I am this kind
of evil.
Speaker 3 (17:16):
Hotelier.
Speaker 4 (17:17):
I own this hotel that he's checked into in order
to write his book, and then I give him some
very devious inspiration while he's writing.
Speaker 3 (17:27):
So this is very fun.
Speaker 2 (17:28):
So you said you're a theater NERD. Yes, so you
have a theater background. So do you prefer shooting scenes
that have acting incorporated?
Speaker 4 (17:37):
I love doing scenes. We're acting is part of it,
but it also doesn't have to be. I really just
enjoy the entire process. I love having sex. That's why
I'm in this industry. First and foremost. I love having sex.
I love experiencing other people's bodies. I love playing around
with desire and all of those kinds of things. So
(17:58):
I love getting the chance to act, but I also
don't need it. I think there's a time and place
for a really fun gonzo scene where we shake hands
and we get to it. I am an equal opportunity person.
Speaker 2 (18:11):
That's the great thing about porn. There's something for everybody.

(19:18):
so tell me a little bit about that, Like what
piqued your interest in photography and when did you start
doing that.
Speaker 4 (19:24):
I started doing photography gosh, when I.
Speaker 3 (19:28):
Was in middle school.
Speaker 4 (19:30):
I would set up little tableaus and have my sister
pose for them, and that was really fun. I started
doing self portraits when I was in high school, and
I always had an interest in it. I think because
I don't have the best memory and what I love
about photography is it captures a moment, It preserves a moment,
and you can refer back to it. It's something that
(19:52):
I find incredibly valuable in my life in general, and
I just enjoy the art of making a beautiful photograph.
Speaker 3 (20:00):
I've always been drawn to that.
Speaker 2 (20:02):
It's so weird that you said that, because that's always
what I say. It's like you freeze a moment in
time that will never ever occur again. And I, yeah,
I also have like an obsession with time, like the
passing of time. I have like because I have a
great fear of death, and which we don't have to
get into all that.
Speaker 3 (20:19):
So we can get into it.
Speaker 4 (20:20):
I mean, I find people who are afraid of death
so fascinating because I, of course I don't want to
die anytime soon, and I really enjoy being alive, but
I also am glad that I'm not going to live forever.
I think immortality is for the week, honestly, because I
(20:40):
think that you it is only through death that we
can truly appreciate of what a lot of what life
gives to us. And so I'm afraid of the pain
of dying for sure, and seeing someone else die would
be truly horrible. Someone I know and love would just
be truly horrible. And I know that grief will come eventually.
(21:01):
But at the end of the day, I think that
there is a relief and a stillness that comes from
death that I don't think that there's anything to be
afraid of in that way. But I'm curious, why are
you scared of dying?
Speaker 2 (21:14):
I just think, well, I agree with you. I don't
want to be immortal either. The idea of like living
forever seems exhausting, right, thank you, But I also don't
want to die. Just the idea of non existence is
really I think it's the fear. I think it ultimately
comes down to the fear of the unknown, right, Like
how can I just not exist? How can like there
(21:35):
just be nothing? You know what I mean? Like that?
Like that?
Speaker 3 (21:40):
How do you feel about space?
Speaker 4 (21:41):
Then?
Speaker 2 (21:42):
I don't like it.
Speaker 4 (21:45):
This is so interesting to me because I think a
lot of people who don't like that vastness, that unknowingness
of death also do not like space because it has
a lot of space.
Speaker 3 (21:58):
I would go to space in a heartbeat. I would
love to go to space.
Speaker 2 (22:02):
Fuck that.
Speaker 4 (22:03):
Yeah.
Speaker 2 (22:04):
See, I think it's so weird because I actually was
going through my old podcast and I was like kind
of re editing some reels and I came across a
podcast I did with me and Malkova and we had
a long talk about this about death, and this was
actually I was talking about my dad and how his
health was feeling. And this is before he died, and
he died like a couple of years ago, and so
(22:24):
it was kind of weird to watch it now, like
on the other side of that experience. And I had
just talked to him about dying when I did that
podcast with her, and I had asked him if he
was afraid to die, because I knew like it was coming,
and he told me that he wasn't afraid of dying
and that he felt that, you know, his life was
(22:45):
like the small blip on you know, the vast you know,
on the vast like line of eternity, and like that
brought him comfort that like he was just a speck
of dust in the universe, which I was like, how
was that comforting to you? Yeah, you know what I mean.
Speaker 4 (23:03):
I also find it very comforting the idea of just
not existing anymore.
Speaker 2 (23:09):
Yeah, I think I think you and Hammer were like
aligned in that a lot of in a lot of ways.
Speaker 4 (23:14):
But again, this is all just a thought experiment for me, right, Like,
when it comes time, who knows how I'll feel.
Speaker 2 (23:20):
Right, I mean, I remember when my grandmother was at
the end of her life, like she couldn't wait to die,
you know, and she would say every morning she would
wake up and she'd be like, I can't believe I'm soul. Yes, Grandma,
she would just be so bummed. She's like and live again.
(23:40):
I know. She was like, come on, she's like all
of our mental faculties. Like she you know, she just
like her body was failing her and she just hated that.
And she also like, you know, her husband had died
and she just was ready to go. And she actually
had a wonderful death. She like woke up in the morning,
she went down to like the river. She's lives in
(24:00):
South Africa, like, watched the kids play. I have a
huge family over there, had like her watered down half
whiskey at noon, went to take a nap and died. Wow.
Great way to go out.
Speaker 3 (24:12):
That's a great way to go. Yeah, absolutely absolutely.
Speaker 2 (24:15):
But yeah anyways, so so yeah, so I've had this
like obsession with time because like every time I go
to bed, I think about, like that's another day that's
like been stolen from stolen from you, like and like
how like what did I achieve today? You know? Like
how is like was today? Like did I did I
(24:37):
do something that was worthwhile today? Like? What is it?
Speaker 4 (24:40):
A sense of like value, there's like a sense of
self value that if you weren't productive that day, like
you don't feel as valuable.
Speaker 2 (24:47):
Yeah. I think so too. I had like an obsession
with productivity as well.
Speaker 3 (24:52):
Those are tied for sure.
Speaker 2 (24:53):
Yeah. So uh, anyways, therapist, let me tell you what
else is wrong with me?
Speaker 3 (24:59):
Yeah?
Speaker 2 (24:59):
You know, what else? Do you need to unload your checking?
Me down on my lap? My lap's available anyway. Sorry,
we should probably get back to talking about you. I
don't know, I feel like most people are here for that. Okay.
So you've posed naked on a lot of icebergs.
Speaker 3 (25:16):
I have. I have posed on many an iceberg.
Speaker 2 (25:19):
And you've even taught photography workshops in Iceland and become
known for these like daring iceberg shots.
Speaker 4 (25:26):
Uh.
Speaker 2 (25:26):
You said that the first Iceland trip was pretty rough.
What drives you to commit such extreme shoots and why
did you go back and do it seven more times.
Speaker 4 (25:35):
It is amazing that I went seven more times because
my very first time I went with my partner, who's
an amazing photographer who I name is Corwyn Prescott, who
I was teaching the workshops with. And we went first
as a scouting trip, of course, because we wouldn't go
without knowing the place. And I had poison ivy all
(25:57):
over half of my body, half of my my entire
body was covered in poison ivy.
Speaker 2 (26:03):
Did you get it in icy Wall?
Speaker 4 (26:04):
No. I had done a photo shoot in upstate New
York about three or four days prior to us leaving,
and I had it all over my face, this side
of my body, my arm, my leg, it was horrible.
Speaker 3 (26:19):
So I had intense poison ivy.
Speaker 4 (26:21):
And we get there and I don't know if you've
ever been to Iceland, almost all of the flights from
the US land at like seven in the morning, and
so you just have to stay awake long enough so
that you don't get completely fucked with jetlag. And so
I'm tired, I'm covered in poison ivy, and we decided
(26:42):
to When did.
Speaker 2 (26:43):
The poison ivy start to manifest itself?
Speaker 4 (26:45):
Oh?
Speaker 3 (26:45):
Okay, No, immediately.
Speaker 2 (26:46):
I know it takes because my husband is poison I
I know poison ivy and poison oak.
Speaker 4 (26:50):
They're different, they are different, they are similar. My skin
will react. It actually might have been poison oak. I
can't actually remember now, quite a few years ago, but
they will react very similarly. And this was on the
East Coast, and my skin is intensely sensitive to it.
And I think it was made worse because I shot
(27:13):
in upstate New York, and I think my clothes had
been sitting on some of the stuff and I didn't realize,
and the oil got into my clothes. And then I
put my clothes on and got dressed, and then I
drove back to Philly, where I was living at the time,
and I hadn't changed or showered or anything, so that
oil was just sitting on my skin. And it started
with an itch right here on my torso, and I
(27:34):
was like, oh, I must have gotten a bug bite or.
Speaker 3 (27:35):
Something, and then it just expanded. This was also, mind you,
a day before my birthday.
Speaker 4 (27:42):
So on the day of my actual birthday, I got
to be covered in calamine lotion in Asbury Park, New Jersey,
where we decided to go and visit friends, and I
am just dying of itchiness.
Speaker 3 (27:53):
It is so horrible.
Speaker 4 (27:55):
And then a few days later we go to Iceland
and we land in Iceland, we'd rent this car called.
Speaker 2 (28:02):
At the airport like covered in calami.
Speaker 4 (28:05):
Thankfully, there's clear calamine lotion there is that, so I
did not look like I had a horrible disease going
into a foreign country. Believe me, this was something that
I had worried about and got in just fine, not
a big deal. It was starting to resolve by them.
I at least had all the things that I needed.
But when we landed, we rented this vehicle called a Skota,
(28:27):
which I've never heard of before, and it's kind of
a hatchback. And we're like, oh, we'll sleep in the car,
because we've slept in the car a ton when we've
traveled around the US, and it's never been a problem.
Well sometimes it's been a problem. Most of the time
it hasn't been a problem. But this did not lay
perfectly flat when you put the seats back, and so
the seats are the back of it is literally tilted
(28:49):
up like this, and We're attempting to sleep on this
tilted thing, and I'm covered in poison ivy. We are
not sleeping well at all, and we still got some
of the most beautiful photos of my life. Wow, because
Iceland is that beautiful. It was completely worth it. We
did have to do a decent amount of photoshops on
(29:11):
one side of my body, Thankfully, I just did a
lot of posing on this side and tried to minimize
showing this side.
Speaker 3 (29:17):
But it was absolutely worth it.
Speaker 4 (29:19):
And the fact that I could have all of those
things kind of not go right and still want to
go back speaks to the magic of the place, which
if you haven't seen it, you should really go if
you're able to, because there's nowhere else like Iceland.
Speaker 2 (29:34):
Yeah.
Speaker 3 (29:34):
I this is sponsored by Iceland Area.
Speaker 2 (29:37):
I know, right I you know it'll be on my
bucket list when I finally get to travel again.
Speaker 3 (29:43):
Yeah, do you take vacations? Have you thought about that?
Speaker 2 (29:46):
I mean we The problem is with a kid, it's
hard to go far like I can't. She's not going
to sit on a plane for four hours for four hours,
four hours. The longest I've taken her is like two
hours to Cabo. Okay, Yeah, but the poison I quick
a side about the poison ivy thing. So this is
(30:06):
a straight So you know, like some people are actually
immune to a poison IVY. Yes, I'm one of those people. Well,
you're so lucky.
Speaker 4 (30:12):
I know.
Speaker 2 (30:12):
It was crazy. You're so lucky. So my husband got
it and he had never had it before, and same thing.
He thought it was a bug bite and he thought
it was fleas. He thought we had fleas. And I
remember like coming home, you know, like that dimacious earth,
it's like that white powder. I remember coming home and
he had covered the entire house and dionacious earth, like
(30:35):
it was all over the couches, it was all over
the rugs, it was everywhere. And I was like, it
looks like someone had like a crazy cocaine party. Was
what the fuck is going on here? He's like, we
have fleas. I'm like, we don't have fleas. I'm like, look,
I don't have anything. And then when it started to
get worse, and then we put two and two together
that he poison oak, and yeah, it was pretty pretty brutal.
Speaker 3 (30:57):
It's really gnarly.
Speaker 4 (30:58):
Yeah. I do not recommend of how to multiple times
in my life and I really don't recommend it.
Speaker 2 (31:03):
Yeah, oh god, So these workshops, are you still doing anything?
Like that.
Speaker 3 (31:10):
We aren't currently doing workshops like that.
Speaker 4 (31:14):
The fact is that with prices having gone up, it's
really hard to do those kinds of destination workshops right now.
We have been teaching them in the Pacific Northwest because
that's where we live. And also there's so many amazing places,
especially on the Olympic Peninsula, which Olympic National Park. If
you haven't been there, it is the only rainforest in
(31:36):
the lower forty eight and it is so beautiful, giant ferns,
moss everywhere, things just dripping from the trees, and of
course all of the Twilight related I was just gonna.
Speaker 2 (31:49):
Say, I was like, should I admit that I always
think of Twilight?
Speaker 4 (31:52):
I think I think a lot of people think of Twilight.
There's literally Bella's truck. You can go and see Bella's truck.
Speaker 3 (31:58):
Really one of our.
Speaker 4 (31:59):
Workshop Aty's last time we did one was really into
Twilight and she was like, Oh, can we go see
the truck?
Speaker 3 (32:04):
Can we go to this place? It was actually very fun.
Speaker 4 (32:08):
There's you know, they have those fire warning signs in
some of the national parks where it goes from like red, green, yellow, red,
and it's the warning. So there's one that's like vampire
risk level and then.
Speaker 3 (32:19):
They adjust it.
Speaker 2 (32:20):
That's cute.
Speaker 4 (32:21):
It's very fun, I think at this point, and I
support people going there and supporting the local economy there.
Speaker 2 (32:28):
What's it like having a partner as a photographer. I mean,
you guys do a lot of shoots, like destination shoots.
Speaker 3 (32:36):
Right, Honestly, it's the best.
Speaker 4 (32:39):
I'm so lucky that I get to constantly create with
someone as talented and hard working as he is. And
I know that that is something that not everyone has,
and I do not take it for granted ever. I
am incredibly, incredibly lucky that we get to create.
Speaker 2 (32:56):
Do you have a hard time ever going on vacation
and just like not shooting? Yes, yeah I would. I
would too.
Speaker 4 (33:03):
All vacations have to have some kind of business related
thing that happens. You could write, then you could write
it off. That's exactly why I do it. And I'm
just a slut and I like doing stuff.
Speaker 2 (33:15):
How is your relationship handle you like doing adult work.
Speaker 4 (33:19):
I've been doing this work for a really long time.
I've also been with my partner for a very long time.
He and I have done erotic and explicit work for
almost our entire relationship, and so he has been kind
of comfortable with it the whole time. He's also mostly
shot nudes, and so he's very comfortable with the nude body.
(33:41):
And I think a lot of people's partners have problems
with this work because they don't understand it and they
aren't aware of it. I know a lot of my
stripper friends also run into this where their partners haven't
really been to strip clubs or things like that, and
they just don't know what the actual reality is. And
(34:03):
because my partner is so involved in nude photography, he's
also performed as well.
Speaker 3 (34:09):
He is kind of involved in almost.
Speaker 4 (34:12):
Every aspect of it that you can be, and he
knows that just because you're doing this work related thing
with someone, it does not mean that there's anything else
beyond work with that person. There can be if you
want there to be. I always recommend that if you're
interested in someone, make sure the camera in the videography
(34:33):
is off before you pursue something.
Speaker 3 (34:36):
Don't get messed up with that.
Speaker 4 (34:37):
If you want to go on a date with someone,
ask them do it separately from any industry related stuff.
But he is just one of the kindest and best
people that I know, and if conflict does come up,
we just talk about it and we resolve it as
best we can because we're teammates. We are a team.
(34:58):
I could not have the life that I have without him.
I don't have a one person life. I have a
two person life, and he's an essential part of it.
Speaker 2 (35:06):
So from a viewer's standpoint, many men watching porn might
compare themselves to what they see. What's your message to
male fans around body image, performance, anxiety or the pressure
to measure up. I think we both know that we're
talking about like the penis NB penis size fear that
most men have.
Speaker 4 (35:25):
Yeah, first of all, I always like to say this
porn is a fantasy, and also camera angles are real.
So yes, a lot of people in porn have really
big dicks. But also there's something to be said for
when you are using a wide angle lens, especially if
you're performing with like a female person who's really tiny,
(35:49):
the dick is going to look even bigger. A wide
angle lens and a tiny little body are going to make.
Speaker 3 (35:55):
A huge difference.
Speaker 4 (35:56):
So you have to take everything that you see in
porn with a grain of salt. You have to think
critically about the media that you're ingesting and that includes porn,
and I would say to all those people out there,
stress and anxiety is normal. Sex can be really stressful,
whether it's on camera or not. And I think the
best thing that you can do for yourself is to
(36:19):
pay attention to your partner, to the person that you're
doing things with. That is how you're going to be
a great lover and give someone a great experience. Pay
attention to how they're reacting to stuff that they're doing,
and take your skill level seriously. Level up those skills.
I want to see you leveling up your condolinga's skills.
(36:42):
I want to see you leveling up your four placed skills.
Have more going on than just worrying about your dick,
because there's so many other things besides just P and
V that you can utilize and that you can not
only have a great time for yourself, but also have
a great time with the other person.
Speaker 2 (37:01):
Yeah. I think so many men forget about the foreplay
because the problem is is that a lot of men
get their sex education, unfortunately from porn, and porn, as
you said, is a fantasy and also like it has
a time limit and an attention span of the viewer
that it has to pay attention to, right, So it's
(37:22):
not going to do a long drawn out foreplay because
most people are going to fast forward through that, right.
So generally it's like the girls wet and the sex
happens right away. Like newsflash is not what we probably use.
Speaker 4 (37:34):
Lube so is being used and lube and toys are
your friend.
Speaker 2 (37:39):
Yes, so so yeah, guys think that they just like
need to have that big dick and that's what's going
to get them there. But like women, like we need
that foreplay to like get us to open up and
to start. And I think you're right. They miss that
like crucial essential beginning moment where like women, you know,
we the attention and and the the feeling of being
(38:04):
wanted and needed, and like that's such a crucial element
that I feel like, is it just kind of swept aside.
Speaker 3 (38:11):
So much of.
Speaker 4 (38:12):
Desire is in the mind, and you need to be
engaging her mind before you're engaging with her body. And
there are so many people that I've been with where
I wouldn't have necessarily been like, oh that person's so hot,
but there's something else about them with the way they
(38:33):
interact with me or touch me, or the pheromones of
it all that I'm like, Okay, I am here, I
am in it, which is also why I think it
can be hard using dating apps or hookup apps because
you lose that in person sense, and that in person
sense is so important.
Speaker 2 (38:51):
Yeah, absolutely for me, Like confidence is a big thing. Yes,
what's like the one trait in guys that you really
look for? Or maybe like passion to passion.
Speaker 4 (39:02):
The thing I look for in all of my partners
is passion. I want someone to nerd out about something.
I want them to have desire and excitement. That excitement
translates from person to person, and if I meet someone
who's really into something and really excited, that makes me
feel more excited about the topic and about them. So
(39:25):
it's not just about physical skills. It's about being a
more interesting person. You are going to make yourself more
attractive if you are interesting and you have more things
to talk about and share.
Speaker 2 (39:38):
So it's like that that old work on yourself, and
then you know more people will come build it, and
as will come.
Speaker 3 (39:46):
Build it, and they shall come and you shall come.
Speaker 2 (39:49):
Ah, oh good one. I want to go back to
your your fine art photography because these cars were out
of order. O, so we jumped around a little bit. Okay,
So you said that you've experimented with your body and
sexuality your entire adult life, and that horn is a
natural extension of that exploration. Can you explain what that means.
Speaker 4 (40:11):
So, I've always been a very experimental person. I've always
been drawn to new experiences, to novelty, to new sensations.
Even when I was a teenager, I was always seeking
darker or different things. It's always been something that I've
been interested in. And I've been comfortable in my body
(40:32):
and my sexuality for most of my life. Not that
I haven't had insecurities, of course, but I've always been
interested in sex and interested in bodies. And so I
started nude modeling. I was doing implied nudes when I
was seventeen, and then when I was eighteen, I started
doing nudes and just felt really comfortable with it, and
I loved the experience of being an artist muse, being
(40:55):
part of the larger history of nude art, and it
just was already an interest of mine. And then it
was also a way that I could make money because
when I graduated, there were not a lot of jobs
lined up, and I was really burned out on my major,
and so being able to travel the world, travel the
(41:17):
country and get to meet people that I wouldn't otherwise
get to meet was so exciting for me. And I
got to create beautiful images with people. So I had
always had an interest in being naked, being experimental, and
through modeling and eventually through videography and going into mainstream,
(41:39):
they've all kind of just organically flowed together in a
really beautiful way.
Speaker 2 (41:44):
When you're on a shoot, especially neud or erotic, do
you ever feel vulnerable and how do you manage that
vulnerability mentally, emotionally, physically so that you can stay present
and competent.
Speaker 4 (41:56):
I haven't found it a problem to stand my ground
when things come up, and I've always been a kind
of forceful personality, and so I never felt really vulnerable,
partially because I always made sure someone knows where I am.
I really try to vet people before I shoot with them,
(42:16):
asking for references for photo shoots or for scenes, that
kind of thing. So I have come up with a
lot of systems to make sure that I'm safe. But
I also think a huge component of it is being
involved in the community and listening to what the community
is saying about different people, whether that was being on
Model Mayhem forums or talking with other models or other photographers.
(42:40):
Getting the experience from everyone will make you It's not
an infallible system, but it can make you feel more comfortable,
and you'll also just know what the standards are. Talking
to models who are older than you or performers who
have more experience like I did with Casey, will empower
you to be able to stand your ground or to
(43:02):
push back on things. And so I have been lucky
to have a lot of support system and a forceful
personality that has made me not feel as vulnerable in
situations that might make other people feel vulnerable. Also, I
don't feel vulnerable when I'm naked. That's not the times
(43:22):
when I feel most vulnerable. You can be vulnerable fully dressed,
and I just don't navigate the world with that.
Speaker 3 (43:33):
Fear necessarily when I'm naked.
Speaker 2 (43:36):
I guess it's different for everybody, right Like for you,
it's a self expression and obviously it's something that you
love doing. I mean, the people that feel the most
free when they're naked are definitely the people who are
probably meant to be here, I.
Speaker 4 (43:50):
Truly feel that I am doing what I'm meant to
be doing. It feels very That's why I keep going
back to that word organic. I feel like this has
been a very natural and organic progression of both who
I am as a person and my interests and where
the monetary compensation is.
Speaker 2 (44:07):
I want to ask you some personal questions about you yourself.
What do you think is your best characteristic and your
worst characteristic.
Speaker 4 (44:16):
I think my best characteristic is my decisiveness. I am
definitely able to make choices quickly, and I think my
weakest trait is problem solving, which when I get stressed,
my ability to solve a problem will short circuit. And
I have learned to hack that part of my life
(44:39):
by having people around me who are better at problem solving,
who I trust, who I can go to, who will
help me.
Speaker 2 (44:45):
That's interesting because they're almost kind of the same thing,
sort of.
Speaker 4 (44:49):
They are so related, and usually when people are decisive
that they are good at solving problems. But I am
definitely someone who goes by into wish a lot of times,
and I have a pretty strong sense of things. I
also navigate the world as if I can do everything
or anything, which has come back to bite me many
(45:12):
a time, but it's also allowed me to do things
that I wouldn't have been able to otherwise. So I
think that decisiveness has been a boon to me in
a lot of ways.
Speaker 2 (45:25):
Are you one of those people that believe it, like
if you learn from something that there's no real thing
is mistakes, it's just experiences.
Speaker 4 (45:33):
No, there are such things as mistakes. They exist. I
have made them, certainly. Am I more knowledgeable for having
made a mistake?
Speaker 2 (45:46):
Yes?
Speaker 3 (45:47):
Do I relish and accept making mistakes? Absolutely not. I
would prefer not.
Speaker 4 (45:52):
To make them at all, But I am human, and
I'm slowly learning to accept that I will make them.
Speaker 2 (45:58):
What is a trait that you deplore most in others?
And what is a trait that you cherish most in others?
Speaker 4 (46:04):
There are two traits that I really deplore in other people.
One is more judgmental than the other. I really don't
like people who have big egos. I really don't think
that serves anyone. I don't care how established you are.
There's really no need to have a big ego, especially
if you're trying to gatekeep. There's really no need for that.
I'm a big fan of the rising tide lifts all ships.
(46:27):
Way of navigating my life, and the more judgmental one
is that I don't like when people are lazy. I
really need to be surrounded by people who are being
active in their lives, and I don't want people to
be passively going through their lives.
Speaker 3 (46:49):
But that's also not my call.
Speaker 4 (46:51):
And what I see is laziness might just be someone
resting or recharging, which is why I'm saying it's kind
of judgmental, because that's a very objective thing to apply
to people.
Speaker 3 (47:02):
Yeah, but the trait that I would say is.
Speaker 4 (47:06):
The most important to me is kindness, hands down, in
every interaction. I think that there is a need for kindness,
and we could be getting better as people in society
if we just were a little kinder and thought a
little bit more about other people.
Speaker 2 (47:22):
Do you think society is becoming kinder or less so?
Speaker 4 (47:25):
I do not think that our current society is set
up to celebrate kindness. I think our current society is
set up to celebrate individualistic, capitalistic drive, and kindness does
(47:46):
not play well with being cutthroat. And I think that
we've been told for a long time that succeeding by
any means possible is the goal without thinking about how
that affects us and everyone else in a larger sense.
So I would love to see us become a more
(48:07):
kind people in general. I don't see it happening anytime soon,
but I would really like to believe it.
Speaker 2 (48:16):
Yeah, I'm with you on that one, all right. So
I want to ask you about your project fifty Models,
fifty States and that crazy trampoline story.
Speaker 4 (48:25):
Oh my gosh, Okay, So let me set the scene.
I was working on fifty Models, fifty States, which was
a project that I did with my partner, and we
were going to photograph a model in every single state,
including Alaska and Hawaii. And we're going around the country,
sleeping in our car, reaching out to people. And we
(48:46):
get to Alabama and one of our friends lives in
Birmingham and she invited us over, and we had been
seeing Birmingham all day. She takes us back to our
house and there is in the backyard this giant, plastic
wrapped monstrosity of a trampoline. And I love trampolines. They
(49:07):
are one of the highlights of my childhood is jumping
on a trampoline.
Speaker 3 (49:11):
There's just such a source of joy in them.
Speaker 2 (49:14):
Now, I have to ask you, are you of the
age that when you jumped on the trampoline, was there
like a netting around the side. There was not.
Speaker 4 (49:21):
Okay, when I was growing up, there was absolutely no
safety precautions on a trampoline.
Speaker 3 (49:26):
It was just a raw dog in the side, people.
Speaker 2 (49:29):
Who were breaking their arms really resolutely.
Speaker 4 (49:32):
And so I was not used to seeing one with
this entire structure all around it. And I'm like, oh
my gosh, that would be so fun to go on
the trampoline. And we're hanging out with my friend and
she's like, oh, do you want to smoke a little bit?
And I haven't At that time, I hadn't smoked in
like ten years. It was something that I did with
my friends like a couple times. I was not a
(49:54):
like drug person growing up. I was like having sex
with my boyfriend and reading nerdy, smuddy books in my house.
Speaker 3 (50:03):
I was a nerd through and through.
Speaker 4 (50:04):
But I was like, you know what, Yes, I want
to smoke a little bit. It's going to be really fun.
We're having a great time. And our dog was with us,
and so he had never seen a trampoline before and
was freaking out. He's running around, He's jumping in the
trampoline and off the trampoline and yelling at us and
just being the little referee that he likes to be,
(50:26):
because he was really not enjoying us being on this trampoline.
But I'm jumping higher and higher. We're all on the trampoline.
There's five of us. We're jumping, and I start to
feel something strange, and I look down and I realize
that I had been laughing and giggling and jumping for
(50:48):
so long that I was literally pissing myself. I literally
was having so much fun that I just peeded and
soaked my underwear. I had to go inside egg for
some pants, beg for some fresh undies so that I
had something to change into because I was having that
much fun on this trampoline.
Speaker 2 (51:10):
So wait, did you not feel it you had to
go to the bathroom? Not at all.
Speaker 4 (51:13):
I could not tell at all. I was high as fuck.
We were jumping around. I was not paying any attention
to that. I was paying attention to my dog and
how good it felt to try to get as big
of a jump as possible, and it just.
Speaker 2 (51:28):
I got to tell you, Molly after I had a kid.
I do not get on a trampoline without going to
the bathroom first, just to be safe.
Speaker 3 (51:37):
This is smart.
Speaker 2 (51:38):
I've done a lot of public floor exercises since then,
but just you know, you never know, that's.
Speaker 3 (51:43):
Fairy wise, very wise. I'll just wear a diaper.
Speaker 2 (51:46):
I guess, hey, you know what, someone out there might
pay a lot of money for that kind of customer.
Speaker 4 (51:52):
Yeah, you know, if you want me to jump on
a tramplin until I pee, I think I could get there.
Speaker 2 (51:57):
So lastly, what's next for Nicole Von Are there any
upcoming projects or goals, whether in modeling, porn, photography, or
even another field, anything you're excited about, anything that you
can tease for us, or just anything you want to
achieve by the end of the year.
Speaker 4 (52:13):
I would really like to work with more porn companies.
I love shooting porn. I love to be involved in
this industry. I'd love to work with Browsers who I've
never worked with. I would love to work with Elegant
angel I'm just ready to be on people's sets. I
want to be out there working and making a set better.
Speaker 3 (52:31):
So that's a huge.
Speaker 4 (52:32):
Thing, and I definitely want to do more cosplay related stuff.
If anyone has cosplay ideas nerdy stuff, I'm here for that.
Speaker 3 (52:40):
I would like to get better at playing.

kind of a secret thing that I haven't really talked about,
but I just started learning how to do silversmithing, and
