You act like you care about things other than clearly being a part of something that most of us are envious, especially when you're on the inside! Kilakali, Sparky Snakeden, PK Vegas and Buddy Wood are getting all of the inherent spoils because of the evident t-girl environs and you are offered a chance to be a part of the festivities (these guys are having the time of their lives, sending back photos for all of us to drool over!) and you say to your boss send Joe Public!?! You're supposed to have a good time on boondoogles! I know your boss, on this occasion, expects you to have a good time! You are, quite the bird! Personally I think you should be taking pictures of kids on Santa's lap with thinking like that!
Actually I care very much about the industry I'm in, which is why I empower my models and not exploit them. It's why I inform them of their rights as models and how to make money in this industry. Its why I have morals and integrity and try to make the girls understand that this isn't Boogie Nights where 'anything goes', it's a business and they should wise up and treat it as such. It's why I try to help the 'solo site' models as much as I can.

I've been to LA on multiple occasions, never had a good time, perhaps it was the people I was around, though I do like other parts of Cali. I've been on the Company Trip before and it was a great time, and would go again. I think the Tranny Awards are great, especially considering how under-served transexuals are at other award shows, but I don't see the big deal about going to the AVN, Grammy, Oscars, or Emmy award shows either. The real upside 'for me' would be seeing my friends there, and I don't know that any of them aside from 'Seanchai' are going either. I think sending some of the members of this site is an awesome idea, and would hopefully spur more of those sitting here waiting for free pics to actually join up. Again, I DO have more important priorities than going across the country to a party, just because you are envious of them spending their nights in clubs with tgirls doesn't mean I have to be. I see that they are in paradise, living it up, more power to them. Company has parties in NY which is driving distance and I don't go to those either.

Would it be fun, most likely, will it help me in any practical way with regards to business? Not At All, yet another reason why I said it's not necessary for me to attend. I would not be allowed to shoot while out there so please, with your deep and experinced knowledge of our porn industry, please explain what challenges and horizons are there for me to conquer? I pay out of my own pocket to bring models to me, so flying a model that I met in LA to Va for a shoot isn't happening soon, especially with ample photogs in LA and that's considering I would even get the shoot approved.

lol With regards to X-Mas photos, I've already been reduced to doing other forms of photography like you've mentioned to help cover bills and such *sigh* I may not be much of an artist, but I'm sure as hell trying not to starve.
