Somewhere Over the Rainbow..

Wednesday, December 8th, 2010

I have been searching for months to find something to match my rainbow thigh high socks for a super colorful crazy photoshoot, and after watching the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show a couple nights ago, I think I found it!

Now, where can I get wings like that?  Hmmm.. :)

I don’t think I will be finding them anytime soon but now I am inspired!  I have a couple photoshoots coming up and once again it is up to me to dream up some interesting, original, totally whacked out concepts.. any suggestions?

These upcoming shoots include an all Polaroid set which should be AWESOME.. I get to wear my Gothic/Lolita pink dress+pink wig so I’m stoked!  (we talked about this a little bit during last member’s webcam show!)  I’m getting paid for this one so I probably won’t be bringing home any pics to post here..  (I will try to get at least 1 or 2, or at least get some good ideas and do something similar someday!) But I will be taking my held held cam and taking behind the scenes videos to post in my PODS personal videos section in my member’s area!

Also early next week I’ll be shooting my official Christmas scene for this year with photographer Jay Allan.  My Trashy.com outfit is on it’s way and the scene is being built as we speak!  I can’t wait to see what cums from this one:)  If it turns out half as good as the scene in my head it’s gna be hot hot hot!:)

Then I’m ending the week by flying to Vegas and spending an entire day shooting with one of my fav photographers, Ric Young!  We have been going back and forth on some really twisted ideas, but haven’t solidified one plan yet.. this is the one I am brainstorming and stressing over the most!

Speaking of Ric Young, next week a set we shot last time I was in Vegas will be posted in the member’s area.   I named it “Old Timey Aaliyah” because it has a real vintage feel to it.. I hope everyone likes it!:)

Even More Crraaazzzyy!!

Wednesday, September 1st, 2010

The last photoshoots I want to tell you all about that will complete my “Crrraaazzzy saga” is actually an entire weekend.  And what happened between that Friday-Sunday night is the definition of CRAZY! I saved the best for last:) It was the perfect end to a perfect 2 weeks of shooting. And when I say perfect I mean absolutely INSANE!:)

So Friday I had been booked to shoot with Jay Allan for Finally Legal Magazine!  Can I just tell you all how stoked I was to get promised another magazine, since it has been awhile since I was in those last 3 (Barely Legal, Live Young Girls and Tight) and I have to admit it def is good for my ego to be shot for a magazine called Finally Legal when I haven’t officially been that “age” for about 6 years hehe.. So I spent as much time as I could working out, pulling “cutsey” outfits, getting my nails done and the perfect tan so I could look my best.

But the morning of the shoot I woke up with a bad attitude.  I don’t know why and I can’t even put my finger on it but I just felt like I did not want to shoot that day, that it just wouldn’t be perfect.  But I kept my mouth shut like a good little model and woke my ass up at 6am and got ready and met up with Jay.  He packed my SUV full of equipment and off we went to Malibu!  WELL guess what happened? (if you follow my Twitter or attended my last member’s webcam show you already know hehe) We were about 1/3 of the way there when my SUV started acting funny..oh noes! We pulled over and found out we had a flat tire.  Thank goodness it was a back tire so we didn’t lose control, but still, it was a MAJOR tire blowout!

See what I mean?  The hole in the tire was about the size of a softball!  Good thing was we stayed calm and Jay has AAA so we actly got the car towed on a flatbed truck the rest of the way to our shoot.

Here’s me in the back of the towtruck:

Then the craziest thing happened!  The towtruck driver got his foot caught on the bed between my SUV and the edge and SLIPPED into oncoming traffic!  He reached out and grabbed the handle on the door.  The door of my SUV swung open and he was able to pull himself back up..1 second later a U-Haul truck went by followed by several cars.  If he hadn’t pulled himself back up the truck would of hit him.  If he hadn’t grabbed the door handle he would of fallen onto the road in front of the truck and cars..OMFG!!!  Jay and I sat stunned, there was nothing we could do to help him and it all happened so fast!  I was just happy he was ok even tho he seemed really shaken up when he got into the truck with us.  (I told this story way better during my last member’s webcam show so if you are a member, go check out the archives!!:)  We eventually cheered him up tho with out banter about dildos, photoshoots, panties and smut.  He told us that we were his fav customers by the time he dropped us off!  This is when I started understanding my bad feeling that morning.  THEN..

We hit traffic.  STOPPED traffic.  We were already pressed for time before the tire blew out and I was already promising I wouldn’t take more than 20mins to touch up my hair+make-up before we started shooting so we would have enough sunlight to get everything done that we needed to!  By the time we got there, it was too late to even start.  But somehow all I could feel was relief.  Perhaps it was for the best, I wasn’t 100% into it, and who knows? Maybe something else bad would of happened. Or maybe I just wouldn’t of looked my best.

I guess the tire blow out was all my fault then, because I was secretly asking the Universe to give me what I want, and it responded, like it always does.. oops!:) My bad?

But I didn’t let it bother me, I love Malibu and I hadn’t been to the beach one time all year, so that’s what we did. Beach and sushi, life is good:)

..Alls well that ends well, right?:)

Ok actually I’m going to stop here since this blog post is already getting super long!  I guess I’m going to have to do ONE MORE blog post to finish telling this story..which involves a trip to Vegas and back and take 2 at our “Finally Legal day” which is going to be another long blog post w lots of pics!!  You guys don’t mind do you?:)

Crraazzzyyy Part 2

Monday, August 30th, 2010

So continuing on with my super crazy string of photoshoots, my next shoot was the day after the last one I told you all about.  (see 2 blog posts ago!)  I woke up pretty sore and tired, I usually don’t shoot 2 days in a  row for this very reason..but I promised to get everyone’s personalized porn videos done this week!   Yep, this day was strictly to shoot “custom videos” for a handful of lucky people!:)  I do this about once a month and it is how I fund my photoshoots (hair, makeup, outfits, location and photographers don’t come cheap!)

This time I was going to shoot all of the videos in my apartment, which was interesting since I have never shot any porn in my living space (besides the LIVE PORN shows I do in my webcam studio on the nightly, but that’s different hehe..) It felt really weird trying to turn my bedroom, kitchen and living room into porn sets, but I think I did an ok job!:)

I had lots of fun this day, the custom vid requests were all very creative and different from one another, just how I like it!:)  I got to do some foodfucking and make an absolute mess in my kitchen..

I’m still finding little pieces of strawberry stuck in little crevices in my bathroom and carpet OMG!  I have about 6 more pics from this shoot, before and afters and some silly ones like this one that I will be posting in my “behind the scenes” folder in my personal pics section for all www.AaliyahLove.com members to check out!:)

This is the bathtub scene (duh!)  I am cleaning my new waterproof dildo here and getting ready to get naughty!  I really tried my hardest to make my suction cup dildo work in this tub, and we filmed about 5minutes of me trying and totally failing..it’s pretty funny actually and will probably find it’s way onto a bloopers reel someday!  But this toy plus the faucet made for a great substitute:)

This is one of the sweeter, cuter scenes I did this day!  I can’t give away too much because it IS a “custom” video for the 1 person that ordered it, but I had to post this pic because I dig how my hair is lookin hehe:)  That is my actual bed!  I turned it into a big pink and white cloud for this scene.  It’s usually dark purple and red and white, which I dig but doesn’t look that cute on camera!

I also got to dress up as Sailor Moon and a Slutty Ass Fuck Schoolgirl this day..aahh I love my job!:)

Crazyyyy

Monday, August 23rd, 2010

My life has been so busy crazy lately and am well aware I have been saying “OMG I have soo much to tell you guys! Gna post a blog about it once I get a chance!” for like, 2 weeks now!  And now that I am sitting here and going over it all in my head, I either feel like some of it is old news by now, and the rest is overwhelming me where I don’t know where to start!

I have done soo many photoshoots lately!  I honestly think I have shot more in the last 4 weeks than I usually do in like.. a year?  But it’s all good, I love doing photoshoots, I love every part of it!  And almost everything that was shot will be put up on www.AaliyahLove.com so you all get to see the fruits of my labor:)  I have tried to share with you all a little bit of what’s been going on, a picture here and there of some of my fav sets..but there is so much to tell you I don’t think 1 blog post will cover it all!  But I will talk about the first shoot of many here and hopefully find time later this week to tell you about the other ones:)

All of this craziness started with an all day shoot I did with Jay Allan where we shot from 10am-11:30pm and we got 6 pic/vid sets done!  I got to completely design and style 4 of these scenes and of course I came up with some super creative, silly colorful scenes that took forever to set up, light and shoot!  Actually, one in particular took Jay and his assistant about 2 hours to set up to get just right.  I shot some behind the scenes video during this time of me sitting on the couch doing my best to be patient while watching the clock and watching my opportunity to go out for sushi after slowly diminish.  (I will be posting it to my “pods” personal vids section soon!) It was the last scene of the day so everyone was pretty tired and I’m sure everyone wished I hadn’t dreamed up something so complicated but I think it might be my fav scene from the day.  I haven’t seen any of the pics yet (except during the shoot when Jay showed me on his camera) but I have lots of behind the scenes pics I took w my phone..here’s 2:

If you are thinking “Hmm she kind of looks like a slutty anime girl” that’s kind of the look I was going for:)

I took this one in the mirror.  I have owned that skirt for probably 3 years and never found 1 thing to match it to.. until now!:)

We also did a crazy food fucking scene which took forever to clean up, a black and white “fine art” scene where I was practically blinded (go back 2 blog posts to see a pic from that one) and a glamor type of scene that will be going up next week!  (Right now it’s titled “Gold Wall” but I’ll probably come up with a better name for it by the time it’s released hehe)

Here’s one of the kitchen/food fucking pics..

I’ll give you one guess what happened to that carrot..and everything else in that salad bowl next to me!:)

So we didn’t get out of this house until after midnight but guess what?  I still got my sushi in the end.. Google is my friend!  I found an authentic Japanese sushi place in Little Japan downtown LA and it was some of the most amazing sushi I ever had!  Jay and I sat there going over the day’s shoot and our future projects and unwinding.  I kept on ordering different things to try off of the menu, I even tried some fish I had never heard of before!!  A perfect ending to a perfect day:)  Everything ALWAYS works out in the end!!

This was one of my most productive shoots yet and one of my favs because I look at the pics form these scenes compared to the scenes I attempted to put together myself before I had no clue what I was doing (I STILL have no clue, but I’ve gotten a lot better at acting like I do! hehe) and I feel like I have come a long way.  One thing I can guarantee you guys is you will never see your typical boring “girl on couch with dildo” scenes at www.AaliyahLove.com!  You have all seen me masturbate like that on webcam for YEARS now, and you still can..but my scenes will always be above and beyond that:)  So I hope you all enjoy them as much as I enjoy making them!!:)  So you will be seeing these 6 scenes posted here in the next 6-8 weeks.  Plz leave me scene comments and emails and let me know what you think:)

ps-my next story is the shoot I did the next day that was all custom videos.  It involves some panty stuffing, some cosplay outfits and some more food fucking!  Including some of the MESSIEST pics I have EVER taken!! Stay tuned.. :)

Behind the Scenes With the Naughty Maid Slave Girl!

Friday, June 25th, 2010

I know how much you guys like it when I share my behind the scenes pics and videos with you!  Here are some pics I took with my phone the day Veronica Avluv and I shot our scene. I already posted a blog entry with some teaser pics from that scene so if you want to see those you can check out the blog entries called “Naughty Maid AKA My Fun With Mistress Veornica”

and you can see it here:

http://blog.aaliyahlove.com/aaliyah-love/naughty-maid-aka-my-fun-w-mistress-veronica.html

So the day started at 5am..which is crazy for me!  I’m usually drifting off to sleep around 1 or 2am so it wasn’t easy getting my lazy ass out of bed, but I was running on adrenaline because I was super stoked and actually kind of nervous to meet and shoot with Veronica and Hans Avluv.  This was out first time meeting and she was going to come over to my apartment to do my hair and makeup..

0410001000

This is me at probably about 6am in my computer room.  Veronica and I sat in my webcam studio and chatted about webcaming and porn and sex while she did my hair and makeup..it was fun!:)

0410001104a

This is me in the car ride to the shoot!  We decided to keep my hair in pins until it was actually time to start fucking so it would stay!  It was fun at the 711 and watching Veronica in her full glory bouncing her tits up and down and us getting all sorts of stares hehe:)

041000110321

I have always wanted to do a pin-up girl type of shoot but had no clue how to do the hair so couldn’t:(  If you guys haven’t noticed I kind of have 3 hairstyles.. straight, curly on the ends, or pigtails hehe!  So I was stoked when Veronica offered to do it for me!  She’s just as amazing as a makeup/hair artist as she is at sex (on camera and off hehe) I’m totally enamored by her and proud to call her my friend!:)

0410001241

..and this is the end result!!:)

0410001242

Here’s a full body shot..  I had someone take this with my phone while we were waiting for Hans to get his lights set up just right!

I know I have already gushed about how fun this shoot was and what an amazing lover Veronica is and how awesome Hans was to work with so I won’t be too redundant and say it all again here (ok, maybe just a little hehe) but I really can’t wait to post this set on my site!  It will be a series of 4 or 5 scenes and like nothing I have ever posted before.. I am hoping to get the 1st one from Hans and Veronica sooooon..so stay tuned my fellow freaks and pervs!:)

Sometimes When Everything Goes Wrong..It All Works Out

Wednesday, December 2nd, 2009

So I’ve finally had some time to unwind and catch my breath from my crazy week last week! I’ve unpacked..which caused a huge amount of laundry since I went thru 2 suitcases full of clothes during my Tues/Wed photo shoots! I’ve washed off the spray tan and started to grow my bush back (at least for a week or two!) and gotten back to my normal life! ..until next shoot of course hehe:)

Sunday I got a massage, spent a couple of hours sitting in the steam room and hot tub at the spa.  I also slept a lot..I really needed it!!

Monday and Tuesday I spent a lot of time on my webcam for CamModels.com

and TODAY I am finally ready to start telling you guys all of the juicy details of my week last week!!:)

Last Tuesday I had a shoot with Jay Allan.  We were shooting some solo pics for his Christmas card and a set for my site.

Aaliyah.Love.Jay.Allan_45

I was super excited when Jay and I both agreed on a 12noon shoot time since I am NOT a morning person!  But Monday night right before as I was going to sleep I realized my hair dryer was broken and I needed to wake up earlier than I thought to rush to the Walgreens and get a new one.  So I woke up at 8:45am..isn’t this what I was trying to avoid?  ugh!  Well at least I got a super cute pink dryer for $20 fs that was a score!;)

I spent 2 hours getting ready then as I’m trying to leave around 11:30 my GPS was not cooperating and Jay and I spent 20mins on the phone trying to convince my GPS to pick up his address.  So I was late for the shoot and felt bad about it and stressed about it the entire ride there!  I should have known right then and there that this day wasn’t going to go smoothly LOL!

So I met Jay at the house around 12:30, and I went into the house to recurl my hair and apply some last minute makeup.  This is usually the 1st thing I do at a shoot and usually I have about 15-20mins b4 the photographer starts calling for me.  well 45mins later I was wondering if everyone forgot about me!  Turns out poor Jay Allan and his crew were having prob w equip that they borrowed from someone else.  3 out of 4 lights weren’t working the way they should!  oh noes!

So I chilled out, grabbed a snack, tried on all 10 sexy Christmas related outfits I brought to the shoot,  Twittered and took lots of self pics and pics of Jay and his crew setting up my winter wonderland.  (I have to pull them off of my phone maybe I’ll post them tomorrow some of them are super funny!!) If I told you guys what materials he made the scene out of you would not believe me after looking at the pics but I will never tellllll :)

I think we started shooting at 3:30..LOL!  Jay rigged something and totally worked a miracle and got everything working just as the sun started going down!  Luckily they had portable heaters there and they followed me around like a princess whenever I said I was getting chilly!  Once we started shooting it went smoothly and we got some amazing shots!

Aaliyah.Love.Jay.Allan_185

We ended up shooting some video and another set that was totally unrelated to x-mas.  We shot well into the night until it was dark and freezing cold..prob around 9pm!

Then just as i was leaving and I thought the curse had lifted.. Jay’s computer crashed 6 times while trying to burn my pics onto disc for me.  We were in the middle of a convo about how I should never leave a shoot without my content when it kept on crashing..and I gave up and left without the content LOL!

but you know what? it worked out better..because out of the 600 pics we took Jay narrowed them down to the best 100 and resized them for me.  We met up the next day and he had them all ready to go for me so..in the end..it all worked out!:)  it actually worked out better for me!

Jay was a total sweetheart and fun to work with.  I think we got along really good and I ended up with a disc full of kick ass sexy holiday pics a whole month before Christmas! So in the end..even though EVERYTHING went wrong..it all worked out great!  :) That’s usually how it goes at shoots for some reason..at least MY shoots hehe :)

My “Pre-Photo Shoot Freak Out”

Wednesday, July 1st, 2009

So as many of you know I have a very important photo shoot coming up very soon- July 7th to be exact.  I am super excited about it and expect to get some pics/vids out of it that have me looking like I never have before!  The shoot is with the photographer Dean Capture, whom I have great respect for since he takes some of the best pics I have ever seen and it is for the company Twisty’s!!   Twisty’s have been nice enough to let me use the 3 pic/vid sets we will be shooting for my site too, isn’t that great?!:)  There will be a hair and make up person there and they are going to make me look very GLAM, which I usually don’t get to do at my normal shoots with my photographers, so this should be good!:)

I get anxiety before every shoot and they want I use that anxiety for good is I make sure to be as prepared as I can for the shoot.. I call this my “pre-photo shoot freak out” routine.  The routine is as follows:

I start eating healthy and working out A LOT about 3 weeks before the shoot.  This does not mean I starve myself I fucking LOVE food but I will try to eat no sugar, no dairy, no soda, no preservatives like high fructose corn syrup and fill up on yummy stuff like veggie burgers, lots of fish, and I munch on fresh fruit all day long!  I have also been doing yoga and walking my dog for an hour or more and hitting the gym every single day.. My muscles are killing me  but my doggy is loving spending all of that time in the Cali sunshine!:)

Then a week before I get my hair done, get my nails done and start tanning.  I know, I know, tanning is bad for you but it looks so much better on cam when you have that golden glow :)

I try to take the day before the shoot off and spend the day doing last minute prep for the shoot, buying make up, working out one last time and driving to LA and getting a hotel room so I can get a good night’s sleep before the shoot.. the one July 7th starts at 9am which means I have to wake up around 7.. sooo unnatural for me!!:)

I just got an email from Dean telling me to bring my own wardrobe and to bring LOTS of outfits and jewelry.. the more the better!  GULLPP!  I have tons of sexy outfits but I have worn them all.. some of them more than once.. on my site so I think this means.. I need to go lingerie shopping!  Which I def don’t mind, I just don’t know when I’m going to fit it into my schedule.  It’s kinda too late to order anything online so I hope my fav stores will be carrying my size.. XS!:)  I want to get some super sexy classy outfits with heels and stockings, I am going to go total glam this time!:)  Whenever I find time to go shopping I will def take some fone pics for you guys in the dressing room and upload them to my Twitter and post the naughtier ones here :)

Last time I went to Victoria’s Secret there was this very cute asian girl who I was hoping would “accidentally” catch me taking half naked pics in the changing room she never did :(  Maybe next time I will leave the door cracked a little so I might get caught :)  But that’s another story for another blog!!:)

BTW because of this shoot and July 4th my sched is going to be a little crazy for the next week and a half.. I know I will be taking July 3-4 off, July 6-7, and I might try to stay in LA and meet up with my photographer to film some custom vids and shoot some more scenes for my site and that would be July 8-9, so I will put this all on my calendar (on the front page on my site) and keep you gusy updated, you know I will jump on my webcam whenever I find the time!!:)

Good night guys!  I’m going to try to get to bed early for once..Cya online tmrw!:)
