The 2023 AltStar Awards, presented by Bad Dragon, is set to have its usually cool and glamorous red carpet. We love all our Los Angeles photographers, but we are seeking some Las Vegas photographers to photograph the festivities on both June 17 and June 18. You can check out photos from past shows to get an idea of what the red carpet is like and the general style. This is work-for-hire. We do credit our photographers in AltStar Magazine and on the site. Please use the contact form to get in touch. We are especially interested in working with photographers who have experience photographing events, working with adult talent, anything to do with alternative aesthetics, so please let us know those aspects of your background.

Deathrock Book Project from Blue Blood Photographers

BedaHoydenish — Thu, 31 May 2012 14:24:58 +0000

We are all obsessing about the 2012 AltPorn Awards here, but I wanted to post this BTS video of APN’s 2011 Best Alternative Erotica Photographer winners doing photo shoots. Amelia G and Forrest Black will be familiar to APN readers for their work with Blue Blood and its various sites. For this project, they are working on a book of gothic punk portraiture of people in the California deathrock scene over the past decade or so. Because Amelia G and Forrest Black are doing the project on Kickstarter, I can see that they have reached the successful fully-funded stage where the book is definitely going to be published. I’m planning on backing this Kickstarter project myself because I want a signed copy of the book with my name and thanks in the book. The way Kickstarter works, I can pledge any time before June 7 and then I only get the charge from Amazon at the end of the pledge drive. I am really looking forward to seeing this book. I like that they don’t just shoot naked people and when they do shoot, they don’t just dress people up to look ‘punk’ for the camera.

Hollywood, CA May 2012 – California Deathrock Book Kickstarter
http://www.kickstarter.com/projects/ameliag/california-deathrock-book/

Kickstarter crowdfunding just succeeded for a book of deathrock subculture
photography by Amelia G and Forrest Black. Best known for their work with
Blue Blood, the photography of Amelia G and Forrest Black has also been
published by Rolling Stone, Playboy, Tattoo Savage, Picture, MTV, Orkus,
New Grave, Permission, Alternative Press, Meltdown, Ghastly, Sonic Seducer,
and many others.

For more than a decade, Amelia G and Forrest Black’s personal work has been
documenting various subcultures. Amelia G says the West Coast deathrock
scene has been one of their favorite subcultures to shoot. Publishing a
fifteen year retrospective of deathrock imagery would definitely be a labor
of love, so the subculture documentarians appealed to their friends and
readers to back a Kickstarter project to put the book out.

As of today, the Kickstarter is successful, with the project 110% funded
and 11 days to go in the pledge drive. Amelia G says she is “super happy
and more than a little relieved” that the Kickstarter has succeeded and
additional funding pledges between now and June 7 will go to more pages and
wider bookstore distribution. Connoisseurs of deathrock and art photography
can continue to pledge via Kickstarter up until June 7 at 5pm Pacific.
Backers who pre-order the book will be thanked in print inside it.

successfully captures the alluring mystique of the members of our society’s
underground sub-cultures, and presents these often-misunderstood
individuals in a sexy, provocative, and yet approachable way.” –Linda “FC”

Question About Listing Photo Credits

AltPorn — Tue, 07 Aug 2007 23:52:47 +0000

Some sites are good about listing photo credits for their photo sets and some seem to only list credits if they are very impressed with the photographer. Historically, we at APN have usually not bothered to list photo credits since the information was sporadic at best, but more and more sites are making that information available. I like to know who created my favorite images, but I don’t know how common that interest is. Should we make more of an effort to report who shot the photo sets we report on or is in not really important to you the reader?

We’d really like to get some of your feedback on this.

Deviant Nation: Welcomes Lithium Picnic

Cutter — Wed, 11 Jul 2007 23:11:53 +0000

Congratulations to Philip Warner, AKA Lithium Picnic, for surviving through his six month non-compete agreement with his former semi-exclusive employer SuicideGirls. We’re still trying to suss out the root of the real contractual conflict and salient merits of SG’s lawsuit against him, but it’s always good to see an artist working in the legal free and clear.

Congratulations also go out to Deviant Nation for opening their doors to him, as well as bidding their July new membership revenues in support of his legal fees. That seems like a nice thing to do.

Deviant Nation writes:

Deviant Nation would like to formally welcome photographer Philip Warner from Lithium Picnic Studio.

Effective immediately, Lithium Picnic will be shooting sets and general photography for Deviant Nation.

Lithium Picnic’s work has been featured on MTV, A&E, Playboy.com as well dozens of magazine and cover features in the US and Europe.

For the month of July, the revenue from all new subscriptions will be donated to his legal defense against Suicide Girls.

We wish him the best of luck with his case and look forward to his contributions to Deviant Nation as we continue to grow and improve the site.
