moving slow through an ambiguous flow
staying open to several possible meanings
while every scenario becomes fleeting.
chasing my lucid dreams
slipping through my fingers.
anticipating that kiss that hasn’t happened
enjoying it as the thought lingers.
curiosity often kills the cat
so i’m doing my best to decipher
cryptically straight forward answers.
perplexing brevity leaves me without clarity.
an unpredicted derelict fate
a vessel soon abandoned by both
without any hope or intention of returning
left with a sweet taste of yearning
i received your message
and learned my lesson
now my choices have left me discerning.
quick to understand
that as quickly as i’ve got it
its slipped out of my hand.
the future is unknowable,
but i don’t seek that insight.
i just want to open my heart
and let in more light.
If you haven’t met yet.. let me introduce you to @nikkiNOISE. Nikki was in town visiting for the holidays so i was eager to book her a shoot before she was swept away on her adventures in life.. next time we do a photo shoot with nikki we will be traveling to her : )
Nikki is always a pleasure to work with. She makes the cutest little dorky faces at me while i’m doing her hair and makeup.. which is always a nice reminder to smile and be silly.
This girl could keep herself entertained forever with the endless goodies and toys she keeps in her purse: tarot cards, scarves, snacks, toys.. i bet she’s got some magic Mary Poppins stuff going on in there.
One thing i’ve always loved about nikki is her ability to just have fun in life. She is so rooted with herself yet light as a feather.. always smiling and giggling. it was such a treat to be around her energy tonight. she’s an example of why i choose to surround myself with open, positive, loving people. it would be impossible to frown around this little goddess.
Love to love you nikki!
and to compliment her sweetness.. she could totally kick someones ass if needed; )
we all play our parts in making these shoots happen. I’m so thankful to create with this team of amazing humans. thank you sho and g for allowing me this experience. i’m forever grateful.
you can find more behind the scenes of a bohocrush photo shoot posts on the bohocrush blog. And if you’re interested in being a crush doll, boho boy, or perhaps doing a shoot with someone.. please contact me and at kendra(@)bohocrush(.)com and i will be more than happy to answer questions and schedule your bohocrush photo shoot.
tonight was @LovelyMonika’s first photo shoot with bohocrush.. and let me tell you.. this woman is a GIFT!
When someone has passion it shines.. radiates.. pulsates. I feel like i was given the best birthday present ever..
Monika : )
until tonight i’d never done pinup style hair and makeup on anyone besides myself. I was so excited to get Monika ready for her shoot. I have been researching all sorts of tip, tricks, and hints for the occasion and it all came in handy.
LisaFreemontStreet has some great you tube videos with all sorts of helpful knowledge. This one in particular stuck out in my mind as i was getting monika ready.
I am so excited for the doors that opened in my mind tonight.
My creative confidence is blossoming further and i’m so elated by the energy we all shared. There is so much passion in this world and i love to stir my hot coals and build that fire.
I think tonight was the first time i got to know more about Monika and see her sweet personality shine. one of my favorite things about boho shoots is getting to know the girls through the process.
She makes up the most delightful words.. we found that we have a few in common and she dropped a few awesome ones into my word bank.. like.. “spifandrifulus” hahaa it just sounds like the perfect way to describe how amazing the night was.
I’m so impressed with the way this girl moves. she’s very attentive and aware of her body.. she was born to be a pinup. She even practices her movements in a mirror.. something i highly suggest for all sorts of performing and modeling. seeing your body move helps create muscle memory and body awareness.
Today i was reminded to love, commit, challenge myself, do the best i can always, and step it up a notch. I feel blessed to have been given such a magical night. Thank you universe!! : )

two goddesses who always have my love and devotion. These two young women are truly beautiful spirits. so alive, fresh blossoms of an undiscovered flower. I was in awe of
their bodies moving like liquid with their fire toys.
@nikkinoise..@ladylillian.. i love you two so much and i cherish the moments we get to share with you. sending you on your journeys with love, spanks, licks, and tickles
thankful for my iphone.. i love getting to share my perspective behind these scenes : )
i didn’t get video of lilly because her boobies were out so much hehehe and qik doesn’t like boobies i guess.
I am pulled in by their energy.always. it could be a story of their adventures or a naked fire filled adventure in front of the boho lens.. no matter what.. these two goddess women capture my attention.
if you’d like to see more behind the scenes photos check out @gcrush’s post on the bohocrush blog
Your iphone camera is kicking ass g!! love the pictures.
Until her shoot last night, i hadn’t had the delight of spending a lot of time with Savannah .. i’m so pleased to have gotten to know her better.. she’s is such a kick ass woman. (and smokin hot!)
She was a breeze with makeup. such a beautiful goddess.
We always have the best time when we shoot in studio.. This time we had @pmimmy .. now named pennypuss.. dj the shoot. There are some things that just come naturally to people and penny is quite the hot little dj.
And i’ve witnessed her mean pussy punch too (crossing my fingers i never get one of those haha)
it takes a lot of love and team work to fuel these blissful boho shoots. so much FUN!
second to styling a shoot, my favorite part is the behind the scenes fun : ) @gcrush is a master at getting photos..music.. and wonderful snips of information about our crush dolls and boho boys. Check out her behind the scenes post of Savannah’s shoot on the bohocrush blog
i’ve been using some photos i took last night to get some practice using photoshop. . . as of now. . my skills are that of a n00b : )
but at the moment i’m only looking to use it as a hobby and a tool for my online adventures.. so i’m alright with keeping it at baby steps.
Sending endless love and gratitude to Savannah for sharing all of her love and laughter (and pussy punches) with us. I can’t wait until we get her outside.. she’s moves so naturally and smooth. Hugs and kisses my love.
It had been too long since i was last in front of the bohocrush lens.. today was exactly what i needed. Everyone has certain things that they can do to center themselves.. reboot.. hit the reset button. For me, the quickest way to centered bliss is to share love with the boho lens. i let go of all things complicated and connect with my body and my surroundings. i try my best because i am doing exactly what i want to be doing. i am in the moment.. exactly where i need to be doing what i want to be doing. Today Sho, g, and i created art… it did not exist before we made it and because we put so much loving energy into it, we were gifted with beautiful sky, light, and the perfect temperature of water. I am so thankful for today. it was the best day ever. i feel i must give musical credit here: i did pull some energy from the music i listened to while doing my makeup and hair. Today i was floating to Salmonella Dub while getting ready. I get a little nervous (all good nerves of course) so it helps me to relax with chill music while making myself up. My very first shoot with boho was on the playa so this wasn’t my first time outside, but it was my first time shooting at Lake Tahoe. I wanted my makeup to compliment the sexual energy that has been seeping out of my pours lately, but i also wanted to keep things soft and moody. I am quite pleased with the way everything turned out. I got to splash and soak in the water and drape myself on some beautiful massive granite stones. completely naked in nature.. it was therapeutic to thrust armfuls of water.. a cleansing release of playful energy that i often keep inside. I really enjoyed myself today. Now more than ever i am motivated to get my body bending and moving more. Photo shoots encourage me to check in with my body and work a little harder to take care of my health and flexibility. i want to DO not just talk about doing. Thank you for sharing my bliss. I’m still enjoying my photo shoot high and reflecting on all the beauty in my life. tonight.. for the first time in years.. i shed a few blissful tears of pure happiness. my heart is so open right now. i feel like i’m filtering in energy directly from the the mother ship.. with the lights out i would surely be glowing a rainbow. i wonder if it’s possible to explode from a high concentration of bliss. hahaa i hope everyone had an inspiring day. sending love to everyone coming through reno on their way to the playa. I won’t be out this year, but i can’t wait to hear about everyone’s adventures and see photos. sending love to @TheDoLaB and El Circo as they are joining forces for the Simpler Times camp this year. They will be blowing minds.. for realz They have put up a full list of artists and set times on facebook
enjoy your burn.. without pants )’(

**georgette posted a little behind the scenes love from my shoot. check it out here
I have been putting some thought into how i would like to share one of the most blissful parts of my path with all of you, and i’ve finally found a way i’d like to do it.
I am filled with bliss on my journey of doing hair and makeup for bohocrush photo shoots and i’d like to share some of the joy behind it, so after a shoot I’m going post some of the inspiration and beauty that helped breathe life into concepts, hair, makeup, and wardrobe (mostly lack of.. heehee)
I’m so pleased to be starting this out with @AlexiBunny. I’ve always known Alexi to be sweet, beautiful, and full of love.. she is sunshine inside and out. For the most part I have always kept her makeup natural and complimentary to the soft demeanor i was used to, but this time… we decided to turn up the sex.
After she scheduled her shoot with @gcrush she was sent my direction to discuss ideas, inspirations, hair, and makeup.. I was so excited to read that she wanted to play up the more sultry, womanly, sexual goddess part of herself. I encourage everyone to expand their comfort zones and play with their inner goddess/stallion energy, and i will happily assist with hair, makeup, wardrobe, concepts, and even fluffing ; )
Alexi sent me a few photos of what inspired her to want to portray her sexy side. . .
*Megan Fox makes me want to play with my sexy side too. MEOW!*
Like many things in life, sexy can be interpreted in many ways so it was helpful to have Alexi reference photos that showed the sexy she envisioned. After emailing photos and links back and forth i decided to keep her makeup in more natural smokey tones to brighten her beautiful blue eyes and give her a natural raw sex appeal (although i think alexi could rock sexy energy fresh out of bed sporting dragon breath.. meeeeow!)
AND i got a chance to try out this simple little trick i found for covering up dark circles and it worked like a charm
Thanks Kandee! She has great tutorials and tips on her YouTube channel.. i highly recommend you check it out if you’re looking for some makeup guidance. She’s such a sweet heart!
I’ll do a better job of getting a close up makeup shot and make a list of products for inquiring minds in the future : ) It’s always a learning process.. today it’s learning what i want to share and how to organize it.
I did most of her makeup before we headed up to the Lake and after a few touch ups upon arrival georgette rubbed her down with coconut oil.. a job we all love to watch g do.. she’s so GOOD at it heheehe
i love my iphone. g introduced me to the CameraBag app and i’ve quickly become addicted to the lovely photos i can get from my phone.
I like to call her sexy Alexi… for obvious reasons.
I’m so grateful for the love Alexi brings to any environment.. and now i’ve seen the sexy side. *hubba hubba*
**for more delicious boho snacks.. check out the bohocrush blog. gcrush posts behind the scenes photos, videos, and thoughts.. and many other insights that you may enjoy. Here is g’s behind the scenes post for Alexi’s shoot
I hope everyone has taken off their pants today and enjoyed a little dance.

I was recently asked via dm on twitter what the perfect man would be to me. My first thought was “there is no such thing as perfect”. We are always growing and evolving.. learning and making mistakes. I have never been on a path to find the perfect man. After quite a bit of thought i decided this:
He will be perfectly imperfect.. to me.
A creative spirit.. an artist.. always finding inspiration in the world around him, worlds unknown, and in worlds of the past. He would be of similar mindset as me when it comes to “work”.. we would find bliss in any journey we choose, but would not go about the world in any “normal” behavioral patterns. No 9-5 job to keep us limited. He would understand that it’s good to “be hungry” always searching for new and old to push us beyond our life limits.
he would sleep and wake with me as we were tired and awake, refusing the possibility of waking up at the same time every day to an alarm. In this way we would respect our bodies and their need to rest.
He would be connected to his body in many aspects. Listening to its animal urges and fuck me passionately whenever our hearts desired. I want a man who can look at me in line at the grocery store and decide he has to have me in the parking lot because home is a little bit TOO far away. There is no room for fear in a relationship with me.. there is just too much to enjoy about each other.
He would be my best friend. We would turn to one another to talk out our uncertainties and to relish in the golden light of another sunrise spent side by side. There would be no arguments or fights because fighting is simply lashing out your self doubts on an undeserving party. Communication would be the underlying foundation to our entire ralationship. Love, sex, decisions, simple things such as what to eat for breakfast or if he’s too tired to have sex.. all things big and small can avoid argument with proper communication and with each other we would learn the best way to communicate our needs and desires.
He would need to be open to whatever sexual exploits i wanted to delve in to. i would never make him take one for the team, but i will not let my sexuality be hindered by his insecurities or fears. In turn i would be open to his sexual desires. I’ve learned that sexual relationships take time to grow and you can’t always jump into something because you think it’s what the other person wants.. this is where the communication comes in again. I want to hear every though about what ever sexual pool we dive in to. Feelings don’t need to be hurt. I am aware that hormones can take over, and that is exactly why i want a man who will think not only of his own sexual desires but of mine as well.. in a few short words… i want a man who will worship me and my pussy and i will worship him and his cock : )
I don’t believe there is one most important thing to any relationship but sex is important to me as i am a ravenously sexual woman. I am also a giant internet loving geek so he would have to be ok with that too. No matter where we take our light in the world i would want to be capturing our adventures on video, blog post, podcast, photos, and web cam. He must certainly not be scared to show the world himself. I am me.. every day.. in all things i do in life and on the internet.. i am myself and i won’t hide it from the world.
Some may say this seems picky or demanding, but why would i settle for a guy who makes me sacrifice what makes me happy. I could be single forever or i could find a man who will not resist the bliss. I’m not afraid to be alone. I know there is a man (and a woman..) who can handle the NoPantsDance : )
Although this is a pretty lengthy answer i have kept things pretty vague. I’m not cataloging specifics.. height, weight, hair color, that is all blah blah blah. you never know who will love until you truly know that person. That will take time, but time is relevant and situational so i prefer to keep my eyes, ears, and heart open to whatever love the universe shows me.
What a beautiful day at the nude beach yesterday. we spent the afternoon in the sun, sand, and water waiting for the sun to get lower in the sky before we started @pmimmy’s bohocrush photo shoot. She is such a beautiful goddess.. so happy to get to know her.
Elated was the word of the day. exultant!
i can’t yet put words to where my bliss is leading .. all i can do is smile and share photos.
: ) #bliss
: ) well i almost forgot.. i wanted to share these little Qik videos of our hike the other day. I’ve gone through a wind tunnel of growth in the last few days. I’m feeling so thankful for the path i’m on. Sending love and gratitude.
enjoy.
everything felt like magic!
Again.. it’s hard to get the beauty across with an iphone camera, but i feel the need to capture these moments of inspiration so that i may go back and reflect when i’m feeling stuck or need a reminder of where my bliss shines : )
Even the smallest things in nature bring me so much joy. I was so excited to see this little waterfall. I’ve been drawn to water lately.. calmed by it’s voice and soothed by it’s blanketing touch. Feeling new.
