Tales of the Vault

At last count, there were about 180 shot, but unedited, videos in the video vault of the Bluestone mansion, protected by the mansion's resident pterodactyl guaradian. Best not to attempt to circumvent this creature. He is wise beyond his years! :eek:

There have not been enough custom video orders in order for me to justify continuing to finance future mega-shoots. So, I have decided to suspend all further mega-shoots, and not accept any future custom work for Petra, Suzi, Velvets, Tina, Debbie D, Nicole and Tiffany. I have many many videos starring these headliners, so I'll be starting to release them once I finish editing my May batch of customs. For example, you will see work that was shot with Precious Petra five years ago. You will see Suzi videos shot almost seven years ago.

I will now only be posting stills in order to promote videos that I am currently editing for release. Firstly, this is so as not to frustrate you with images from videos that you may not see for several months. Secondly, it's to free up my time so that I can edit more, and more quickly.

So, the vault will be opening soon, and you'll be amazed at what gems lie behind those locked doors!

Mmmmm, if I understand well:
1) no more NEW Petra's videos in the future (and no november shoot at all!)... :? :cry:
2) in the list of actresses there aren't Kerie and Lena, so I suppose that you'll shoot with them again, right? :roll:

Wellllllll, in answer to your queries:
1) There will be no November shoot unless Petra is well enough, and wishes, to attend. If she is coming, I'll announce it on FF, because it may be the last opportunity to get a custom featuring her. I kept warning everyone that each shoot may be the last, but the custom requests trailed off nonetheless, except for the old reliables, such as you, Kevin67 and Gold;
2) I'll continue to shoot with Kerie and Lena. No air fare to pay for them, or longer shoots to justify these expenses. ;-)

Hi Blue,

I read your vault blog last night and decided to sleep on it. Except for Petra, it does come as a surprise, although you did say that someday you would stop shooting and just present what you have in your so called vault. If Petra does return for a November shoot, will you be taking customs for that shoot? Also, will Kerie and Lena be available for customs? Your blog seems to indicate no customs whatsoever.

Hey, Dumb Kevin67... er, I mean... you didn't change your username, did you? :D

If Petra comes and there is a November shoot, I will indeed be taking custom requests, because it will be the last opportunity for people to get a Petra custom. In fact, last chance to get a Suzi custom too. If Petra doesn't come, I won't be doing a November mega-shoot at all.

Yes, I will still be shooting with Kerie and Lena, and I will be accepting customs featuring them.

Will Petra be allowed to come and do minor shoots if there's stories for her? Or is her schedule set up so she can only do mega-shoots? Of course this is all dependent on her health, but I would hate for her to be forced into retirement unless she's ready and wants you to announce it.

If/when it is time for her to retire, will you please do an exit interview and maybe an "interview interrupted" to give her a last hurrah?

A couple of years ago, if not earlier, Petra retired from her modeling and acting careers. From and after that point in time, she only worked for me, because she enjoyed our shoots. Since she lives in Europe, to bring her over to North America costs a lot of money and is a long trip for her. So, both of us wanted to make our shoots at least 5 days long to justify a long and expensive trip across the pond. If Petra decides that she wants to shoot with me in November, I'd like nothing better, and it will be no shorter than 5 days, because that's what we both agreed to. If she decides not to return again, there will unfortunately be no exit interview video.

As for Suzi, she'd love to come back and continue our shoots together. It was my decision to suspend the mega-shoots unless Petra can come for a Farewell Tour. If Petra can come, we'd have a Farewell Tour for my two most popular death fetish ladies.

I hope that explains the situation better. It's hard to type with tears welling in my eyes. :cry:

Well then I'm keeping my fingers crossed for November. She's meant a lot to me over the years, with both you and Annabelle. She's one of the old school guards, and was there when I first found the death fetish community, and I'd love to see her do one last tour with a good exit interview (lol, we're total comics nerds aren't we?). And I hope she knows that and appreciates how much her fans love her.

And I didn't mean to make you cry. :frown: But yes, that did explain the situation better. I don't know if it makes it easier or not, but I'm sure seeing these vault videos and, since some seem so early, watching her evolve from someone that was a talented improviser at Annabelle's to a straight up, class act actress today and seeing how it all adds to her legacy.

Much of the same goes for Suzi as well!

Yes, thanks for the clarification, Blue. Agree it is a very sad time that Petra has decided to re-retire, just hope she can come back in NOvember for one last hurrah
