Well, my career in Nevada's legal brothel industry has ended.

Got an email from my client today telling me she's no longer going to be working at the brothel.

That means I won't either.

It was one hell of a ride.

I've been here 8 months and I've designed Websites, been a DJ, and worked for a bordello. As of right now I am back to my primary trade, Web Designer / Photographer, but who the hell knows what the next stop on the journey will be.

Is she going to marry the Governor (I know nothing of Nevada politics), moving to a bigger, richer market, what?

And what of you, you have have provided fantasy material for so many DUers out there . . . in the darkness . . . of wherever their humble abode may be . . . hoping for something more . . . fulfilling?

If someone alerted on this thread because of a link with a stern warning attached (they did, verdict was 5-1 in my favor), I imagine full-scale Armageddon if I tell any of the stories I have stockpiled. Looks like you'll just have to by my tell-all / insiders book.

I went to visit the Cherry Patch brothel with my husband - since we are fairly new NV residents and he'd never seen a legal brothel before. Everyone was great and very friendly. We didn't request any services, however

If I was hiring someone to take pictures of food or naked people you'd be on the A-list.

Don't know what the market is for boudoir photography, but damn, you've got talent.

...it's something I love, along with the food photography. There actually was a local photographer who promoted himself last year during the holidays for boudoir photos. His stuff really wasn't that inspiring, which means there's a market locally for photos that are.

Now that I've done it professionally I plan to market it along with everything else I do.
