Daniel Robert Epstein: Richard Kern

My idol.... I love him quite much.

Thanks for the interview!!!!!!

"DRE: Did you ever get married?

RK: No...."

what about tacy?

This was a great interview, especially:

In some ways, this seems like what most of SG and other alt porn outlets is about- democratizing porn and creating a balance of power between the producers, the models, and the audience.

I've been a Kern fan for years. His movies, like "Fisted" and "You Killed Me First" were pretty much my into to underground movies. Then years later I found him again, shooting for Hustler's Leg World. I was pissed when that magazine went out of print. But now, thanks to SG, I got his website link. Awesome. Now I've gotta check out Lily's set

good stuff

Lily told me that she caught a lot of shit from other models on the site for shooting with me because I shoot for Barely Legal and things like that.

Fascinating. Guy is an accomplished photographer and a SuicideGirl gets shit from certain others because she used him to shoot her set. How "Punk Rock."

Hell, I'd be proud if he'd do my portrait; check out his Portfolio on his web site to see how well he captures people.

I love Richard Kern

he has this one shot of a girl with a furry coat on sitty on a toilet with rollerskates on.

This is my most favorite picture ever. I love it

i prefer richard karn

The clarification above was appreciated, Lily. Thanks. That's a relief to my principles -- as well as aesthetics. The implication of Kern's statement was that he's a persona non grata to some models on this site. Glad to hear that's not the case from your experience.
