About Me

I'm an artist and filmmaker living in LA. Here is a link to read more about my kinky sex documentary: .. BEYOND VANILLA ....and you can read more here: amazon.com . If you have seen the film and like it, I would love it if you added your rating or posted some nice reviews at those sites. Thanks!I'm always working on several projects and right now I am working on a documentary about pageants and contests in the GLBT community and how image projections and ideals are used to achieve political goals. I'm also looking for people who want to model for a nude calendar and photo exhibit that I'm planning for next year. Visit my website at www.claeslilja.com! If you want to add me a as a friend here and I don't know you, please send me a message as well.
