'I'm an exhibitionist and I love showing off.'
Were you comfortable being nude in public(nude beaches) prior to modeling?
I'm an exhibitionist and I love showing off - but I would not consider myself a nudist. I find it extremely erotic to strip down in front of someone. I'm not big on nude beaches - sure, I like eye candy, but I also adore tan lines and so I prefer to be in a Speedo when I'm in the sun. I definitely enjoy stripping down and feeling eyes on me in a locker room or bathhouse...and I've known that about myself for countless years.
What made you choose 'Searsucker Stud" as your initial credit?
It was in the early days of my sexy Instagram account. I was such a fan of so many sexy guys on that platform...and my favorites had a clever or cute moniker. When I thought about my style, personality and aesthetic - it was inescapably southern. In my captions I regularly used "y'all" and my attire included seersucker and bow ties. I brainstormed with a great friend named Januari and we came up with the name "Seersucker Stud." It was my handle for quite a while until I changed to Ryan St. Michael after entry into professional porn.
How did you connect with Tom from TR Pics?
I'm sure it was Instagram. I did my first shoot with him when I was staying at an AirBnb in Dallas in the Fall of 2021. I had only recently launched my OnlyFans - and so our time together included a photoshoot that went from mild to wild: seersucker suit, briefs + jocks and then fully nude. After the photoshoot he graciously agreed to film a solo stroke session that I could use within my new OnlyFans. Tom and I had a blast. He's kind and funny...and you can tell that he really loves doing this.
What was your favorite part about working with Tom?
I can't say enough good things about Tom. We communicate very well. We have a mutual appreciation for attention to detail. After that first photoshoot, we stayed in touch. We've done three or four photoshoots since the original. Early on, he offered to help me with by video editing. To that end, he has been a major part of the growth and success of my career. I am eternally grateful for his help and expertise.
How do you feel about being labeled a 'daddy'?
I'm into it. I mean I do think there are stages of "daddy." I'm still passing as a "young dad" or "dad next door." And I'm sure I'll gladly embrace the "silver daddy" when my grey hair comes in even more. It's a dynamic that I enjoy during private hookups. I certainly have a kink for daddy + son roleplay. And, to be very honest, when I'm on the apps or looking to hookup, I'm kind of inundated with requests for it. 😬 I'm not complaining...
Are there any downsides to being a 'daddy' in the films? Does it typecast you?
I don't think so. I like it - and I think studios have me on their roster when they need a daddy, or rather "step-dad." 😉 In addition to an actual daddy role, I'm also ripe for roles with the Mormon or Scout theme. I have no piercings. No tattoos. My haircut is close-cropped. When I first shot with Say Uncle for Family Dick, I showed up on set in my regular clothes. The director looked at me and said "can you wear that for filming?" I totally dress like a "dad" in real life, New Balances and all.
What is your personal definition of a 'daddy'?
This is a great question and I appreciate it. I'm not a "dom" daddy. My personal definition of a daddy is someone that's in control - but he's kind and considerate - he wants to really take care of his boy to ensure that he's comfortable and fully satisfied. I believe in and love communication before, during and after sex. I ask if he's ready to have sex. I like to ask what position will be most comfortable for him to start. Consent is hot. I know many guys crave a dominant daddy that doesn't ask questions and gives commands but that's just not me.
What most surprised you about working in the industry that you didn't expect?
I'm very fortunate - everyone has been extremely kind...most especially the crews that I've worked with. You do hear horror stories about unreasonable hours and impossible demands. The teams of professionals that I've worked with have been so patient, affirming and communicative - ensuring that I'm comfortable in all stages of film production
Do you have a favorite scene, or a favorite scene partner that you've shot?
It's so totally impossible to answer this question. 😅 But if I'm forced to pick, I'd say my favorite scene partner was Dante Clark. We filmed Missionary Boys in Miami together in March of this year for Say Uncle. We had such an amazing connection. The studio put us up in an Airbnb in the Little Havana district. After filming we'd enjoy very cute restaurants, shops and just wandering the neighborhood together. It was very much a boyfriend experience.
My favorite scene I'll have to say was with Carnal for Boy for Sale. 4 daddies, including Legrand Wolf, are sitting around a gorgeous, well-appointed living room discussing moving their operations into Argentina. Each daddy has a boy next to him in a black bowtie and a black jock. At the onset they rub our shoulders, take our shoes off, get us a drink. Then, it progresses to full-on raw fucking. The boys then rotate like an assembly line and go from daddy to daddy. I fucked all four: Serg Shepard, Chase Tyler, Cole Blue and Clayton Foster. It was unreal. It was my peak moment in life.
Have you lost your composure or started laughing during a scene?
I have definitely started laughing during a scene. One with Carnal when we were filming for Scout Boys. I cannot remember the line but it somehow had a tongue twister in it. I totally flubbed it. Said oh sorry y'all lemme do that part again. Then, literally repeated the exact same flubbed dialogue. It was a trip and everyone laughed. Haha on the third try I nailed it. In my experience, there aren't a lot of cuts and breaks until the scene wraps. Generally shooting a scene takes about an hour - and often you'll shoot one in the morning and then one in the afternoon.
Any current adult film actor (past or present) you'd love to work with?
Gosh - after meeting him at the Grabby's (and chatting some after...) I now have a big crush on Sir Peter. It would be a dream to film with him. I also adore Beau Butler and I really admire the way he's strong at content across platforms. I'm a massive Legrand Wolf fan and so it's been a huge honor to work with him. Historically, my favorite porn star was Lukas Ridgeston.
