Lily shot her first adult scene in 2008 (age twenty-three) and it was with Capri Cavalli for Cavalli’s website. Afterwards she continued performing in small films that she mostly found by answering ads on Craigslist. None of those films was ever released. Besides as a porn star, she also works as an adult director and her first work was Art School Dykes, for which she received nomination for the Feminist Porn Award in 2011. Lily is known as “Porn Valley’s Gold Star Lesbian”.

She insists on performing with women only, but she directs boy/girl videos. So far she has collaborated with productions such as Exquisite, Filly Films, Girlfriends Films, Nightingale Pictures, and Pure Play Media. Lily received a nomination for an AVN Award for Best All-Girl Group Sex Scene in both 2011 and 2012.
