FLASH!
Pink-glossed lips pulled endless smiles without feeling tired and numb. A pair of cinnamon brown eyes stood out, its twinkle never faltered and remained glistening like shiny pebbles. The voluptuous body knew exactly what to do–the right movement and angle of arms, as to how it'd appear befitting for a shot. Each pose was different from the other, there was no dull moment.
FLASH!
'Look at me now.' The favorite Selena Gomez's song played repetitively in her head.
The photographer was done with his final shot and shook his head in astonishment. "Wow, I'm impressed Dane...you are undoubtedly gorgeous"
"Do you mind emailing me some of these shots? Can I use them as my profile pictures on social media?" Dane asked, pointing at the pictures she preferred to get.
"Yeah, of course, let me apply some minor polishing and I'll email it to you, but y'know even if I don't edit, your pictures will look just fine" A wide playful grin plastered on the photographer's face. "Dang it, Dane, you're killing it!" He laughed, "Plus you are making my job easier unlike some!"
Dane hit him on the shoulder lightly, a playful gesture as she chuckled. "We are helping each other succeed in our work, Eli"
The staff around them began to unroll the coverings, turn off headlights, and arrange pieces of equipment back to their packing as they finally called it a day. The backdrop in the studio was carefully taken down. Dane went to the dressing room to get changed. After putting into a comfortable white top and denim shorts, Dane sat in front of her vanity dresser and stared at herself.
