Beautifully Taken

Chapter Three

Todd had been working all day with me on the computer, introducing me to new photo editor applications, ones that would make the pictures I took more professional and what he called 'Eye popping'. Ian took a couple of hours off to go eat lunch and do as he wished until we were ready to call him back for his photo shoot.

I was sitting at the computer working on using and getting to know all of the tools on the applications. I was trying to photo shop a flower with a bright orange sunset in the back. To be honest, right now it was looking a little crappy, but only because I was getting used to the tools.

Ian walked in through the door and shut it behind him before turning to smile at me.

“Are we ready yet?” he asked.

“I think so. Todd should be back any minute, he just went to the office to drop off some late paper work.” I answered.

He nodded and took a few steps toward me.

“Whats this?” He asked as he was leaning over me, glancing at the work I was doing on the computer.

I sighed “I'm trying to photo shop this picture. You know...make it look better and more eye popping. I honestly think it's crappy.”

I glanced up at him and he was silent for a few seconds.

I noticed that he smelled faintly of cigerettes and black coffee with a little hint of cologne. It wasnt the best smell in the world, mostly because of the cigerettes but he didnt smell bad.

He nodded

“No, it looks great actually. Probably better than the ones i've seen most people edit. I'm excited to see how these pictures come out. They'll probably end up everywhere on the internet.”

I nodded.

“Hey guys, i'm back. Are we ready to get started on this photo shoot?” he asked us.

We both nodded in unison and I got up.

“Yeah, tottaly. I'm excited we get to work with her, she's definantly talented.” Ian exclaimed.

I blushed. I was anything but talented. I mean I dont even look talented. I have short milky brown hair, dark blue eyes and a little chubby in the stomache. You can definantly tell i'm not good at sports. I suck at singing, I cant act to save my life and I in all of my years cant solve a freaking rubix cube. I am far from being considered talented.

Todd smiled and looked at me before answering back.

“Me too Ian. We are lucky to have her with us for this short period of time that she is going to spend with us. Now...let's get started shall we?”

We spent the remainder of the day waiting then taking a few pictures, waiting taking pictures and waiting some more. Ian had too take most of the time we had to get dressed, have professionals put light make up on, barley noticeable and do his hair. After that it was all an uphill ride.

He was easy to take pictures of, he was no doubt photogenic and enjoyed every bit of it. He would always pose perfectly, doing exactly the right moves to make the photo look good, and we never had to tell him what to do. He was perfect.

Right now we were going to take our last photos of the day before we would head on home.

Ian came out wearing brand new levi skinny jeans with a black leather belt buckle, navy blue tuxedo jacket and pink shirt underneath, and to top it all of his hair was perfectly gelled upnaturally. Needless to say, he looked great.

“How do I look?” he asked turning around and doing funny poses as a little joke.

I lightly laughed as he smiled.

“Great!” I answered.

Todd just nodded and handed Ian a small white teddy bear that had a heart on it that said 'I love you!'.

“Whats this?” Ian asked.

“What does it look like? It'll be valentines in a couple of months. The girls will love these on valentines cards and chocolate boxes.

Ian smiled brightly and nodded, walking over to the stool in front of the green screen.

He did a few poses, kissing the bear and doing funny faces every once in a while, making both me and Todd laugh. By the end of the day we had tons of great pictures that we could work with and I was personally excited to edit them.

Ian came out of the bathroom and snatched his black leather jacket off of the hook before saying goodbye to Todd and me.

“It was really nice to meet you Breanna, i'll see you later.”

“Bye” I said before walking out the door to meet India.
