"I've got a shoot at 3... maybe another day.."
Dawn gave a warm smile before ending the call. She stretched out her neck and made herself feel less tense. It's been about 5 years since that day, and everyday it felt like yesterday.
"You. I've got 4 cameras set up, and two set lights, but I need you to go get the props in my office."
"Yes. Ma'am"
"Ok! We're ready to start! Where's the cilent?"
Dawn talked to their client's manager and she said "He's just touching up on his makeup." Dawn understood and left to sit in the directors seat.
Finally the main character of the photoshoot arrived, and Dawn's heart sped up a little. She slowly turned away and smiled at him to seem professional.
She clapped her hands loudly and exclaimed "Let's get started!"
••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••••
"Lev! Your all sweaty!" Dawn overheard their clients manager exclaim and then one of their assistants approached her.
"Sorry for any inconvenience. Do you have any clean towels Lev could use?"
Dawn looked at her team and held the bridge of her nose, while closing her eyes. You know, the look of frustration and she walked over to her own personal belongings and took out a fresh white towel from her bag. Dawn threw it at the assistant, and said firmly "Come prepared. I don't cover extra services."
The assistant quickly nodded and rushed to swipe off Lev's sweat so they could touch up his makeup and continue the shoot. Dawn walked over to the where her team was monitoring the photos and noticed something a little off.
"For the next few shots try turning the angle just a bit to the left so you can capture his side profile. Focusing on his sharp jawline might make more of an impact on the viewers, considering his front profile is more rounder." The rest of the team agreed with her and went back to their stations.
In the middle of the photoshoot, Lev's manager suddenly called for a 5 minute break. Dawn agreed, sighing because of how tired she was getting and walked over to the photos to check the quality.
She didn't notice someone following her, and shivered a little when someone spoke closely by the side of her face.
"You own your father's photography studio now?"
Dawn took a step to the side and replied "Yep. It's mine." Not even sparing a glance at him as he spoke "How's everything here?"
"The usual for me. Preparing for photoshoots."
Lev nodded slowly, he didn't know what else to say.
"How has it been for you? What are the odds we could've met like this?"
She said and gave him a warm smile. She then looked at the time.
"Well, it was nice talking to you but we have to get back to work."
Dawn walked away from him and yelled "5 MINUTES IS OVER! C'MON GUYS LET'S GET BACK TO WORK!"
Lev kept the smile from forming on his lips and walked to his manager. They did a little team cheer.
"Now who are you?! The most famous model in this country!
"LEV AMOR!"
His manager gave him a pat on the pat and he walked back into the spotlights. Dawn gulped, putting her eye on the lenses and then snapping a stolen shot of the moment. She was proud of him.
