This story is about another incident that happened while I dated Bob. As I've mentioned in some of my earlier stories. I met him while we both attended art school up in New England. I was Fine Arts major and he was in the schools Photography program. As our relationship progressed, I started to model for him if he wanted to try some new ideas out for his photography.
At first it was just portraits and clothed shots, but eventually it progressed to some lingerie shots, then topless but not exposing anything, just kinda sexy. Finally, I agreed to let him photograph me in the nude. He had a way with lighting and I suppose I had a way of posing that really produced some interesting, provocative shots. Most never saw the light of day, Bob just used them to perfect his technique and were kept as our kind of private little turn on game.
After a while though, Bob started getting some really good shots and wanted to show them in class. He wore me down or I maybe I just relented a bit; I don't know. I guess, at the time, it seemed that I was making a bigger issue of the whole thing that was necessary. I figured that as long as my face wasn't shown, it shouldn't really be a problem with him using the pictures for his classes. What I didn't think about at the time was the fact that he had used me pretty much exclusively for most of his clothed and portrait photography up to this point. So when he started bringing in these black and white nude studies, everyone in class just assumed it was me anyway. For a long time, No one ever said anything, but I did notice that the guys and some of the girls looked at me a bit more speculatively when I would go to parties and other school events.
I guess I was really pretty oblivious to it all until one night at a party a girl in Bob's class commented on how good a model I was and would I be interested in modeling for her sometime. I thanked her and as we talked I realized that the shots she liked included some of the nude ones. I just looked at her, I guess with a kind of shocked look and she realized that she let something slip.
“How did you know that was me?” I asked her.
Somewhat hesitantly, she said that pretty much everyone just assumed that it was me because most of the earlier modeling was of me and the figure matched those earlier clothed shots.
“I'm really sorry” she apologized; “I just assumed that you knew and were cool with it. I think it's really ballsy on your part and wish I had someone willing to do the same for me, so I figured what the hell, I’d ask. You know, you really have a great body” she finished.
After a bit of a pause to gather my thoughts, I told her that I was OK with the posing, just a bit uncomfortable with everyone realizing that the nudes were of me too.
“Oh god, Jenn you shouldn't be! You have such a presence, it's incredible, really incredible, but think about it, I don't want to pressure you...Ok! When you're ready, let me know. I think you're a great model and I'd love to work with you.”
I thanked her and said that I would think it over and get back to her either way.
That night on the way back home I mentioned to Bob what Linda had told me about my photos.
“Ummmm, I guess I just never thought about it too much, I didn't think that it would ever be an issue, it was just photography.” He was quiet for a few miles. Then he asked, “So... What do you think??”
“I don't know”, I answered, “I mean I'm kind of embarrassed that everyone has seen me bare ass, I mean I guess it depends on how much you showed them, was it just my breasts or everything?” He hesitated a moment and finally replied, “well nothing pornographic if that’s what you’re asking, but maybe a couple of shots where your pussy is showing.”
I turned and looked at him stunned, “My god Bob, what were you thinking? You told me that no one would know it was me!”
“Hey, it's not like I showed your face, I kept my word, I can't help that some of them figured out it was you. You could've thought of that as well as me. You knew that I was using the images in class.”
“Yeah” I agreed “and I don't have much of a problem with people seeing my tits, but my pussy, Jesus Bob, why not just show them the video where you're fucking me for Christ's sake. I bet they’d love that one.”
“Oh come on Jenn, it's not that bad, everyone loved the shots... even the women. If anyone thought that it was crude or in poor taste I would've heard about it. You know how the women in my class are. Maybe I shouldn't have shown those ones that showed your pussy, but the shots were so good and everyone loved everything I shown so far that it just seemed like a natural progression.”
“Now I know why I've been getting looks around school, even your goddamn instructor has been giving me the eye.”
I stopped for a moment after I said that about his instructor and thought about that comment.
I looked at Bob, “you showed him everything didn't you?”
Bob was silent. “You did you bastard! You showed him all the shots... everything!”
“Hey come on now, he's helping me put my portfolio together, I need his advice and I needed to show him everything I had so we could pick out the best.”
“So you showed him the sex shots too?”
“Yeah I just said I showed him fucking everything Jenn”, Bob said getting pissed himself now.
“What the fuck Jenn, you knew that I was working on my book. What was I supposed to do? Keep portfolio shots hidden because you're a little shy. I promised I wouldn't show anything nude with your face in class and I kept my word, I can't fucking help it if people guessed it was you. As far as Jack is concerned, he’s helping me, he has contacts in New York, so I left him the full storage box of 8x10's. He was sensitive to the fact that you might be uncomfortable with people seeing some of shots and so didn't even look at it at school, he took it home for the weekend to go over my stuff, so he's the only one besides me who's seen them. I told him that you would be sensitive about anyone else seeing some of the shots and he promised that no one other than himself would review them. He went through them and when I met with him the following Tuesday he had sorted out the ones that I should blow up for my portfolio. He thought you were an awesome model, in fact he wanted to know if you'd be willing to pose for him sometime too. I told him you probably wouldn't because you were shy around other men. He was also the one who said that we should keep the more intense ones for the portfolio and not show them in class, but he thought they were some of the technically best ones, he really liked them.”
