I got into the office by nine and started organizing the appointments for the week. Activity was picking up and already the schedule was looking good.
Alex arrived just before ten, looking absolutely delectable. She gave me a quick kiss and sat down opposite me at my desk. She kept an air of professionalism that said 'no hanky-panky'. I was grateful. At least someone was in control.
We got down to business. First up was a couple of mother/baby shoots for her in the studio. There was a mixed bag of shoots for her on Wednesday, some indoor and some outdoor. All up a good start for her to get a handle on the business, equipment and software.
Her first client arrived soon after and I left her to take care of the session whilst I worked on organizing some freelance jobs that would provide more income and varied work for us both.
The phone rang. I recognized Mike's number.
"Hi Mike! What's up?" I answered.
"You'll never guess!" he said excitedly.
I felt a bit ill. I knew what it was about and could have told him.
"Okay, since I'll never guess, then you better tell me."
"Lisa's pregnant!" He sounded like all his Christmases had come at once.
"Mike!" I replied, trying to sound overjoyed. "That's fantastic! When did you find out?"
"Just yesterday. I tried to phone your mobile was off. You must have been out all day."
"Kind of. I need the week to recover. I'm pretty shagged from the weekend."
He laughed. "You'll wear yourself out if you keep on bonking everything in sight you know. You need to settle down. Get into some monotony, see how the other half lives."
"That's monogamy Mike." I corrected.
"Same thing isn't it?" he quipped back with a little chuckle.
"Hey, Lisa and I would like you over for dinner on the weekend if you can manage?"
"Yeah, sure," I replied.
"Bring along, ummmm, whomever you're going out with at the moment too."
"Jeez Mike, you make it sound like I've got a harem at my disposal!" I immediately thought it probably wasn't far off the truth, the way things had been going.
"I'm a bit jealous I suppose, but you sure know how to pick em!" he laughed.
"Thanks!" I answered. "Text me the dinner details and send my congratulations to Lisa. I'll see you then!"
"Ciao!" he replied and hung up.
The rest of the day passed normally and Alex completed her shoots and worked with me on the digital editing. She had done a great job capturing the mood and atmosphere of the mothers and babies. There was a very good selection of shots for them to choose from.
All too soon it was time for Alex to go. We only had time for a quick hug and kiss before she had to race off to uni for a night class.
The next few weeks was going to be dry. Alex was completing her final semester and only had the weekends off. Amber was approaching exams and had virtually no time off. It was a bit of a blessing in disguise as it gave me time to look for a new apartment closer to the office. Now that the business was getting established, I could afford to take a new place by myself now and not put up with flat mate foibles.
I thought about visiting Lisa, but this week was difficult with the pile work to do. Better I get my head down and concentrate on work. Play could wait.
+++++++++++++++++++++++
Before I knew it Friday had arrived. Alex had come in on Wednesday for a couple of shoots and was also due in today. I was so fortunate in having her. She was the right person at the right time for the business. That she was my hot girlfriend was a big bonus.
The door chimed and moments later Alex walked into the office looking stunning as usual. I wanted to bend her over the table and fuck her right there. The fact that I hadn't had any sex since she blew me on Monday morning wasn't helping either.
"Hi David!" she said cheerily as she walked over and kissed me.
I clasped a hand onto her backside and groped my other one up to the nearest breast, latching on and massaging it. My cock immediately started to stiffen.
"Mmmmmmm" she moaned in my mouth as my hands worked on her yielding flesh.
She pulled her head back, breaking the bond of our lips.
"Hey lover boy. We got work to do! What's up today?"
I looked up at her pleadingly as she stepped back out of my grasp and back around the table to her chair.
I groaned and slumped forward, my forehead hitting the tabletop.
"But I'm going to explode!" I said pathetically in a vain attempt to gain sympathy.
"Well, just hold it in for a few more hours and I'm sure I can drain you of all your life fluids tonight. I promise!" she replied, unswayed by my plight.
I looked up at her. "Really?"
She smiled back. "Really. I'm just as desperate to have your fat cock ramming my tight pussy and feeling your cum running out of my hole, but we have to concentrate on the work at hand."
I smiled back at her. "God you're nasty! Did I say I love you yet?"
"Not today, but I already knew that you do. I love you too."
Working with Alex was going to be difficult, but rewarding. She had her head screwed on right. I wish I could say the same for myself.
"Okay," I said, finally resigning myself to the situation. "We have an interesting one today. I'll definitely need your help on it."
She raised an eyebrow as a silent question.
"It's one of those 'sensual' shoots. You know, married for x years, wanting to recapture some spice back into the relationship stuff with enticing photos."
"Like lounging around in a negligee with that 'come fuck me' look?" she asked.
"To be blunt, yes, but there's a little more to it than that. It has to be tasteful, but erotic, without going all hardcore. I need a woman's touch on this one and your lighting skills. You're good at that and I don't know the site."
"It's not here?" she queried.
"On location at her place. She wants some varied shots and she probably feels more comfortable at home. Being relaxed for these shoots is important.
"I've hired a van for the day so we can load all the gear into it. We need to be there by eleven, so lets get cracking!"
We quickly packed all the relevant equipment into the van and made our way out to the client. The house was a nice two story affair in a tree lined street of an affluent suburb.
We walk up to the large double front door and rang the bell. I gave Alex's backside a playful squeeze as we waited and she looked at me.
"David! Best behavior now!" she scolded.
"Yes ma'am!" I replied sheepishly and withdrew my hand from her firm butt.
We heard footsteps within then one door opened inwards. A gorgeous woman in her early to mid thirties stepped out. She was about five and half feet tall, dark brown hair cut short to just below her ears where the ends of her hair pointed forward.
Alluring dark eyes and a long slim neck offset her fine featured and very pretty face. Full lips accentuated her delicate features.
