Hi all, I'd like to tell you about what happened to me not too long ago. I suppose we all have a favourite sexual encounter that we like to reminisce about. Well, this is my story, and I hope you enjoy it as much as I did.
Before I start on my story, I should tell you a little bit about myself. My name is Mark Caldwell, and I'm just an average guy in my late forties. Like most guys my age, I struggle to keep the love handles under control as I head into my well earned mid life crisis, but have decided to do my best with a reasonable diet, a little exercise and letting my hair turn silvery grey naturally. I'm one of those lucky people who've managed to turn a childhood interest into a career. I've always been interested in photography. Right from the time I got my first Box Brownie camera at twelve years of age, I was looking for the creative and unusual photograph that would turn the heads of my parents and friends. I started my own business early on in the piece, it would never make me rich, but it helped buy us a nice home and put our children through the education of their choice.
My wife and soul mate Rachel, had her own career which brought in more dollars than mine, but I never had the problem of not wanting to get out of bed in the mornings like she often did. Rachel was one in a million, she would never win any beauty contests, but to me she was a handsome woman who just got prettier and more desirable with age. She was fair haired, on the tall side with small breasts and a runner's physique. Her legs were long and shapely, and turned dark brown in the summer sun. As a couple, we got on superbly; we talked plenty, disagreed seldom and argued never. After successfully dispatching our two teenage children into the big wide world to make their own way, Rachel and I turned to each other and settled down to a quiet and harmonious life style. Unlike some couples, being on our own after children was simply bliss, we did what we wanted when we wanted, and earned enough financially to do just that.
My Rachel was fairly conservative when it came to sex. To her it was a private act, and having anyone else in the house was always a distraction, young children and teenagers especially. Her coming from a strict religious background was part of it I suppose. While I'm no heathen, over the years I've managed to get her to relax and be a bit more open minded about it. In saying that, she's a wonderful lover who likes to please her man, lucky old me of course. And when the time's right, which is quite often, she happily wraps her long legs around my waist and lets me ride her until I'm too tired to continue. A few years back, I brought her a vibrator for a birthday. At first she was sort of disgusted, but then changed her mind after a few trial runs, she's on her third one now. Funny thing is that she only plays with one of her toys when I'm around. She tells me it never occurs to her to do a solo act when I'm not there. I'd like to think that it's because I'm such a stud, but in my heart I know that Rachel's idea of good sex is about two people who love each other.
In the early days, I made good money and helped build my business by doing wedding photos. Now, most photographers will agree that weddings are damned hard work. You're completely at the mercy of the weather, disruptive children, frayed hung-over tempers and sometimes unrealistic demands of the bride or groom. And there are some people who just aren't photogenic; you can't make a silk purse from a sow's ear. In saying that, sometimes a wedding take can be one of the most rewarding days of your career, but not often. Weddings also have a detrimental affect on your own social activities and family life. An understanding wife is a must, luckily my Rachel was. But in the last seven years or so, I've managed to build a little niche for myself doing mostly video work for business customers. This includes some low budget promotional work, but my real niche is now in the sports, and health and safety area. This has allowed me to move away from weddings, although I'll still do the occasional one for someone that I know.
I ran into Simone and Robert at a local rowing regatta. On the outskirts of our fine city, a long flowing river provides the perfect facility for rowers of all ages. Our schools eagerly promote future rowers from singles up to eights. My part in this was that I was asked by the club to film the boats as they crossed the finishing line, and then the long term plan was to make up a photographic history of the sixty year old club. Now, I'm one of those people that have a great memory for faces, but unfortunately not for names, and I have to admit that it has embarrassed me on more than one occasion. As for Simone and Robert, well I knew that I'd met them previously but couldn't place them. In my strong defence, I've dealt with so many people over time and can't be expected to remember all of them.
However, Simone recognised me immediately and promptly reminded me that I'd taken their wedding photos fifteen or so years previous and did a wonderful job. I nodded my head in appreciation and pretended that I remembered. However, as the day wore on, their big day slowly came back to me. It was more Simone's mannerisms than anything else, her bubbly personality and cheeky laugh that eventually stirred my memory. They were an attractive couple, he tall, dark and powerfully wide shouldered. Being a competitive rower herself, Simone too was wide shouldered, but her strong physique complimented her good looks. Her shoulder length curly hair was bleached blonde from long hours in the sun; her skin was the colour of dark copper. Her face was attractive but not beautiful, maybe her face was too angular and her nose a little long, but it was her huge green eyes that were her most redeeming feature. They seemed to sparkle every time she smiled or laughed. Along with a lot of others around that day, I also appreciated her full breasts and great long shapely legs which appeared nicely out of denim cut off shorts.
As Simone and Robert were on official duties at the finishing line, I spent a lot of time in their company that day. We became more familiar as time went on and we laughed and generally had a good time as we worked. The evening turned into a social night and I was seated at their table during the meal and later speeches and prize giving. After a thoroughly good day and night, I left for home and family after handing Rob a business card as I normally do. Business networking is sometimes an underestimated tool, but not to me. I ran into them a couple of more times at the rowing club while working on that project, and we always had a good time.
It was about ten months later that I got a call from Rob; he had a job that I might be interest in doing for him. So, on a Wednesday night, I drove to their house without the slightest inkling about what was to befall me. We sat around for awhile and chatted aimlessly, Simone sat close to Rob on a leather couch. Her long legs this time were ensconced in tight jeans, but I didn't really take too much notice. I suppose I'd been there for an hour before Rob brought up what I'd been asked around for. He'd just rescued more beers from the fridge and sat down.
"So Mark, how broadminded are you?" he asked after taking a sip.
It was a strange question really, "Reasonably." I replied.
They both smiled and Simone looked up at Rob.
"Have you ever done any adult stuff?" he asked.
"You mean porn? No, I haven't." I replied honestly and wondering where this was going.
"Simone and I want to video ourselves making love. You know; something we can look back at in our advancing years. We've tried to do it with a camera and tripod but it's not good enough. We want better quality with close ups and everything. We've thought about getting someone to film us, and Simone suggested you might be interested."
I was sort of stunned into silence.
"We'd pay you to do it." Simone added.
I scratched my head as I began to come to terms with what was being proposed.
"Well, I've never really even thought about doing an adult movie, but it has some obvious difficulties. You would have to have very good lighting which would go against doing it in a dark room. Also, the audio would be a little challenging."
Rob continued, "We wouldn't mind doing it in a light room, it'd kind of be fun. If the video was good, we'd put up with the best sound quality that was possible."
"The big question is; would you be interested in filming us?" Simone asked.
"Yeah, I'd like to give it ago. It'd be a new challenge." I replied without hesitation.
"Before we go any further, I just want to let you know that it's only going to be the two of us having sex. You won't be asked to participate." Simone said. "I hope that doesn't change things, but Rob and I have never been unfaithful to each other and never plan to be."
I have to admit that I was initially a little disappointed, but only for a few seconds as commonsense soon took over.
"That's okay." I replied. "I'm happily married and I don't want to jeopardise my relationship either."
