Chapter 516: What the Lady wants, The Lady gets.
The days went incredibly fast. It was fortunate that Hellen and Diane were both around to help out with the wedding arrangements, and Jen barely had to lift a finger. In fact, they were having too much fun with the whole thing and didn't seem the least bit tired. 'Maybe she got tired while helping with Leanna's wedding because of her lack of experience. Jen kept thinking to herself the entire time.
The day for the photo shoot had arrived, and they both had to go to the studio early. Jen wanted to have fun with it, so she went a bit crazy when she was picking out the different themes she wanted, not expecting how tiring it was going to be for her.
Lucas watched as she packed her own makeup after getting dressed. She didn't bother putting any on since they were going to remove it afterwards anyway. Fortunately, she woke up feeling good that morning, which relieved Lucas's worries.
The two of them were picked up by a van that was arranged by the wedding planning agency and was taken to the studio. It was a short and comfortable drive and because of the type of client they were; they reserved the whole building for the two of them.
Jen marvelled at how someone could invest so heavily in a photography studio. But she was not complaining, wasn't she benefitting from it now?
The photographer's assistant was already waiting for them once they arrived and showed them inside. After briefly discussing with them what they were going to start with, the makeup artists and hairstylists took Jen away and Lucas was also taken to another room.
Lucas was surprised when he was taken to a makeup room to get his makeup done as well. He was asked to change into a robe and before he knew it, there was a lady who was cleaning his face. He frowned as he looked at the assistant that was standing to the side through the reflection on the mirror.
"Why do I have to do this?" Lucas asked, his voice sounding a bit annoyed after he closed his eyes so he could get his eyes done.
"Your skin will look washed out under the lights. You also need to fit in with the theme you are going to take part in," the man hastily explained, and was glad when Lucas did not ask any more questions. He has received male clients who would make things especially difficult. He didn't know that Lucas did not make things hard for him because he did not want to ruin this for Jen.
Since he was a man, Lucas's makeup did not take too long. After getting his hair done, he was taken to the dressing room to get dressed. After he was done, he went to meet the photographer as they waited for Jen to finish. The normally ill-tempered photographer was chatting with Lucas with a big smile on his face. It was to the extent where the other staff was surprised at the sight.
Lucas was talking to him about his work and his curiosity left the photographer with a very good impression. Even though he was a renowned photograph, the photos were bound to look better if he was in a good mood. Lucas was also hoping he wouldn't become too impatient and stress out his woman in the process.
They didn't get to chat for too long before Jen walked out of the dressing room she was using. She looked so stunning that all of Lucas's attention was drawn to her.
When the photographer saw Lucas's stunned expression and Jen's shy one, he felt regret for not being able to take a photo since he didn't have his equipment with him at the moment.
"Hold on to that feeling, don't even talk to each other! Let's go," the photographer said and rushed the startled couple to the studio where they were going to do the shoot. His assistant had also taken Jen to the back of the set.
After everything was arranged and everyone was in position, the photographer started taking pictures of Lucas, whose face showed anticipation, since Jen had been taken away and he wanted to look at her properly.
When Jen was finally told to walk in, the camera flashes did not stop. The photographer was already running around to catch the couple from different angles and perspectives. His assistant didn't even know what had gotten into his boss. He had never seen him so enthusiastic about anything in such a long time.
The photographer was happy to have the opportunity to capture such raw feelings from the couple because, for most of the couples he had worked with, after the tiring process of wedding preparations, the last thing on their minds was romance, but it was very different for the two people in front of him. If the couple were aware of the photographers thought process, they would go thank their mothers, since they had chosen to shoulder most of the burden.
Since he was not stopped, Lucas walked towards Jen and took her hand. Not only was her make-up beautiful, but the dress she was wearing also had a long slit all the way up to her thigh. Her fair leg would teasingly make an appearance, enticing him relentlessly.
"You look gorgeous," Lucas said as he placed his hand on her waist and pulled her towards him. The photographer was happy that the couple did not even need instruction, their actions alone were already telling the story that he had intended to tell. Jen could only respond with shyness and lightly hit his shoulder.
Lucas pretty much ignored all the staff that was around for the photoshoot and just went crazy with how good Jen looked. He cooperated well with the photographer and because of this, Jen was also at ease and was cooperating wholeheartedly.
Lucas would always look pleasantly surprised whenever Jen changed her outfits to the point that the photographer was thinking about making a collage of his consistent expression.
The themes for the shoot kept changing, from sexy, innocent, youthful, daring, bold. The initiator in the shoot also kept changing, making it very exciting. Jen was forced to show sides of her Lucas had never seen before and vice versa. It was to the point that Lucas became even more curious about her and wanted some time alone.
At some point, he realised that Jen was really good at push and pull that he would always find himself seduced, even when the other party did not have those intentions. At some point, the photographer would ask them to kiss and when they had to stop, Jen would keep it up for about two to three seconds before pulling back and looking away shyly. She had succeeded in making him speechless multiple times in just a few moments.
At some point, Lucas was vowing to seduce her as well once they were done with the shoot. He was so wound up that he went the extra mile when he was doing things he was asked to do.
The photographer would ask him to pin her against the wall, but he would end up being so close to her that his lips would teasingly rub against her cheeks. Fortunately, the photographer got even more satisfied and did not scold him. It felt like time was going on for forever.
