“Hold that pose. Don’t move. That’s it. Look right at me. Don’t breath, move, blink.” Uncle held his camera and began clicking. The lights in his studio were out, just one spot on the lovely Lisha, his model. “You are beautiful. I love your eyes. That’s perfect. Just one more shot.”
Lisha sat down and took a deep breath. “Wow. That was intense. I’m wasted. I need to take a few minutes before our next set. Do you mind?”
Uncle was reloading his camera and without looking up said, “Sure. That’s a good idea. I need to get ready for our next set up. Put the leather outfit on and be back in here in about five minutes or so.”
Uncle turned on the studio lights. The next session with Lisha was going to be a masterpiece. She was the perfect model for what he had in mind. He opened the file cabinet next to a supply shelf and began pulling out the pieces he needed for the next shoot. He placed a leather strap on a stool, then removed the metal hooks from the cabinet. Next he unfolded a mask made of black silk.
