The Second Career(closed)

[cnuveau]

Steve walked out his office building then looked back at it as the realization that it was no longer his hit him harder than he imagined it would. After 7 years he’d managed to go from hacking away in his dark apartment to running a successful software company with hundreds of employees.

Now, after being made an offer he couldn’t refuse it was no longer his. Though he was happy to be free of the burden of leadership, his work had defined him for so long he wasn’t quite sure who he was without it.

The first week after the sale of the company Steve just relaxed and unwound but it was becoming clear that he’d need to find something to occupy his time.

“I’m definitely going to need to find something to do sooner rather than later.” He said to his wife as they laid by the pool soaking in the evening sun.

 

[Gamina]

"You should indeed."

Stephanie said to her husband. It wasn't that she disliked having her husband home with her was a bad thing, but going from having to claw out time together because of how driven he was at work, and now having to claw out personal time, now that he was home all the time, was quite jarring.

Part of the issue was also that she had fallen for his relentless drive and seeing how aimless he was at the moment didn't really sit well with him. Their cellphones buzzed at the ring camera was triggered by a delivery man.

"Honey do you mind taking the package?"

She said pointing at herself to make clear she did not feel like drying off and throwing something on to open the door. She also knew that since it was the package she had bought for him, he could aswel sign for it. She had bought him a Sony Alpha A9 with several extra lenses and all the needed and unnecessary nicknacks that came with it.

 

[cnuveau]

“Sure.” Steve grumbled as he pushed up from his lounge and went inside.

Steve opened the door and signed for the package, puzzled that it was addressed to him. Stephanie had normally done all the online shopping so he was used to shuttling packages into the house on a daily basis but they were always addressed to her.

Closing the door behind him he returned with the package in hand and held it up.

“Somebody must have sent me a retirement gift.” He said before setting it on the patio table and opening it.

“Woah! Nice!” He said excitedly as he got to the camera packaging then opened it to remove the camera body.

“Did you get this for me?” He asked as he attached a lens then slid the battery into the bay seeing it come to life.

 

[Gamina]

Steph smiled as she saw Steve unpack his gift. Seeing how happy he reacted to it, she knew she had picked the right one.

"Yeah, your dad helped me pick a model but it is indeed my retirement gift to you honey."

She said, while she had never really known him to have a hobby, his parents had often told her about how he and his dad would go on hikes and spend hours waiting on the perfect shot.

She figured that this would be as good of a starting point for him, than any hobby a middle aged men could hope for.

 

[cnuveau]

“Thanks babe! This is amazing!” He said as he leveled the lens at her then lightly pressed the shutter button causing it to focus before fully depressing it to take her picture.

“Used to love photography. Taking the perfect shot, working in the dark room to develop them. The whole process.” He said before taking another shot of her. “Guess I can pick it up again.” He added with a shrug.

Steve looked over the camera again, turning it over and over looking at all the features then flipped through the pictures he taken on the display.

“Just amazing.” He said lifting it back to his eye and pointing it at Steph again. “Lower your top for me. Gotta break it in right!”

Steve knew the likelihood she would was low but he was going to give it a shot anyway.

 

[Gamina]

Smiling as he talked about the whole process, she was struck about how deeply this man always took things. Off course he was not just going to snap some pics, but he would find ways to complicate the process, and from there improve it.

She cocked her eyebrow as he jokingly asked her to lower her top. While not out of character for him, it was a little disappointing that the first thing he wanted to shoot was her tits. The thinking about it, she reached back and started to unhook her top, the just before dropping it, she turns around and went to lay on her front, showing idd her back to him.

 

[cnuveau]

Steve’s tongue flicked across his lips in anticipation as Steph reached behind her back. He focused in then groaned when he realized he’d been had.

“Booo!” He jeered before snapping a picture of her ass then setting the camera down.

For the next couple of hours he poured through the manual becoming familiar with all the features and functions of the camera.

Later at dinner he looked over at Steph as an idea hit him.

“Would you want to do a modeling shoot with me? Give me a chance to get used to things and really try it out?” He asked hopeful she’d agree.

 

[Gamina]

Steph chuckled at the boo, half expected Steve to point out that she was sunbathing nude every other day, but she still felt there was a difference in doing so in the privacy of their yard and putting it on film.

But as she turned around, she could see that he was already deep into the manuals. Knowing he would be going down the rabbit hole for the next couple of hours, she tapped her earbud and listened to some relaxing music.

Later at dinner, her husband surprised her again asking her to model for him. "Oh I am wildlife now?" She joked as all the stories of him and his dad were about shooting animals in the wild. But knowing he was genuine in his request she followed it up with.

"Sure, what did you have in mind?"

Knowing that if you could count on anything, wad that Steve had plans for everything

 

[cnuveau]

“Wildlife photography is great but I feel I’ve been there, don’t that.” He said before taking a sip of his wine. “Besides, when I have such beauty right here it seems like it would be a waste to overlook it.”

Steve thought for a moment as he chewed another bite of food.

“I don’t really know honestly.” He admitted. “Maybe something around the pool. You in like a flowing coverup or sundress. Trying to capture the late afternoon sunlight reflecting off the water with you. It’s a place to start.”

As he thought about it, the possibilities for places and ways he wanted to shoot her seemed endless and the thought of it really started to take hold in him.

 

[Gamina]

"Hmmm..."

Listening to him talk she could see the vibe he was going for and having seen plenty of those on social media she nodded along.

"Well that does sound fun, and I have plenty of sundresses that would work for it."

Then giving him a stern look she added,

"But no sharing pictures without my explicit approval"

While she didn't really worry that Steve would share pictures with strangers, like their friend Thomas had done with snaps of his wife, which had killed the relationship, she still worried about too many people seeing her.

 

[cnuveau]

“No of course not, although eventually I can see wanting to share something. Hell you never know, maybe I can make it my second career and be able to sell some.” He said musing on the possibility of making a go of it. “Regardless, it will always be with your permission of course.”

Steve picked at his food some more as he mulled over the prospect of actually becoming a photographer. He certainly had the means not to do as he wished and it’s not like trying required a large outlay of capital.

“There’s still plenty of evening sun if you feel up to it after dinner.” He said nodding towards the French doors that the sun was beaming through.

 

[Gamina]

Steve's remark about taking it up to as a second career, she smiled and shook her head.

"Sure, we can try, but if you want to start a business I guess we will have to hire you some models then."

She said not thinking she would ever be comfortable enough to have strangers hang up pictures of her to their wall. Due to their situation many people thought she was some bimbo trophy wife, but mostly because she was introverted and unaware the two of them met in college, way before Steve had a dime to his name.

After dinner she excused herself and went digging in her closet finding two dresses that would work with what he had in mind. She rejected the First one because it needed to be matched with something more or she would basicly be nude for this shoot. So slipping on the Second option, she hurried down as the light was starting to dim fast

 

[cnuveau]

“I think you sell yourself short.” Steve said, knowing Steph could absolutely pass as a model. “We’ll hold off on models until we find out if I’m any good though.”

Steve looked over the dress she’d selected when she came out and it was perfect. It seemed thin enough to get some of the shots he’d envisioned but he also knew he had one that was far more sheer. Not that he wanted it to necessarily be revealing but the more it was, the more dramatic he thought the shot might be. Both seemed to do the trick.

“That’s gorgeous.” He said, following her out the back door with his camera in hand.

He took a few shots of her in various poses, making the most of the light they had left.

“Now turn towards the sun for me.” He instructed as he moved between her and the setting sun. “And widen your feet for me just a little.”

 

[Gamina]

Steph enjoyed being told what to do by her husband as he had a very good idea of what he wanted, and he always had the ability to put it into words that were easy to follow for others, even if they had no idea what they were doing.

As the light was dying out, she turned towards the son without thinking about it. It was only when he asked her to move her feet apart a little, she understood, what he wanted. Biting her lip she cursed that she had not bothered with panties, as they would stand out more in regular pictures, than not wearing any, until now that is.

But since they had have a lot of fun, she figured it couldn't hurt to do as was requested, after all this was between the two of them

 

[cnuveau]

Steven’s breath caught in his throat as she parted her feet a little more and a clear profile of her folds came into view. It was far more than he’d ever hoped for and he snapped away making sure he got the best shot.

“God that’s so beautiful!” He said as he zoomed in a little and got some that were less artistic than Steph would probably like.

“Now reach to your sides and act like your pulling skirt up. Not enough to expose anything. You’re just giving the hint that you’re going to.” He said hoping she could visualize what he was asking for.

 

[Gamina]

Steph was feeling a deep blush spread from her chest to her cheeks as Steve asked her to act as if she was going to expose herself even more. Luckily the light was low enough for it to probably not get picked up on the photograph.

For a second she thought about saying no, but he had said act like not pull your skirt up, so she felt it might be silly to fight him over it. So slowly pushing her left hand down her thigh, she took a handful of the fabric in her fist and slowly pulled it upwards a little as she gave him her best bedroom eyes over the shoulder.

Then after several pictures were taken, she dropped the skirt down and walked over to him to see the results

 

[cnuveau]

Steve was elated when she did as he asked and the results were everything he’d hoped for.

“These are going to be amazing!” He said as she crossed the patio back to him. “Let’s go inside and pull them up on my laptop.”

Back at the dining room table he plugged in the USB cable and pulled up he pictures, looking through them as Steph looked over her shoulder.

“I mean wow!” He said as the one showing the part of her folds came up and he turned the screen toward her to see her reaction.

 

[Gamina]

Getting back inside Steph rushes up to get some panties as the shoot had made her self conscious before joining Steve back in the dining room.

Looking over his shoulder she saw plenty of pictures that should end up straight in the bin, but was surprised that even without editing several of them looked really good.

As he explained his appreciation for one of the last few pics she tended to agree with him until her eyes caught the silhouette of her outer labia through the light and sheer material.

"Oh fuck no!"

She yelled wanting to demand him to delete it right here, right now, but the look on his face made her slow her roll.

"These do not leave your personal, protected devices..."

She said kind of into the idea her husband could use those to relieve himself

 

[cnuveau]

“No of course not!” He said, reassuring her. “You have to admit that’s hot as fuck though right?”

Steve couldn’t take his eyes off of it but then finally turned toward her and lifted his hand to tilt her lips to his.

“See, you make an amazing model!” He added before flipping through the rest of the images.

He took a few moments to select the best ones separating them into two folders, one marked private where he stored the ones that were for his eyes only.

 

[Gamina]

When Steve told her it w a s hot as fuck she didn't tend to directly disagree with him, as it did look like many photo's even if they were raw and edited, were already looking very well taken.

"It's still a bit weird to see myself like that."

She said feeling that the woman on the screen wasn't really her. Then seeing the one with the labia shadow she added.

"Might need to slow down on all the fucking we have been doing since you retired and see if I can tighten that up again."

She said knowing that was not how it worked at all, but since this shattered her idea she had a thight fresh pussy, she might aswel find a way to cope with it.

 

[cnuveau]

“Maybe seeing yourself like that isn’t such a bad thing.” Steve said knowing that she’d always been far more modest than she should be. After all, she had an amazing body and there was nothing wrong with acknowledging that.

“I’m not sure seeing that picture is going to help that cause a lot.” Steve admitted looking again at it then to her. “It kind of makes me want to wear it out a little more.”

Steve kissed her again then closed his laptop before leading her to bed.

The next morning Steve woke and looked over seeing the sheets pulled back from her naked body as she slept. They, definitely had been having more sex then usual since he retired but last night, for him, was something else. He was never short on desire for her but shooting her and seeing the results drove it to a new level.

He quietly slipped from the bed and went out to the kitchen to start some coffee, opening his laptop as he waited.

If he was going to try to make a go of photography he needed to find a place to showcase his work, get feedback and find like minded people to get advice from. He surf through a number of sites finding a few that seemed to fit the bill but knew he needed to get Steph’s approval before he ever considered posting anything.

 

[Gamina]

Waking up, Steph's head was still swimming from last night's fun. While her feelings were mixed on the modeling part of the evening, if Steve was going to vigorously fuck her like he did last night, she might just have to do more of it.

Slipping into her Running gear, she figures that if he was going to ask her to model more often she might as wel get as fit as she could be. Running down in the kitchen she pour herself a coffee and took the pot with her to give Steve a refill. Giving him a peck on the lips she told him she was out for a run and would be back in about an hour.

 

[cnuveau]

“Ok, sounds good.” Steve said, giving her a pat on the ass before she headed out the door.

When she left, his attention returned to finding the community he was looking for. Finally, he stumbled across one that looked more intriguing than the others. The sections for photographers seemed full of knowledgable people exchanging ideas. The areas where they showcased their work allowed for the posting of pics of various categories. He perused some of the work moving between landscapes, to action then finally to erotic photography.

Steve scrolled through some of the posted picks unable to ignore the fact that the ones he’d taken the day before were every bit as good as some of these. He clicked into the comment section of a few of them and was surprised to see how blunt and forward some of the comments were about the models and the picture.

Steve looked for a little while longer before getting up to take a shower leaving the browser open where he left off.

 

[Gamina]

Getting home from the run, Steph was completely knackered as she had gone full out, posting a new personal best, but this left her panting and sweating, desperate to get some electrolytes in her before getting in the shower.

Filling a glass with tap water and dropping in an electrolyte tasting cube in it, she stumbled upon the open laptop on the counter. Looking at the Picture on tge screen she was a bit miffed at seeing Steve was browsing for porn, but then quickly realised it was just research for his photography.

Looking at the blond woman on the screen she saw the artistry in the shot, but still felt slightly awkward knowing her husband was looking at such pictures of other women. Then scanning the comments she was again shocked by all the compliments , but also lewd comments demanding to see more, and she wondered how it would feel if she would read such things about herself.

Shaking the idea, she headed upstairs for a refreshing shower and some grooming knowing it might come in handy in the near future

 

[cnuveau]

Steve opened the bathroom door with the towel around his waist to find Steph just coming into the room.

"How was your run?" he asked.

Even covered in sweat and exhausted she still looked amazing. Looking through the site he'd found earlier he'd seen all sorts of incredible shots and every one he looked at, he imagined what she would look like in that pose. He knew she'd never go for any of that but that didn't stop him from imaging what it would look like if she did. He also wondered how she'd feel about him posting one or two of the less revealing photos to get feedback.
