The other day, I got a phone call from a friend of mine who asked me if I would do a Pin-Up Girl style photo shoot for her. She wanted to give the photos to her fiance for Valentine's Day. I agreed, and thought it would be a totally fun shoot. I was really excited, and so I decided to tell BF all about it. While I was going on and on about posing and props, he was acting really funny...
He basically was trying to talk me out of it, "Don't you think that's a conflict of interest?" or "Are you sure this is something you want to do?" "I just don't feel comfortable with this."
I couldn't figure out why he was being so weird about it. I guessed it was because these kinds of shoots can be a little risque, but my friend already assured me that she was not interested in being nude, and all "important parts" would be fully covered at all times. I couldn't help but love BF a little more for looking out for my Eternal Salvation... He doesn't want me to become addicted to pornography, I thought, as my heart felt a little warmer.
...
This afternoon BF called me and sounded a little embarrassed and irritated. He has remained close friends with a girl he dated years ago - no worries, I'm not jealous, I actually really like her and we have become good friends! Anyway, this girl had called him for something and while on the phone he asked her, "so what's the deal with this Pin-Up photo shoot you're doing with Morgan?"
She questioned him and questioned him, swearing she had no clue what he was talking about, until he finally admitted, "I guess I'm an idiot." {<< at least he can admit it.} When he called me, he asked why I lied about the photo shoot I was doing. The truth is, these two girls have names that are very unique, and sound very similar. Spelling-wise there is only an -NE at the end of one of their names, so when I told him my friend's name, he assumed it was our friend. Poor BF. He thought it would be uncomfortable for me to take risque photos of his ex-girlfriend, so he put up a fight.
Truth be told, I think he's a little jealous that some lucky guy is getting nudie-photos for Valentine's Day, and he is not!
I love the idea. If all goes well you should consider adding the option to bridal packages. I know a lot of girls who have given "sexy" photos to their husbands as wedding gifts.
