I had graduated from high school and had been mostly lounging around my parents house and at the pool when one of my friends, Erin, talked me into going to this photo shoot with her. She had gone once before to this studio out near the beach which was a little over an hour away.
Erin picked me up the morning she had made the appointments for us and told me how it was easy money and how professional she thought they had been.
I remember being shocked that she had not only tried it but that she was sharing it with me and almost begging me to go with her. She had told me to bring a bikini and my drivers license and can even remember the jean shorts and tank top I was wearing.
There were butterflies in my stomach when she drove to this large industrial looking building a few blocks from the main strip. She walked in and was talking to this tall blonde behind a desk who was honestly so friendly and welcoming it took me off guard. She looked at me when I signed the forms and asked if I was there to make money like Erin today and told me I would be perfect before I could even answer.
The tall receptionist took us through a long hallway down a maze of rooms before we took an elevator up and led us to what they were using as a dressing room.
She was telling Erin she was doing the job interview and ended up picking out this tight black skirt and almost see through blouse for her. I halfway heard it when she remarked that someone named Juan would be here in a second so we could party but at the time was distracted by my friend undressing.
This shorter Latin man with what hair he had left on his head slicked back and never in my life forget watching Erin smoke out of this glass pipe standing there in that skirt and her bra. She was giggling and smiling as she exhaled and called me by my name to come over to her.
Juan was smiling when she convinced me to just try it and remember how suddenly it hit me. I didn't feel like this was wrong or dirty anymore and wasn't worried about how I'd look or even how small my chest was. I felt so full of energy and electric, so brave and confident...like I was a grown woman and knew exactly what I was doing.
That lady was asking me if I was just going to take photos or try filming? Would I be in lingerie and bathing suits or was I interested in more money and trying nudes?
I'm not sure how many times I hit that glass pipe before I was letting Juan lead me down the hall and was asking if it would be ok if he stayed in there for my session. He was walking right beside me and added he could keep me high during it if I let him watch. There was this huge white sheet hung up against the rear wall with a chair and futon in front of so many lights and 3 large cameras on tripods.
Juan was holding the lighter for me when this older thin man with a ponytail walked in with two younger men. He was complimenting me on how I looked almost the same time he was directing the others to get the cameras ready. Before I could think I was standing in front of those lights with the cameras pointed at me and everyone looking at me.
The older man was asking me my name and age, getting me to smile and telling me to relax. After I'd turned around and bent over he asked me to take off my tank top and cursed when I hesitated. He said something to the effect to Juan about making sure I wasn't wasting his time then turned and asked if I wanted to make some money or what.
Juan was there next to me telling me he was going to give me a big hit and asking if I really wanted this or not, that it was fine to back out and not to get intimidated by the director getting loud. By the time he'd given me the second huge hit I knew I wanted to at least be brave enough to try it. When I was back in front of everyone I heard him make some sarcastic remark if I was ready this time and I just pulled that tank top over my head. I didn't flinch or slow down when he told me to remove my bra next.
I'm 5'4'' and weighed maybe 105 then, I was in good shape and had muscle tone but was petite and only an A cup. I knew I was blushing when he told me how nice they were and to not by shy and show them my 'little titties'.
