I've liked him for months and last week, he'd given me his number. But not for the reason you think. He's a photographer and wants to shoot me. He wants to meet me next weekend for coffee so we can get to know each other before we work together. The thing is he's 39. I'm 21. (turning 22 in 2 weeks) He's single and so am I. He's really nice and doesn't come off as sleazy. He's a legit photographer. I've seen his portfolio. He has his own website. Is the age gap an issue? 18 years is quite a lot to most people. And I don't know if this is a date or strictly about business? I want it to be a date but him I'm not so sure about. Help?

I would not worry about the age gap as you are both over 21...
I know you would like it to be a romantic date but since you are not sure, wait and see how it goes...

The age gap shouldn't be an issue to anyone but yourself, you're both consenting adults and whatever else goes on is nobody else's business but your own.
The fact that he gave you a reason for meeting on business could either mean he just genuinely wants to do some photography with you OR hes using it as a way to break the ice without being too forward.
Since you don't know what the intention of this meeting is i'd suggest taking the relaxed approach, go into this thinking professionally so your hopes aren't up for something that may or may not happen.
Good luck! :)
