A Happily Married Couple Vs. Clumsy Phographer....The couple wins.

At a small college I was deemed 'The clumsiest' among my peers in 2002...What an award right?! I was hoping for Best Personality but that was obviously not coming to me.  I do understand where it stemmed from...reaching back ten years, I remember walking to a specific class with a Mr. Andrew Wilson (and I wonder if he actually remembers this), we were headed to class after chapel on my way to bible class, have no clue where he was headed but right behind me. I proceeded to grab a toe (obviously a flip flop gal) on the stem of my wide leg jeans...not expecting this at all, I lept up grabbing air and planted straight on the ground. I MEAN PLANTED, me and the pavement were extremely friendly at this time. Painful yes, but my pride hurt more, not to mention I tripped weeks before infront of half of the school during a coffee shop style concert trying not to spill coffee on a guitar case only to plop right into my own coffee spillage....that may have sealed the deal to get such an award(and I wonder if this was a one time award, I mean who awards 'clumsiest'?). Ten years later, I thought all of this clumsiness was behind me, but coffee has it's affects. Three cups in, I was pumped I mean PUMPED to do this photoshoot with these two fabulous folks, only to realize the Jessie of 2002 was back in full force.  Seeing old friends and having three cups of coffee prior may have prompted this but boy I was walking and telling them where to go and tripping all in the same breath... LOVE them, they didn't care and I am sure Andrew was all 'and Jessie hasn't changed' :)...Outside of all my clumsiness, these two were just the best! I had so much fun and they were so so easy going...by the way Andrea, you said 'I can be awkward in photos' I didn't find that at all, you were the opposite, such a beautiful person inside and out, and it shows...Andrew, yep keep on calling me clumsy :) Here is the first few I got my hands on...Have a great weekend all!!!
