I feel like I’ve known Jessica my whole life—like she is an old friend. But that’s not exactly the case—we’ve only known each other for about a year, and in that year, we’ve only met up in person 4 or 5 times. Jessica entered my “love song cover contest” last Valentines day on my blog and cracked me up immediately. She then came in to interview for my personal assistant position and, well the rest is history! When I met Adam, I felt equally as comfortable as I did with Jess the first time we met. They are just those kind of people who make you feel at home no matter what the situation. They are genuine sweethearts! I had to share this email from Jessica that she sent a year ago, because I think it’s a great proposal story. Especially the part where Adam faked a fall on the slopes. Classic! Check it out:
“Adam proposed when we were skiing at Mary Jane. We go up there a lot so it was the perfect setting, especially because it was a gorgeous, warm, blue sky day in the mountains. Not sure if you’re familiar with Mary Jane at all, but at the very top of the mountain there is an area called Parsons Bowl so we rode the lift up there with his cousin and cousin’s girlfriend who were in town from D.C. for the weekend. All of a sudden his cousin & cousin’s girlfriend said they were going to ditch us so they could race each other down the hill. I thought that was a little strange but was like whatever, I guess that’s what out-of-towners do when they come here to ski So Adam and I were skiing by ourselves and all of sudden he took a spill and was really slow to get up so I skied over to where he was and he was still on the snow grasping his knee in pain. I was really worried he might have torn something since he has bad knees to begin with! So I told him he should pop out of his skis and stretch a little to see if that would help. Well when he popped out of his skis, he also popped out the ring and proposed! I couldn’t believe it was happening then and there but was so excited and surprised that I said yes right away and we skied down to the bottom of the mountain and met up with his cousin and had some celebratory shots at the Cable Car!!! I couldn’t have asked for a better proposal, because not only was it a surprise but it was at one of our favorite places and doing one of our favorite activities…..”
Aren’t they adorable?! And their sweet little husky, Kiva wasn’t too bad, herself! We had a great time meandering around Jefferson park… it was a very easy and comfortable shoot–again, like I have known them for years! I’m very much looking forward to their wedding in June.
