Meet Jessica!

Her Facebook page reminds us, “Being happy doesn't mean everything is perfect. It means you've decided to see beyond the imperfections." An afternoon photo shoot with Jessica proves that she believes this to be true.

Partly cloudy. Scattered thunderstorms. (Lightening on the horizon.) Heat index readings 100 to 105. Feather-light beach ball props racing to freedom. Thorny hitchhikers (the kind that draw blood) grabbing her ankles. Overzealous skirts flying waist-high in the breeze.

Alas, the perfection of imperfection!
