get to know ME more!
Hi Thank you so much for visiting the blog! Whether you're looking for more pretty pictures, inspiration for your wedding day, or some useful Deep Creek info, I hope you'll find a comfy seat, maybe a cup of coffee, and read on!
Whew! What a whirlwind the past five days have been. Brian and I dropped Ally off with my parents on Wednesday evening, stayed with my best friend Jaclyn near the ‘burgh, got up at 3am for our flight to the Bahamas, spent four days in paradise with Renae, Josh and their families, flew home all day yesterday, got to bed at 2am and were up at 8am for work this morning! We’re tried, but man, what a trip…and opportunity of a lifetime!
This past winter, Renae and Josh contacted me about photographing their wedding in the Bahamas and I saw it as an exciting, once-in-a-lifetime treat…and such a big compliment to my work (thanks Renae and Josh)! Shooting a wedding in the Bahamas with white sand, blue waters and palm trees!?! A dream come true!
While I have way more to share about our trip to the Bahamas including the pre-wedding snorkeling adventure, eating $25 bologna sandwiches and getting to shoot at sunset on one of the prettiest beaches in the world, I’m only going to share a sneak peek for now. AND because I haven’t shared a baby bump picture on the blog yet, and because my baby bump was dressed all pretty for the Bahama wedding on Saturday, I thought I’d share that as well… 🙂
First up, my Bahamian baby bump! 23 weeks and growing!
And the real reason we’re here, a sneak peek of the beautiful Bahamian wedding of Renae and Josh…
Pretty awesome, right?? I’ll be sure to get this full blog post done as soon as I physically can! Until then, it’s back to portrait sessions, editing my September weddings and house progression (cabinets will be installed this week and the fireplace will be complete!). Yay for lots of exciting things going on with the business and life!
Scenes and thoughts from deep creek
Well hey now! I thought for sure it had been more than seven months since I blogged last! Wish I could do it more…and plan to as soon as the new JFP website comes out.
I’m not sure I’m starting anything consistent here, just sharing some random thoughts and scenes from Deep Creek on this random Wednesday…

Jessica is amazing and she made us feel so comfortable! Having her capture our wedding was like having my best friend with me for every moment! Jessica's photos are fun, whimsical, and sophisticated!
We are not a stoic couple and did not want posed (or trying-too-hard) photos! Jessica was able to capture our personalities and the elegance of the day! I can't stop looking at our photos!

The best decision I could have made for my wedding was hiring Jessica Fike as a photographer! I was in a wedding prior that she was a photographer for and seeing how organized and easy and strategic she was to work with is what convinced me! She makes you feel so comfortable and helps teach you how to pose and smile and look so natural! She keeps you on schedule throughout your day and captures so much emotion in her photos. She is worth every penny plus more!
