I love when people contact me early for pictures during a busy season! Between fall and now Christmas of this year, I’ve had to turn away a lot of people because of my full calendar and their being late in contacting me. I know not everyone thinks about fall portraits over the summer and Christmas pictures in November, but for those of you who may be on the hunt for such pictures in the future, do keep in mind that fall and Christmas are some of the busiest times for photographers. Getting in touch early is definitely recommended!
Kathryn is one of those ladies that got in touch early. I didn’t have a ton of weekend options for the fall when she contacted me, but we were still able to schedule a session and catch the tail end of the season’s colors.
I met Kathryn and her little family at the beautiful Valley Falls State Park in Fairmont, WV. The falls, the tall trees, the rock formations…it’s such a beautiful place! And I had a beautiful family to work with…two smiley little girls and two patient and friendly parents. Rumor has it that some of these may be on Kathryn’s Christmas card. 🙂
So glad we captured all these smiles at once! 🙂
Sister time between Felicity and Allina…
And now some solo time for Miss Allina! She did so wonderfully during the session!
Accidental portrait between daddy and daughter!!
A few more shots of Allina while mom and dad tended to Felicity…
Time for some baby cuteness!!
Love this sister moment. 🙂
Thanks for a super easy session you guys! I hope you enjoyed your day away from home and I hope you have a wonderful Christmas! It was so nice to meet you…maybe we’ll get together again in the future for more pictures!?! 🙂
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!
