JFP Five Days of Giveaways: Day Two

It’s day two of JFP’s Five Days of Giveaways! Yesterday, I gave away a seat to my “Cabin Fever” Photog Q&A. If you missed those details, check out the blog post here! We did reach 25 blog post comments so Miss Stacie Shifflett was randomly chosen as the winner and she was emailed this morning! Today, I’ve got something for JFP clients…past, present and future!

A $50 JFP credit!

This can be used on just about anything in the JFP “store”. Portrait session, prints, albums, books, canvases…anything that you plan to purchase in the future! The only thing it can’t be applied to are things already paid for.

So to enter, comment on this blog post (only one per person, please!) before midnight tonight. If we hit 25 comments, I’ll choose a winner at random tomorrow morning! If I don’t hit 25 comments, no winner will be chosen, so help increase those chances by sharing this blog post on your Facebook wall, Twitter, Instagram or email it to friends and family.

And to continue with the holiday cheer that I shared in yesterday’s blog post (beautiful snowy portraits with a red coat!), here’s some recent pictures I took of two of my beautiful friends, their little girls and their baby bumps…

Sara and Vivienne were up first! We used to live just five minutes from them in Morgantown, so we’re a little sad we’re not as close anymore. But they were willing to make a trip to Maryland to see us and have offered to come back again soon. So thankful for the good friends we found while in Morgantown. 🙂

Sara is due in May with baby #2! They were told that baby was a boy last month, but are getting reassurance with another look tomorrow. Can’t wait to see if their little family will be just like ours with a big sister and little brother…

Now for Joanna and Galilee! Miss Joanna is due on January 4th, so she’s only got a few weeks left and I cannot wait to hear of the new baby’s arrival! Joanna doesn’t know whether baby is a boy or girl, but her husband Tim does. I don’t know how he’s been able to keep the secret for so long!

I think little Miss Galilee is going to be such a sweet big sister…

Time for a picture of the three girls! We hung out with Sara, Vivienne, Joanna, Galilee (and Ashley and Jackson…we missed you guys during the play date!) all summer long. Between swimming, meeting at local parks and just hanging out at each other’s houses, we tried to meet every week….and became very good friends. 🙂

Sara snapped a few of Ally and I, too. Ally was a little harder to tame during pictures, but at least we got a few…

After pictures, the girls decorated Christmas cookies! Perfect way to end our play date. Thanks for coming to Maryland, ladies!

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…

Scroll through some favorite blog posts!

- Dani

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!

"Jessica is amazing!"

- Jessica and brandon

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!

" the best decision."

Big Fun
