Since having Jack home and wanting to take as many pretty portraits of he and Ally as possible, I’ve discovered that it’s easier to photograph other people’s kids…at least right now, in my opinion. For some reason, the elements never seem to completely come together every time I attempt a little “session” with my kiddos. And it’s quite frustrating! I have the equipment, the know-how and the subjects with me at all times. Shouldn’t this be a breeze? I guess I’ll get better with time and continued sessions. Or maybe I’ll just learn to accept the imperfectness. 🙂 Hopefully Ally and Jack will be willing to smile for me for years to come!
Here are their first official portraits together as brother and sister! Happy Valentine’s Day everyone!
Sunlight was streaking through the windows at inconvenient places and Jack was on the verge of waking up for a feeding and diaper change. It was a challenging session…
But I think we captured some good portraits! 🙂
This is definitely a favorite! An appropriate face for a little boy being smooched on by a girl. 🙂
The “not-so-sure” smile!
After a few minutes of annoying, streaking sunlight, we switched blankets and places in the living room…
Ally had no problem ignoring the camera and grabbing an occasional sweetheart to eat. She loves sweets!
Those are my two kiddos, friends! You know I’ll be taking pictures galore of these two little ones over the next year, so make sure you come back to see more…and to watch them continue to grow! Enjoy this day of love! 🙂
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!

As an artist, I know you are always the hardest in the crtiques of your own work! The shots are fantastic-my fave is the kiss with jack’s squishy face!
Wait uintil Jack grows up and sees this bow tie.
