Yesterday’s blog post included a young lady that I played high school basketball with and today’s blog post includes a young lady that I played high school volleyball with…I definitely enjoyed the Geibel “reunions” a couple weeks ago during my first fall engagement sessions of the year. ๐
Caitlin and Bryce’s session was unlike any other I’ve ever done. Instead of shooting everything outdoors, we started indoors at The Vintage Room in downtown Morgantown. Caitlin and Bryce enjoy wine and collect bottles from their experiences together as a couple, so it was a very fitting setting. I reserved one of the private tasting rooms at the restaurant and bought them a bottle of wine to enjoy. It was a divine and delicious start to a beautiful engagement session!
Enjoy my faves from their session (and look for their wedding next July!)…
The Vintage Room’s wine selection is overwhelming! I have found my fave to be Jacob’s Creek Moscato! But then again, I’ve only tried ONE of their wines. I need to get out more. ๐
Time for wine! Definitely a great way to help calm the nerves while taking pictures. ๐
So picture-perfect, eh!?!
A little romance, a little vino…
We couldn’t stay indoors forever…there was some beautiful fall weather outside calling our names! This is one of my fave photo spots in Morgantown…
Aren’t they so super cute!?!
And back to the bridge. I just can’t get enough!
Love this next series…Caitlin knew how to work the camera for sure!!!
Love these, too! I need to use my 70-200 lens waayyy more! ๐
Caitlin’s Pinterest-inspired idea…
They fit perfectly in this tree. ๐
Caitlin and Bryce, what more can I say than YOU GUYS DID FABULOUS!!! Thanks so much for coming to Morgantown and for entertaining my idea of including some wine tasting into your session. I so very much enjoyed hanging out with you guys and I cannot wait for your July wedding so you can totally rock it in front of the camera again! Ahhhh you’re just so cute. ๐
Scenes and thoughts from deep creek

Iโm not sure Iโm starting anything consistent here, just sharing some random thoughts and scenes from Deep Creek on this random Wednesdayโฆ

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!

great job Jess! I could tell immediately when you switched to the 70-200, that lens is where it’s at ๐
Thanks, Court! I need to use the 70-200 more often!
Love love love this session! One of my favorite locations in Morgantown to shoot, and where we had our engagement photos done as well :). Also, so glad I invested in the 70-200 lens because it really does make a HUGE difference! Great photos!
Thanks, Adriane. I love the Hazel Ruby McQuain Park! And yes, the 70-200 is a worthy investment. ๐
