Amanda & Don: Washington, DC Engagement Portraits

Amanda initially contacted me through a mutual friend of hers and mine for wedding photography. Unfortunately we weren’t able to team up for her wedding because she’s 3+ hours from Morgantown, WV and I’m trying to limit my travel jobs as much as possible so I can spend time with my family. But we were able to team up for her engagement pictures! After a day of sight-seeing in the city, she and Don met up with me for a session along the Tidal Basin in Washington, DC. After shooting another couple immediately before them, I knew exactly where the good photo spots were, including some beautiful pink blooms (despite the lackluster leftover cherry blossoms).

Favorite part of their session: Don confessing to me halfway through that “this is actually fun!” I love it when I can get the guy on board and having a good time. 🙂 Enjoy my faves from their beautiful session!

Some of the very first shots of the session! After these, I knew it would be a HUGE success with these two! 🙂

Amanda suggested the fence…love it…and that glowing light!!!

The next set of four are some of my favorite engagement portraits of all time. There’s just something so beautiful and peaceful about them…

I think this is my favorite from the entire session!

Amanda wanted to show off their fun side so they threw around what little was left of the fallen blossoms…

And now for the GORGEOUS blooms that just about saved the day! So glad I spotted these!

Amanda and Don surprised me with their awesome engagement session skills and I think they surprised themselves, too. Even though I’m unable to shoot their wedding, I’m glad they got some practice before their big day. I got the sense that they now feel way more comfortable about stepping in front of a camera, which will translate so well in their wedding pictures…when the pictures matter times a hundred! Just a little something for all those engaged couples to consider. 🙂 Don’t you want to look as fabulous as Amanda and Don!?!

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!

"Jessica is amazing!"

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."
