get to know ME more!
Hi Thank you so much for visiting the blog! Whether you're looking for more pretty pictures, inspiration for your wedding day, or some useful Deep Creek info, I hope you'll find a comfy seat, maybe a cup of coffee, and read on!
Nicole and Justin’s wedding at Chanteclaire Farm is quickly approaching. In less than two months, these two will be tying the knot at one of the prettiest venues around and I can’t help but think of how awesome their engagement session was…and how that means things are going to be even better on their wedding day. Yay! 🙂
As you look through Nicole and Justin’s engagement pictures, you’ll likely notice how cute and snuggly and seemingly comfortable they are, even in front of the camera. And that’s because these two are legit. They ARE cute and snuggly and comfortable with each other, and their pictures EXUDE that! They were beyond easy to photograph and getting to know them was such a delight. From our time in the forest at Swallow Falls State Park to our frolics in the roadside field of yellow flowers, I so very much loved this session…and all the pictures that came from it.Â
These two are simply going to rock it on their wedding day in June and I am so excited to be there to capture it all!
P.S. Garrett County and the Deep Creek Lake area offer such amazing photo backdrops! (You can actually read more about this in a blog post I did for The Deep Creek Wedding. Check it!) So lucky to live where I do and have the clients that I have! 🙂Â
When I think of Nicole and Justin’s engagement session, this picture immediately comes to mind. They’re so great together! 🙂
Nicole and those eyes!!!
A definite favorite from the session. 🙂Â
And how about this series!?! They seriously are legit, people. This is all genuine interaction between these two…and I’m so glad I captured it!
Thankful that Nicole’s mom tagged along to help with the dogs. She was tempting with some treats over my shoulder so we could capture this…
So much sun that evening!!
During one of my many car rides with Natalie (she did a lot of napping in the car last year as a baby since I was on the road five days a week driving 25 minutes one way to take Ally to school), I found this roadside field of flowers! I just KNEW I had to use it for a session and Nicole and Justin’s engagement pictures were the perfect excuse. And the fact that we had sunshine that evening? BONUS!Â
Oh man, let the cuteness and snuggles (and beautiful YELLOW color!!) overload commence…
One of my favorite engagement portraits of all time!!! 🙂
Nicole and Justin, you guys were just awesome sauce! Thanks for being awesome, and thanks so much for inviting me to be a part of your wedding this year! I am PUMPED to see you guys again…soon!!!Â
Day 14 of Starting Something New.
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!
