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!
Yesterday I shared film scans from some of my first rolls of film. Today, I’m still sharing some of those first rolls, but this post is all about weddings in film! Exciting! 🙂
I haven’t experimented with film at every single wedding because I don’t want to overwhelm myself…working two cameras and two flashes on my own is hard enough sometimes! But as I continue to improve and feel more comfortable, I’ll be excited to offer it to most clients as an added bonus.
The first wedding in film was Genesis and Daniel’s downtown Morgantown affair. I saved most of my roll for their outdoor rooftop reception because I knew it would be pretty film-appropriate.
I love this shot! A wonderful image to cap off their wedding day. 🙂
Then there was Rachel and David’s Maine destination-ish wedding! Rachel told me a while back that she loved the look of film, so I promised I’d shoot a little at her wedding. This was my first black and white roll…
So the images aren’t perfect, but they’re different and classic…and that’s something unique that I’m hoping to offer to all my clients in the future. Until then, I’ll keep practicing…and maybe upgrade to a better, more professional film camera. 😉
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…
- 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 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!
