House Update: Kitchen Install, Painted Walls and Hardwood Floors

Goodness. Life has been busy lately. I just finished two weddings and two engagement sessions in one weekend and while I’m not incredibly exhausted, my brain is exhausted thinking about everything that’s coming up next. I only have two weddings left for the season (yay!), but a ton of fall portrait sessions remain, as well as lots of HOUSE PROGRESS! Even though I’m excited to shoot in the beautiful colors of fall and meet new clients, I think I’m most excited about getting our house finished and officially moving in! Brian has been spending lots of time at the house lately (thanks, honey!) and he says there are still a million things left to do, but I can’t let that stand in the way of my excitement!

The most recent progress took place on the first floor. Brian and his friend have been installing our hardwood floors and our kitchen cabinets and appliances were installed last week! It’s so cool to finally see results from some of the big decisions we made…like the kitchen! Getting the right combo of hardwood floors and cabinets was very important to us. We wanted rustic and different, but not over the top…and I think we achieved that…especially with my red island. 🙂 I cannot wait to just cook and hang out in this space…

I think the red looks best from this angle. 🙂

 And now for the red door! It’s not completely finished, but I love seeing some color on the front of the house! And my bug is always a nice addition to the pictures, too. 🙂

Here’s the JFP office! A work-in-progress indeed…ZX0X1897

Brian was a sweetheart and ordered my first-choice doors. They weren’t his first choice, but he compromised and I’m so glad he did! I think they add some character…

There’s still lots of work to be done…siding has to be put on, stair railing needs installed, carpet is coming next week…and we need to clean everything!

But the hard work over the next few weeks is definitely going to be worth living here…

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."
