Joel: Newborn Portraits, Bridgewater VA Photographer

Joel is the newest member of the Fike family! He was born on February 22nd weighing in at 5 pounds 14 ounces. He’s Jason and Heather’s first child and he’s mine and Brian’s first nephew. He and our Jack are only three weeks apart, which makes the two of them a little extra special.

I traveled down to Virginia last Friday to photograph Joel, Jason and Heather in the comfort of their home. It was nice to hang out with them for a couple of hours without being interrupted by my own kiddos. Joel is such a sweet, little guy and I’m excited to watch he and Jack “grow up together” over the next few years. It’s going to be fun having three kiddos running around at our family gatherings. 🙂

We took a quick break so Joel could settle down and sleep…so Ally, Pam and Jeff (proud grandparents) all visited so we could see Jack and Joel together for the first time…

Ally is definitely going to be “mother hen” to these two boys. 🙂

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."
