I met up with Kassandra and Forrest at the site of their future home for a couples session at the end of October. The beautiful, colorful leaves may have been dwindling away, but the art of photographing these two young lovebirds on the land where they will soon be sharing a home was beautiful enough for me.
How neat to have pictures on your land before your home is actually built! I can just imagine the pictures hanging on Kassandra and Forrest’s living room and bedroom walls and being shared with friends and family as they visit. What a unique way to remember the beginning of such a special journey as husband and wife! Maybe my husband will agree to do this on our new land!?! 🙂
Kassandra is a photographer, so naturally I was a little nervous during the session. I didn’t want her to think I was doing a bad job or that I was a little crazy…ha! I did share a few tips and tricks with her along the way, to help ease my nervousness and be an advocate for the super willing, super helpful photography industry. 🙂
Warning: this is a BIG post peeps! Such a beautiful session!!
I have so many black and white favorites from their session…
Session FAVE for sure!!!!
This next series makes some of my all-time favorite couples portraits. And to top it off, they’re lying where their home will be someday soon! Soooo cool, right!?!
Kassandra, you look soooo beautiful in this one!
I couldn’t get enough of that bright yellow tree!
Kassandra’s got a beautiful smile and a killer model look! I love girls that can do both so comfortably and so well!
I love little pops of color in session outfits, especially in accessories and shoes!
Just in time to capture the beautiful setting sun…

Another favorite! So sweet and so cute. 🙂
I believe this will be part of their front yard!
Just hanging out on their future road. 🙂
One final session fave for me!! 🙂
Kassandra and Forrest, thanks so much for sharing your land with me. I love that you wanted to do your session where your future home will be built and I hope you see these pictures as special as I see them for you. Let me know if you want some updated pictures once your home is built and ready to go! Thanks again and good luck with everything as you continue this new and exciting journey together!
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!
