After rescheduling because of strong winds, Kristen and her little guy finally made their way to Maryland for my fourth “Mommy & Me” session. Kristen is a fellow MOPSter (so she got a special discount!) and I had only met her briefly a few weeks prior. In a group of 100+ moms, it’s hard to know everyone. But these sessions have allowed me to meet some new people and to gain some better friendships within my MOPS group. They’ve also allowed me to use my backyard for pictures, and boy am I loving our land choice more and more each day. 😉
Here’s Kristen and her one-year old guy Gabriel!
Oh the facial expressions of a one-year old. 🙂
I’m so glad we got so many smiles out of Gabriel! There was no one behind me encouraging these smiles…he did it all on his own (OK, maybe I enticed him a little 😉 ). 
More baby smiles! Good job, Gabriel!
Time for some solo shots of the main man!
That’s a stinker face right there!
Brian mowed a path between the yard and the woods…he’s pretty brilliant! 🙂
If you want a youngster to remain happy while taking pictures, I highly recommend some props…like their favorite toys!
And maybe even consider giving a baby some grass to play with… 🙂
Haha I think he’s ready for country life!
Thanks so much for coming to Maryland, Kristen! It was so lovely getting to know you and Gabriel…and I hope to see you more at MOPS after the summer is over. 🙂
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!
