One thing I clearly remember about Tara and Branden’s wedding day was Tara’s radiating smile. From moment one of my time during their wedding day, Tara had a big, bright smile on her face. Whether she was gathering her jewelry, getting her hair curled or pulling bugs out of her dress skirt, she was always smiling or laughing. It was so comforting to know that she was genuinely enjoying herself on her big day.
Everything took place at the well-known Lakeview Resort in Morgantown. The weather forecast was iffy almost all day, so there was a last-minute decision to move the ceremony inside. But thankfully, the rain didn’t come and we were able to spend lots of time outside taking pictures. It was a beautiful Friday evening affair! Enjoy lots of my favorites… 🙂
Tara’s dress was beautiful…and she was beautiful in it!
See! Laughing and smiling. 🙂
Love these smiley bridesmaids pictures. Especially the photo bomb!
Thanks to my second shooter Callie for the next two pictures…
Callie also took this shot and it’s one of my favorites from the day!
Definitely a collection favorite for me! 
Lots of reception details!!
DJ Sean Nice got the party started early! I love how he joins his crowd on the dance floor. 🙂
Probably one of the best reception pictures I’ve ever taken. 🙂
CONGRATS Tara and Branden! I’m so glad we were able to make things happen because I had a wonderful time at your wedding! You put together a beautiful event and I hope you guys truly enjoyed yourselves…and will enjoy each other for many years to come. 🙂 Thank you so much for having me!
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!
