If the form is invalid, you have to add data['form'] = form to redisplay the form on the page. Or better, do not use the data variable at all:

def contact(request):
    if request.method == "POST":
        form = ContactForm(request.POST)
        if form.is_valid():
            subject = form.cleaned_data['subject']
            email = form.cleaned_data['email']
            message = form.cleaned_data['message']
            try:
                send_mail(subject, message, email, ['inbox01@yahoo.com'])
            except BadHeaderError:
                return HttpResponse('Invalid header found.')
            return HttpResponseRedirect('/contact/thanks/')
    else:
        form = ContactForm(
            initial={'subject': 'I love your site!'}
        )

    return render(request, 'contact_form.html', {'form': form})
