Danielle and Sean are fun loving and awesome couple that tied the knot on May 29th at The Riverplace Hotel on Portland's stunning waterfront. 
I fell in love with Danielle's "something blue" these jaw-dropping Gucci diamond and topaz earrings. *gasp and smile* 
Danielle looked incredible in her Nicole Miller gown.
Getting ready for the first glance, so sweet. 
Lacy with Form and Flora created the stunning bouquets and centerpieces. I love how each bouquet is different! 
The guys looked goooood! 
We lucked out because D&S wedding took place during Rose Festival and these incredible flags were right next to the hotel entrance! Love this pic that Liam captured. 
Danielle and her Dad walking down the aisle. Love this moment and a special thanks to Dad's everywhere :) Loved the view from the courtyard, where the ceremony was held.
What up newly weds!?
This candid pic really shows how sweet and adorable D&S are together. They are kind-hearted and fun to be around! 
Really touching, yet funny toasts from the BM and MoH. 
oh yeah cake! The beautiful and yummy cake by Helen Bernhards Bakery. 
Love love love this one. 
I'm not sure if it was playing, but when I look at these I seem to remember "To the Window- To the Wall..." and then I want to dance.

Garden Vineyards is take-your-breath-away venue with vistas and gardens in every nook and cranny. A picturesque dream. 
Tiff and her dress were stunning and she found it at the incredible Divine Designs Bridal Shop in NW Portland. 
A handsome scene! 
Yeah sister love! 
T&G are just as compassionate and kindhearted as they are gorgeous! 
A touching and beautiful ceremony. The super cool and ridiculously talented Paul Rich shot along side me and captured this beautiful pic during the ceremony.
Love this pic! 
Their awesome dog Vivi was the ring bearer! 
The "OMG those are incredible" flowers were created by the gifted ladies at Quince. 
The tables were named after locations that T&G had traveled to together. The invites, table cards, menus and name holders were crafted with love by the brilliant Julie with Studio Olivine. 
The excellent food and staff provided by Art of Catering. 
George is in a band and all of his talented band mates and friends performed during the ceremony and cocktail hour. 
Yes, T&G are so cool they had Voodoo Doughnut in lieu of a wedding cake. Their personal doughnut was the maple bacon heart... mmm true love and bacon! 
Karaoke From Hell provided the kick ass entertainment with a live band and karaoke from Tiff and George's family and friends. George performed a few songs and has an awesome voice! 
Tiff and George are a terrific couple and they had an incredible wedding. Although it rained here and there during their wedding, the sun came out and shined at the perfect moments creating breathtaking memories throughout the magical day. Tiff and George are true soul mates and it was wonderful to witness their family and friends celebrating their love. Thank you SO much T&G for inviting me to document your surreal day.

Jenni teaches at Barre 3 in the Pearl and we were able to photograph inside during the rain for some awesome pics! How bad ass is this pic!?

Kim and Peter had an incredible vintage-inspired wedding with their closest family and friends at their NE home.
K&P were inspired by vintage photos of their family and we tried to replicate the poses and coloring of these cherished photos that adorn their walls. 
Kim looked incredible in her hand dyed dress, mary janes and feathers in her hair. 
The ceremony was short and sweet and took place in their dining room with about 6 attendees. Very intimate and cozy. 
The invites and cake topper all came from their illustrator friend who used the couple and Edward Gorey as inspiration. 
The delicious food and bar was catered by the lovely folks at Holocene. 
Duchess created and tailored the suit for Peter and they are awesome. 
This wedding was so beyond average. It was laid back, artistic, intimate and tons of fun. 
SOOOO cute! Beautiful photos, Amazing work Jessica! I especially love the last one :)

How fun and awesome is this pic...partly because of the No Parking detail, mostly because of Kaley's awesome hair! 
We found this great truck in a nearby parking lot, but much to our surprise their was a killer dog in the front seat. (well, maybe not killer, but really scary!) 
I'm in love with the motion involved with this series. 
This building is so very 1940's Dick Tracy...so rad 
Two great shots from my awesome new second photographer Liam. Great pics of a hot couple! 
Jessica - breathtaking as always.LOVE the "Security" picture. And what a small world - Kaley and I danced together a million moons ago :)

Vista Hill Vineyard is an incredible venue with a breathtaking view. 
Premiere Catering provided the delicious and beautiful food. 
The amazing Becky Simpson with No Ordinary Affair coordinated the event and runs the Wine Country Wedding Professional group. She and Kat did a great job making the event a success. 
The talented Francoise Weeks created all the flowers on display. She creates unique and interesting bouquets with succulents and even fruit and vegetables. The middle bouquet is in an eggplant! 
Waterlily invitations created all the darling menu cards.
Those first few food photos are making me super hungry. A fun meeting and I'm glad we got a chance to catch up too! As usual, nice job on the photos Jessica!

David proposed to Britt with 1000 paper cranes that he folded. The tradition comes from an ancient Japanese legend, which grants the receiver of the cranes with 1000 years of happiness and prosperity. 
Love these vintage-inspired images in a cool phone booth. These things are practically vintage! 
David brought his bow and arrow and we set up some imaginative theme photos. I love love love this image! 
Britt is in medical school and is almost Dr. Brittany! Her wonderful parents bought her this medical bag to keep her supplies in. 
Their dog, Tycho, was in tow and was the sweetest thing ever! How cute is it that they all match! oh my gosh! SO fun! what a great couple to photograph and what a sweet story about their engagement... beautiful and creative photos as always, jessica.
(05.16.10)These are all gorgeous! I love the blue mountain wall, the archery and the phonebooth. This is like 4 engagement sessions!

I love the fun and nature loving energy of this great couple! 
In love with this pic and the incredible backdrop of cherry blossoms! 
Zoe is an impressive Mastiff, who's actually the runt! Her mom is 98 lbs! She's a cutiepie!
Here is a closer look at the featured image:
what a beautiful composition. i love the fact that the more traditional view of the couple embracing is referenced and framed in the mirror, but the rest of the image has this entirely different environmental element, with the eyes being drawn across the scene to land on the soft focused hands. nicely done!

Kami and Brett are a super kind-hearted couple. We photographed at Rejuvenation in SE Portland.
Photographing through the lighting fixtures. Love this shot. 
Kami and Brett are such an awesome couple who are getting married in May of this year. For their engagement session we had quite the adventure! We started at an architectural salvage shop because K&B just bought their first home together and love to work on home projects together. Then we went to the waterfront beneath the Hawthorne bridge to document where they first met. I was completely inspired by their story and their positive energy and I can't wait to be a part of their wedding soon!
WOW! Thank you Jessica, the photos are awesome!! We can't wait to see more!
(04.20.10)WOW! Thank you Jessica, the photos are awesome!! We can't wait to see more!

This shadow of Sally and John together makes me smile.
Awesome work as usual. I love the picture w/that big tree! We definitely do not have those here on Maui.

Jessica, you brought tears to my eyes while watching this! Thank you so much for the slide show, it brings back all the wonderful memories that were made that day. You are the best!

Meet Brad and Courtney, an incredibly kind-hearted, fun and exuberant couple. 
The rehearsal dinner was held at the beautiful Sky Beach Club. The night was filled with hip-shaking island music, a fish fry and good laughs and a hilarious toast given by Brad's Dad. 
This welcome bag was given to all the guests which had lots of thoughtful treats, a bottle of wine, a map of Eleuthera Island and the keepsake canvas beach bag, which replicated the artistic invite. This is just one example of how friendly and sweet B&C are. 
Fun shots of the guys. Brad's coat created by Portland's own Este's Men's Store. 
Courtney was a breathtaking bride, wearing a custom dress by Phillips Bridal, located in Portland. 
The exquisite sunset ceremony was held on the Caribbean Sea. All the guests and couple were barefoot with their feet in the soft sand. 
The centerpieces were created using vintage tea canisters, which Courtney had been collecting for the occasion. The flowers included a colorful array of roses, zinnias, mums and tropical greens. 
The wedding took place Cocodimama, an elegant and charming beach resort with an Italian rustic menu. The rooms, service, food and atmosphere were beyond amazing. 
The dancing, laughs and fun went on throughout the night. 
Judith Arnell created the sophisticated custom wedding bands. Danae Hernandez with I Dream of Letters was the brilliant calligrapher behind the invite design. 
A relaxing and yummy good bye brunch was held the next day at the Sky Beach Club. 
Jessica and Travis,
Thank you guys once again for making the trip and dazzling us with your amazing talents. After seeing a few incredible photos the day after the wedding, the anticipation for more has been killing us. These are just wonderful and thank you for the kind words. I can't tell you how nice it was down there to not have to worry about whether we were going to have amazing pictures of the special day. I'm not sure how we're going decide which ones to frame! Anything I can do for you, please let me know!
(03.28.10)Ummmmmmm..... WOW.... Seeing these photos is like getting pinched... I thought it was just a really vivid dream.
Thank you for bringing your fabulous gift and tremendous spirit to our wedding in the Bahamas! I would've guessed that it would be an impossible task to capture the love that was in the room that night.. You captured what we were all feeling but never could've articulated. Thank you is an understatement. (tears)
We will always be your biggest fans...
Love,
Brad and Courtney
You did it! Somehow you managed to capture the beauty, love, fun, and joy of the wedding events. Now, we will be able to relive and enjoy the moments forever.

Nice photos. Great song choice by the way. My husband is good friends with Karin and Lindford (Over the Rhine). They are awesome people and amazing musicians and songwriters. If you have ever have the chance to see them live you need to check them out. They come o Seattle about once a year. Jessica you would totally hit it off with Karin. Also check out Innocence Mission great band, too.

Angela and Jason are fun-filled and witty couple with plenty of style and posh. Their October wedding was modern, spacious and elegant. I'm super honored that their wedding was just featured on one of the best wedding blogs in Oregon, Portland Style Unveiled. I was super excited to see the stunning layout of images, and the great write up from Angela, the bride.
From the write up, she wrote this about her wedding photography experience with Jessica Hill Photography. (I honestly started tearing up at her beautiful words, which were elegantly written and extremely touching.)
"I visited Yelp and explored the websites of several local photographers. There was a photographic style I had in mind however I was struggling to articulate it. I kept coming across websites with obviously talented photographers, however non displayed photos with any edge. Images were flat and one-dimensional and I was looking for a photography artist. Someone who played with exposures and film types, color and lenses. Someone who took photos with a "Wow" factor. Modern, Stylish.
When I came across the website for Jessica Hill, I was very excited. This woman was clearly an artist. I scheduled an appointment and met up at her studio above the train station- my favorite Portland landmark. After meeting Jessica I was most impressed by her take-control confidence. We were on the same wave length, and she was able to articulate and show me examples of the look I was seeking. After looking at photographer websites I was curious as to why only some of them offered "engagement photos". I wasn't sure if I wanted them and I had never heard of anyone getting them, however they were a part of each of Jessica's photo packages. Her rationale was simple and made perfect sense- she always included them because it enabled her to learn how to best shoot the wedding couple before the big day and it's an opportunity to learn more about the type of shots the couple wants. Makes perfect sense.
When we received our wedding photos we were blown away. First of all, Jason and I are camera shy and don't believe we photograph well- yet she made us look fantastic. Secondly- the photos looked like they were plucked out of a magazine. Elegant, playful, artistic and just gorgeous. I've had no less than 20 people ask who my photographer was- and whether she'll travel to San Francisco. As they say- a picture says a 1000 words- just check out her work to see for yourself."
