Wedding

Ande and Michael
A Downtown Sentinel Hotel

Elegant, Timeless, Classic and Fun!!! Loved getting to know this couple and the fun adventure we had during their fun engagement session. The lovely Elizabeth with Bridal Bliss coordinated and Blum Florals created the AMAZING florals with gorgeous and unique details (loved the blueberry gold dish centerpieces and the hand-painted masterpiece cake by Dreamcakes) and a fun party. The sweet ceremony took place at the historic First Presbyterian Church in downtown Portland where you could actually feel the love within the rafters! The classic and beyond stunning Governor Ballroom at the Sentinel Hotel was breathtaking. As Michael twirled Ande into the night, the incredible band Precious Byrd played on and kept the party going. As you can tell this was an evening to remember and we made some magic art. Loved this day and thank you Ande and Michael for trusting me with documenting your true love story! What a night!

John and Christine have a wonderful love and their wedding was A-M-A-Z-I-N-G. Seriously awe inspiring smiles were had by all, with the perfected experience of Mike Piper with An Affair to Remember handling coordination as well as all the gorgeous and romantic blooms. The Waverley Country Club is one of my favorite Portland Venues and I am so honored to have documented J&C’s love!

Amy and Lulzim

Amy and Lulzim’s wedding at the stunning Lan Su Chinese Garden was elegant, garden-inspired and dreamy. Liam Gillies photographed this lovely day, with help from Erica Davis. Thanks so much L and E… Awesome job! The couple had their first glance at the lovely Nines hotel and traveled to the gardens for the magical day. Kirstie Wight did the fresh and beautiful makeup and the romantic flowers were from Jordan at Blum, Amy’s mom lent her Chinese vases to the decor, which made for a lovely look. Adrianne with Paradox Productions kept the dance floor going all night and laughter, dancing and love filled the cosmos. Thank you Amy and Lulzim for choosing the Jessica Hill Photography team!

Rachel & Anthony
Ecotrust Wedding

Rachel and Anthony are a beautiful couple with big hearts.

Something Blue!

A sweet moment between Rachel and her mom.

A Cinderella moment in the limo. Love her shoes!

Portland in the house! This is one of my favorite pics, and it will mean a lot to the couple very soon, as R&A are moving to NYC soon!

The Portland rain didn’t stop Rachel and Anthony from having a blast and gallivanting around with Erica and I while we took fun photos!

The amazing Jordan with Blum Designs in Flowers created the stunning bouquets and boutonnieres using fresh hydrangeas.

haaaaay.. The guys looking fly.

This makes me cry happy tears. SO in love!

The roof top terrace at EcoTrust is a stunning place to say your I Do’s.

The venue is so very hip and urban with an elegant, yet eclectic feel.

Saint Cupcake created the lovely tower of treats, and the favors were environmentally friendly grocery bags for the guests.

It was a super fun party with awesome music, dancing and friends!

Rachel and Anthony are an intelligent and incredible couple who recently tied the knot on top of EcoTrusts roof in the heart of the Pearl District. The wedding party was a ton of fun and R&A could not have been happier! Rachel and Anthony met here in Portland while Anthony was in town for business, and now business is moving them to NYC for an awesome job opportunity. R&A – I wish you the best of life, happiness always and don’t forget to write! Portland will miss you! xoxo Hope you love the sneak peek!
