Engagement

Engaged: Katie & Matt

I love the vintage elegance and feel of Union Station, where my office and studio is located. Katie and Matt’s outfits look great with this location… Love her shoes!

Who doesn’t love a rooftop garden kiss! Matt, Katie and I discovered this great location on our fun walk around the Pearl District.

We also discovered an awesome sports bar, where we toasted to the holidays and caught a bit of the Gonzaga game. Check out Matt’s awesome Trail Blazers blog at BustaBucket.com.

Katie and Matt and I had a super fun time on our engagement shoot, first starting in Union Station and continuing on to the Pearl District in NW Portland. This couple is super fun and incredibly kind. They brought me a rocking Christmas CD with tons of great jazz music on it, which my family has been loving and listening to non-stop. Thanks guys! We also had a great time toasting to the holidays while watching some crazy Montana football fans and the Gonzaga game at a local sports bar… Thanks SO much Katie and Matt for being awesome and a ton of fun! I can’t wait for your wedding in July and I’m very honored and excited to be working with such a kind-hearted, positive and hip couple!

Wedding

Erin & Colin
Queen Anne Victorian Mansion Wedding

Erin and Colin’s surreal day took place at the magnificent Queen Anne Victorian Mansion in North Portland. This couple is truly meant to be together forever. After knowing each other since high school and writing love notes back and forth they went their separate ways to find each other again in good ol’ Portland! (yeah for love!) Erin looked stunning with her elegant vintage style, complete with hot red pumps and feather hair piece. Colin was looking dapper in a classic tux with white vest and fedora. Lamb’s Thirftway did a great job on the cake and flowers, which incorporated deep reds and blacks into their creative color scheme with raspberries in the bouquets and black damask ribbon around the cake. The music was off the hook and the party continued into a late-night croquet playing and cigar smoking bash. Travis and I have had the amazing privilege to get to know this incredible, creative couple and we’re so honored that we were there to document this breathtaking and poetic day. We love you guys fo’ real:)

Wedding

Taryn & Aaron
Vancouver Water Resource Center Wedding

Taryn and Aaron are a wonderful couple
and have a great energy together! Their wedding took place on August 28th at the New Heights Church and the Vancouver Water Resource Center.
Their colors were red and black with spashes of yellow and purple and they reflected the fun
elegance of the day. The best part of the day was hanging out on the grounds of the Water Resource Center for fun pics of the couple and the wedding party. The view, the fountain, the sky.. It was all perfect and
the couple shows it! Thank you so much Taryn and Aaron for inviting me
to document your first steps together as husband and wife! Hope you
enjoy the view!

Wedding

Rhonda & Clint
Portland Wedding Photographer

Rhonda and Clint’s August wedding was an incredible collaboration for
the perfect country wedding! The ceremony and reception took place at
Rhonda’s beautiful family home in Aumsville
Oregon. Erica Davis was the main
photographer for this wedding and with Travis Schreer as a second
photographer- they rocked the heck out of the photos! The fantastic Cindy Rosen with Encore events coordinated the event and did an
outstanding job of pulling everything together to create the amazing
wedding! Rhonda and Clint are so much fun and looked so fly on their wedding day! The magnificent Jennifer Rand-Walker with Face Body Beauty did Rhonda’s fresh makeup! Their wedding colors were so much fun and filled the landscape
with bright oranges, pinks and purples! The stunning invites were from
the talented Cherie Ronning with Uncommon Invites, and the great linens, tent and fun dance floor were rented from Barclay Event Rentals! The delicious food was spiced to perfection from the talented crew at Premiere Catering. Their
day was inspired by their families and Rhonda’s cousin made the yummy
cake and a close family friend made the personal flowers! Sandy Shipley was the officiant and helped to create an unforgettable ceremony. Kevan Inouye was the master of the great centerpieces and floral decor. Hybrid Moon videography was in action, as the lovely Heather documented the vows, and toasts and everything in between, while All Wright music
did an awesome job of keeping the dance floor jam packed and rocking
all night! Thanks so much to Rhonda and Clint for choosing Jessica Hill
Photography and hope you love the sneak peek! Your comments are welcome
and loved!

Wedding

Megan & Ryan
Skamania Lodge Wedding

Megan and Ryan’s spectacular wedding took place on August 2nd at Skamania Lodge.
Overlooking the George, Skamania has a poetic mountain landscape on the Columbia River. Ryan and Megan and their amazing cutie-pie daughter Reece, celebrated in style with vows said in the cool summer breeze, delicious food and gorgeous flowers by Geranium Lakes. Megan’s stunning hair and makeup by the fabulous Jennifer Walker of Face Body Beauty. Erica and I had a blast capturing
all the artistic and photojournalistic moments. The wedding was beautiful, emotional, fun
and very modern with a great color palette of greens, purples and ivory! Thank you so much Megan, Ryan and Reece for choosing
Jessica Hill Photography to document your first steps together as the Kramer family!

Engagement

Engaged: Libby & Kenneth

Libby and Kenneth are a super cool couple who are getting married August 29th at the beautiful View Point Inn. We recenlty met up for a very urban and hip engagement shoot. I love photographing on the streets of Portland, because there is always something weird and different. We found this super funky car in the Pearl district, and I love the solar flair, which adds to the colors! We also ran into a tall cowboy on the waterfront, which adds an element of mystery to the pics! Thanks so much for choosing me to document your first steps together as husband and wife and enjoy the sneak peek!

Engagement

Engaged: Tora & David!

Tora and David and I met recently in Foothills Park in Lake Oswego. This park is stunning and filled with cool features on the waterfront which made for a great backdrop for their fun pics! Little did we know, however that the “concerts in the park” was going on, so we had to dodge the 100’s of people and the bad cover music. 🙂 Made for a great laugh though! My sister, Lauren, has also been assisting me on photoshoots and got some great photos as well! Thanks to Tora and David for the inspring location and shoot! Hope you both love the sneak peek. Your comments are appreciated and encouraged!
