Jessica Hill Photography - Wedding Photographer - OregonA darling frenchie named Mean Joe Green, a gorgeous couple, a rooftop and Bluehour Restaurant? What could be better? Mai and Jason celebrated their Santorini, Greece wedding with immediate family and friends in Portland, Mai’s hometown. Surrounded with kindness, and love, the couple relived their gorgeous wedding day through images, and stories and many of those who couldn’t celebrate with them, did have an amazing night to remember. Bluehour was decorated for the holiday season, which made the ambiance that much more perfect. Thanks for inviting me to document your intimate and wonderful Portland celebration. xo
