Mindy and James are getting married soon in Portland and I had the pleasure of photographing their engagement shoot around the Pearl district and the Broadway bridge. I love this shoot for the fun colors of the backdrops with the mix of their unique styles! So darling. Thanks for choosing me to document the big day and Go Blue! (James is a fellow alumni of the University of Michigan!) Looking forward to July 9!

I'm loving your compositions in this shoot. The shots in series, the ones using negative space, all so good. I'm totally signing up for your workshop on the 20th.

 Katie and Santiago are a charming and lovable couple with a love for soccer and nature! Loved meeting up in my new hood at the Overlook Park in N. Portland and I'm so excited to be photographing their wedding soon and it sounds like they have an awesome day planned. Stay tuned to see their wedding pics in late summer! Looking forward K&S!

Kate and Brandon are a super fun and stylish couple who recently met up with a talented recent member of the Jessica Hill Photography team! Elijah Hoffman is a photographer from Rochester NY and attended the RIT school of photography. He likes good music, vanilla coke and being tall.
Kate and Brandon are getting married in 2012 and I love their edgy and urban style and their fun energy...adorbs! (esp. Kate's hot yellow shoes!) Congrats K&B!

The foundation of a wedding is love, and the foundation of the wedding industry is community. That's why I love concept shoots! It's a great way to create a specific style for a wedding idea and have fun with other wedding professionals.

I can't thank all of you enough for your hard work!

Event Rentals: The Party Place
Umbrella Rental: Bella Umbrella

Hood in April and a parking lot in Welches, OR is where these images were taken. Timberline is a personal fave of mine for so many reasons. It's a cool, historic hotel with a stunning view and a great history. Bobby and Jennie love to chillax here on the weekends, and snowboard, hike and hang out and it made perfect sense for us to photograph their engagements here! Hope you love the sneak peek B&J and I'm SO excited for your summer wedding at the beautiful, Oregon Golf Club!

These are gorgeous Jessica! I love the spring snow feel that this shoot has - not easy to capture.

Bobby and Jennie:

Jennie and I had so much fun with you up at Mt. Hood! I swear I look at this post every single day. You absolutely captured how happy and in love we are together in these photos. We can't wait to see the rest of the photos as well as our wedding photos! Six more weeks!
