The Petersen Family!

09.11.09

I love how Isaiah's watching mom and dad kiss!

Some of you might recognize the cutie pie blonde baby in these photos as Isaiah from his 6 month session! Well... He's already a year old and such a big boy:) They grow up sooo fast, he was walking all over the place! I met up recently with the lovely Kehau, her amazing husband Dean and their great family at the beautiful Laurelhurst Park. When I originally photographed Isaiah, we focused mainly on him (how can you not!) This time around however it was a super fun-filled day with Mom, Dad, Grandma and Cousin! Kehau is originally from Hawaii, so her mom and niece flew in for the b-day party and we were all able to get together for the nature-inspired family photos! Hope you love the sneak peek and your comments are always encouraged!

Real Wedding: Ali & Jared 8-7-09

09.09.09

Ali and Jared's wedding was incredibly beautiful and inspiring! From the vineyard vistas to the garden elegance, Garden Vineyards is a stunning venue located in Hillsboro, Oregon. Jared and Ali looked amazing and exchanged vows with family and friends and their awesome dog, who also joined them on the dance floor for their first dance as husband and wife! The flowers (insanely awesome!) were done by one of Ali's close friends:) The exquisite food was both vegan friendly and delicious by the talented team at Art of Catering. The seriously good music was spun by Mr Mumu - who I can't wait to dance to again soon at Saucebox. Thanks So very much for choosing me to document your gorgeous wedding and enjoy the sneak peek! Please leave a comment if you can find the only autumn leaf on the dress tree... or just because!

Hi,
Love your Composition on your pictures. But have to ask a question...Why are your pictures so white in the face? Just wondered, what camera do you have and are you using Auto?
Could you make the face's with more color in them? My bother is a photographer and said this looks like you may be using "auto mode"?
I love the way you put the people in the picture but just don't like the color.. Would love to know more about your camera, since we will be getting married out your way next Aug.. Thanks so much. Please send me your price list.. we are from Michigan and looking for a photographer like you in your area. lola

Jessica Hill:

Thanks so much for the comments! Lola- Congrats on your engagement! I use a Canon 5D mark II Camera, always in Manual Mode for both shooting as well as white balance. The white color could be because your monitor isn't calibrated correctly. I can always add more color to the images if that's the look you prefer :)

Real Wedding: Amber & Kody 8-3-09

09.02.09

I was honored to document Amber and Kody's wedding on August 3rd at the Portland Rose Garden and The Portland City Grill. Amber and Kody both wore TOMS Shoes and I think this really speaks volumes about their compassion and love, not only towards each other, but for the world. See TOMS mission here. Their lovely sermon focused on Amber & Kody's love of nature and animals. (I'm totally in love with their awesome dogs Wheezy and Marley:) They were also attendants at the wedding! Amber wore Lena Medoyeff and looked gorgeous with her hand crafted bouquet made from fresh flowers from the local farmers market! :) Yeah! (Didn't she do a GREAT job!?) Their wedding was incredibly fun, hip and relaxed, with Grandma and Dad doing the Wave and napkin hats with the family! I had so much fun & I'm super honored to have been a part of the adventure! Hope you enjoy every instant of the preview. :) Your thoughts are welcome!

Real Wedding: Megan & Ryan 8-2-09

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!
