Jessica Hill Goes Above and Beyond

There’s a reason Jessica Hill is consistently voted one of Oregon’s best wedding photographers! Her photographs are stunning, she’s a true professional, and just an all-around awesome person who we were grateful for leading up to and on our big day.

My wife and I had the pleasure of having Jessica capture both our engagement shoot (October 2021) and wedding (October 2022). As expected, the Portland weather didn’t exactly play nice, but Jessica wasn’t fazed, timing our moments through the rain, and hustling for every angle. She straight up climbed into a boat on the waterfront to capture our favorite picture from our engagement shoot. She perfectly captured the vibe of our wedding as well. We were aiming for timeless, city chic, and she 100% delivered, shooting us in a way that could have come from any era, that didn’t feel static or formulaic. I’m a crier, but absolutely teared up at both our engagement and wedding photos, at the way she captured our emotions and love. I could go on and on about the photos, her portfolio speaks for itself… a photo is worth a thousand words, right? Jessica’s pictures write full novels.

More important than the product, Jessica made my wife and I feel incredibly comfortable. We’re both introverted but she made us feel playful and fully ourselves. As a same-sex couple, we were also particular about finding someone who wouldn’t just be respectful but direct and pose us in an authentic way, which she did from the start.

Lastly what sets Jessica head and shoulders above the rest, is her intuition and awareness of so much more than what’s in the viewfinder. One moment that stands out to me, is when I had a few relatives insisting on joining pictures that they weren’t meant to be part of. Jessica picked up on it right away, gave me a subtle look, and tactfully sent them on their way, taking stress off my shoulders as a bride. And just being the kind human she is, she loaned me socks when I forgot mine for my reception shoe change– though I don’t think this is included in her photo packages lol.

We called audibles, made last minute changes, even added a surprise guest, waded through the stress and tension at times, but Jessica was steady, flexible, and calming throughout.
Honestly, whenever we were in her hands, we felt most at ease in the chaos of the big day. She’s exactly the presence you want in those moments, neither a distraction nor liability, a complete professional and incredible photographer.

10/10, hiring Jessica was probably the best decision we made for our wedding and we could not recommend her enough!

Amazing photographer!

Jessica has taken photos for my cousins' weddings and that was how I know of Jessica. I reached out to her during my wedding planning process, and she was super helpful. We started off with a conversation over email and set a time and date to talk and discuss through Zoom. Jessica is extremely patient and professional! She knows what she is doing. We had our engagement photos at the beach, and she made us feel so comfortable during the whole shoot. She was so patient with our dog as well. Jessica captured every little detail of our wedding even photos we didn't thought of. Jessica is well worth it! Highly recommend Jessica!!

Owner/Photographer

Hi there, I'm Jessica!

I've been working with couples and photographing weddings since 2001, I still love nothing more than looking through my lens and documenting the moments that make human relationships so rich. When I see the way you laugh together, the way you look at at each other, and your eyes sparkle; I see your life as a work of art and it’s such an honor to capture yours!

With a BFA in Photography from the University of Michigan, numerous awards including the Oregon Bride Best Portland Photographer of 2018 & 2020 and finalist for 2019, many publications, and fifteen years of photographing weddings; my style is a blend of photojournalism and creative portraiture. With a fresh perspective that celebrates all of the passion, emotion, and electricity that makes your life and love so unique.

My images themselves reflect the Jessica Hill Photography couple—bold, magnetic, and beautiful. From the initial proposal story to the finished album, my personality-driven portraits are timeless tales of this incredible part of your life.

I'm also a momma and wife living in beautiful Hood River, Oregon. When I'm not shooting or editing, I’m spending as much time as I can with my son before he starts school this fall! Yoga over zoom, cooking Alisone Roman recipes and exploring new places around our home.

I can't wait to work with you!
