About

Hello! My name is Kelly Wilde and I'm the owner of June Lion. I'm a Portland, OR based wedding photographer but I also love to travel for those distant or destination weddings.

My style is a blend of photojournalistic and fine-art wedding photography and I think this gives perfect documentation of the humor, emotion, art, and honesty of your wedding day. I want my photos to have a life of their own, and making your wedding day even better than you remember it is a creative challenge that I thrive on.

I'm a do-it-yourselfer, dog person, art lover, open-minded, lover of puns, and a photographer through and through. I love what I do and put all my energy into the weddings I photograph.

Take a look at my work, then let's get together and chat about photography. I hope to hear from you!

Just What We Were Looking For

Kelly really brought our vision to life from engagement shoot to wedding day and we are so grateful to have her amazing photos to look back on for the rest of our lives. We wanted most of our photos to be candid and have a somewhat natural feel to them as I am not the best at posed photos.. We loved the mix of black and white and color and appreciated her direction with our large group of rambunctious bridesmaids/groomsmen. She kept her cool and helped calm me down by while I was feeling extremely anxious - she truly delivered for us as did her assistant. The prints we received were beautiful and I look forward to purchasing more in the future!

An artist with her camera

Kelly,

As our trip is coming to a close, we are reflecting on the highlights. Of coarse, the engagement itself is at the very top. The entire process of our experience at the waterfall, appreciating such a visually stunning natural wonder, the exact moment of the proposal, the elated feelings of joy, nervousness, wonder and love; all of these things are held together in our minds eye and the moments you captured. Without you working your artistic magic, it would just be a blissful recollection of experience, with no visual recall, no spirit of the moment captured for us to relive. We are forever grateful for you spending the time to help us capture such an amazing moment.

As dreary as it was, the cold, the wet, I know it only adds to the unique elements of the photos and we are so excited to see them. I imagine it was miserable for you but you handled it with such professionalism and grace, we didn't notice.

I just wanted to take this time before we fly out to say how much it meant to us, how genuinely kind, patient, wonderful and easy to work with you it was. Thank you and I wish you and your family all the best :)

- Gage Bliven and Bridgette Dove

Brilliant artist!!

Title says it all. Along with her radiant, run personality! She was a blessing from above for sure! She helped us out in many, many ways. Honestly this wedding wouldn't have happened without her dedication, passion, and drive! We honestly couldn't have picked a better photographer. She was putting herself out there to get the best shots for our amazing day! The way she stepped up for us, made our hearts so full they could have exploded. So yes, we absolutely do recommend her! Thank you, thank you, thank you!
