Where to begin with Jess and Josh’s magnificent Portland, OR wedding?! Let’s just kick it off in a two part series. Day One: we begin with the first look in Portland’s historic rose garden, Peninsula Park. This park is absolutely gorgeous. If you’ve ever been to Portland, you know they’re known for exhilarating gardens and parks. The green grass runway, reminiscent of the red carpet, guided Jess to Josh for their first look. We then strolled about the park and captured some really beautiful imagery. After, we drove over to yet another amazing location; the forest of Hoyt Arboretum. The vast, lush foliage of the forest provided a serene backdrop as we captured more fantastic photographs. OK, scratch, “photograph a wedding couple while gallivanting through the forest,” off my bucket list! I was just blown away by the experience from this day and it was only day one! I just knew that the following day, Jess and Josh’s wedding was going to be epic. I can’t wait to share! Stay tuned for “Day Two.”
