Portland Recap

Last weekend I had the opportunity to go to Portland to assist Noa of Feather Love Photography shoot the winning wedding from her contest. I have been to Portland once before, six years ago, with an old friend on a wild trip we took across country. I always imagined myself there and the moment I got into the city this time around I felt like I was home. I love the buildings and the little details, all the people (crazy or not) who wander around, the style, and the vibe. If Portland were closer to my family and friends I would settle down there in a heartbeat. Can't we just recreate it somewhere on the east coast? We stayed at the Ace Hotel (where else would I go?) and it was definitely pretty chic inside. Huge windows, movie posters, record players, terrariums. The staff left a little to be desired but I guess that's what happens when you stay in a "hipster hotel." I took some photos but they seriously do not do the city justice. Not like the photos that Noa took. Please go check them out.
