Thaiks for checking out my site. My name is Justin Hawthorne, a wedding and portrait photographer based out of Portland, Oregon. I've been shooting weddings professionally since 2004 and continue to love my job,

My formal education in the arts and my photographic aspirations revolved around journalism and exploration. Being able to document and create photographic stories of different places and people translated, for me, quite well into the wedding scene. Creating a photographic story of your day, from start to finish using journalistic and candid techniques as well as fashion-style portraiture is my goal in both my art and career.

I do my best to post the most current info here, on my blog
