Wedding Videography at EcoTrust
EcoTrust occupies the Jean Vollum Natural Capital Center in Portland's Pearl District, a landmark adaptive reuse building where nineteenth-century brick and heavy timber construction meets contemporary sustainability design. The result is one of Portland's most visually compelling event spaces: soaring ceilings with exposed old-growth fir beams, warm brick walls that absorb and radiate light beautifully, and a sense of urban history that gives wedding cinematography an immediate and distinctive sense of place. EcoTrust is the kind of venue where the building itself tells a story, and that story becomes part of every wedding film made within it.
For a wedding videographer, EcoTrust's interior volumes are exceptional to work in. The height of the timber frame allows light to travel and diffuse across the full depth of the space, eliminating the flat, shadowless quality that lower-ceilinged venues often produce. The warm tones of the aged fir beams and brick respond to candlelight and reception lighting in a way that feels natural and inviting rather than staged or manufactured. And the rooftop terrace, with its views over the Pearl District toward the West Hills, provides an outdoor counterpoint to the rich interior that gives a wedding film genuine visual range across the arc of the evening.
Film House Weddings is proud to be a preferred vendor at EcoTrust. For Portland couples who want a wedding film rooted in the character and creativity of their city, EcoTrust delivers a setting that is unmistakably, beautifully Portland at its most thoughtful and distinctive.

Every Film House Weddings package is custom built for the couple, the venue, and the wedding day. Reach out through our Connect page and we will build a proposal tailored to your wedding.
How far in advance should we book?
We recommend 9 to 18 months for peak season (May through October).
What is included in a wedding film package?
We build a custom package for every couple based on your vision and your wedding day. Typically, every client receives a 5 to 7 minute cinematic wedding film and a reel. Our team works directly with your planner and photographer to ensure seamless coverage from getting ready through the last dance.
Do you work with our photographer and wedding planner?
Absolutely. Coordination with your vendor team is a core part of our process. We work directly with your planner and photographer before and during the wedding day to make sure everyone is in sync and no moment is missed.
Do you offer drone videography?
Yes. Drone coverage is available as an add-on, coordinated with local airspace rules and any venue restrictions.
How long until we receive our wedding film?
Delivery timelines are discussed during the proposal stage and depend on the season and edit scope. Expedited delivery is available if you need your film sooner. Let us know during the booking conversation and we will build a timeline that works for you. Final films are delivered digitally via a private link.
Do you provide raw footage?
Raw footage is available on request as an add-on. Most couples do not request it, since our edited cinematic film, reel, and optional full ceremony and speeches edit capture everything that matters. If raw footage is important to you, let us know during the proposal conversation and we will include it in your custom package.
Will you provide a second shooter?
Our standard package is filmed by a two-person team. Additional shooters are available as an add-on.
