Ainsley


Ainsley is a Class of 2022 senior at Southridge High School.  She plays water polo and swims for her high school which means she is one TOUGH girl.  I got to photograph Ainsley’s older brother two years ago, so it was really fun to get to know her and take her photos as well.  Ainsley wanted a combo of urban […]

Thank You for Your Service


Joseph is in the military and about to head back overseas for another tour of duty.  THANK YOU for your service to our country. Thank you to your family who misses you every day that you are gone.   Your sacrifice is not lost on me.  It was a privilege to photograph this family before Joseph leaves again.  We dodged […]

Gwen + Mike + Four Cool Kids


Gwen + Mike + Four Cool Kids = one really cool blended family.  We shot their family photos on their farm on the first rainy day Oregon has seen in months.  We thought we had dodged the rain showers, but as soon as I pulled into their driveway, it started raining again.  We waited indoors for about 20 minutes then […]

Mason


Mason is a Class of 2022 senior at Lakeridge High School.  Baseball is his passion and he is a D1 commit to play at University of Utah after he graduates.  Well done Mason!  Mason is also laid back and fun.  His photo session was a nice mix of showcasing his high school baseball, his future college, and just regular ‘ol […]

Wyatt


Wyatt is a Class of 2022 senior at Newberg High School.  He moved here in the middle of the pandemic, when everyone was locked in their homes and doing school online.  Such a rough time for a teen to move, but he has the best attitude.  I am just so impressed with his positivity and willingness to try new things […]

Andrew


Andrew is a Class of 2022 senior at Lakeridge High School.  An accomplished student, he is also a goalie for the lacrosse team.  His team won the state title last season (CONGRATULATIONS!) and he is committed to play lacrosse at Bates College after he graduates. Andrew wanted classic photos in an outdoor setting, and he brought his dog Gigi to […]

the Lawson’s


Our friendship has spanned more than a decade of raising kids together, cheering for Newberg at sporting events, and catching up on life at the grocery store or on a walk.  I just love this family.  Thanks for trusting me with your photos! Have a great year. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #familyoffive #threedaughters

Another Year with the Hall’s


I love the Hall’s.  I’ve known them since they were newly married and been photographing their family consistently since they started having babies. While we have ventured to a few different locations, we more often than not end up at Champoeg State Park for their photo sessions.  I guess it’s just our thing.  This year we shot their session at […]

Sam and Molly


Sam and Molly are Class of 2022 twins at McMinnville High School.  They agreed to take a few photos together, but I loved that they each wanted their own individual session as well.  Their Dad works in the wine industry, so photos in one of the vineyards for both seniors was a must.  Molly’s number one wish was a field […]

Sam


Sam is a Class of 2022 senior at Sherwood High School.  Baseball is his biggest hobby and we had fun taking a bunch of photos on his high school’s brand new turf field.  I think the first time I photographed Sam he was in elementary school so it was a bit surreal to be taking his senior photos.  Time really […]
