Sister Sister Mini-Session


We’ve been trying to find a dry patch of 15 minutes to photograph these cute sisters. The last three weeks of non-stop rain have been tricky for outdoor photography, but after rescheduling twice, we finally grabbed a morning where it was drizzling but not pouring and shot their session under cover.  It was great to meet Allyssa and Peyton and […]

Mariana


Mariana is a Class of 2022 senior at Newberg High School.  She is obsessed with her black lab, loves being outdoors, and cherishes the areas where she grew up and has made memories with her family and friends.  She selected those memory-making spots as the locations for her senior portrait sessions: the downtown area of McMinnville where she and her […]

Another Year with the Nanson’s


The Nanson’s hired me my first year in business when I was still offering student pricing and basically learning how to take portraits on paying customers.  Thankfully they came back the next year. And the next year.  This year makes EIGHT years that I have photographed their family. We’re all very comfortable around each other and secure in the expectations […]

Tate


Tate is a Class of 2022 senior at Sherwood High School.  He loves to hang out with his friends and play pick up basketball, but his favorite hobby is lacrosse.  And he’s good at it.  Tate’s defense will most likely land him a position on a college lacrosse team.  Which lucky team is still up in the air.  I’m excited […]

Ruth and Her Family


I met Ruth at the gym when our our Littles were actually little.  She is just delightful and we have many treasured memories of time spent running together. As our kids grew up, life took us in separate directions… our opportunities to connect became less frequent, but in a way, it makes the times we do see each other that […]

Keiran


Keiran is a Class of 2022 senior at Westside Christian High School.  She plays volleyball.  Sings. Creates and is super artistic.  She has a fun sense of style and whimsy about her.  I loved getting to know her and her mom.  We had a BEAUTIFUL fall day for her senior session.  The hardest part of her session was narrowing her […]

Will


Will is a Class of 2022 senior at Westside Christian High School.  He plays basketball, is very social, and likes to hang with his friends.  Will is super chill, easy to be around, up for any adventure, and has that big giant smile.  I loved getting to know him better.  Have a great year senior year Will! #jodistilpphotography #classof2022 #seniorportraits […]

Kaspar


Kaspar is a Class of 2022 senior at Newberg High School.  He’s one of those well-rounded kids that seems to be good at everything.  He’s athletic: has played soccer and run cross country.  He’s a musician: he brought his guitar and started playing and I kind of forgot to take photos because I was enjoying listening so much.  He’s talented! […]

the Dutra’s


The Dutra’s were referred to me by a mutual friend, an honor I don’t take lightly.  I loved meeting this sweet family. Their oldest son Devin is a senior at Westview High School.  Like most guys his age, a big senior portrait session was not on his That Sounds Fun list, but of course his parents want some nice senior […]

Mason


Mason is a Class of 2022 senior at Lakeridge High School.  He’s an accomplished football player, but lacrosse is his passion and he’s good at it. There is no doubt he’ll play in college.  Which lucky school gets him is still being determined because he tore All The Things in his knee in January.  The past several months have included […]
