Happy First Birthday


This sweet family is new to Oregon from the Midwest.  Their baby boy turned one recently and they hired me to take their first professional family portraits.  What an honor.  And isn’t their little guy adorable?  Two days after their session, the leaves on that tree were all on the ground so we timed it perfectly to capture the brilliance […]

the Lawson’s


I love getting the beautiful Lawson family (including their adorable dog Chloe) in front of my camera.  This year was no exception.  We timed their session perfectly to capture the fall colors in Newberg and had fun playing in the leaves.  Thank you Lawson family for another fun photo session.  I sure do love you guys. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #fall #fallcolors […]

Cobe


Cobe is a senior at Stayton High School.  He loves Jesus, soccer, his golden retriever, anything from the 80’s (including some awesome 80’s rock bands), and his vintage pickup truck.  He also doesn’t mind his Dad’s yellow Corvette.  Cobe’s dad is one of my high school friends.  We hadn’t seen each other in over twenty years, so it was pretty […]

Ben


Ben is a science loving, soccer player at Newberg High School. I loved everything about Ben’s Out of The Box senior portrait session(s).  It was pouring the day of his original session, but Ben had arranged to use the chemistry lab for some portraits, so we did that piece of his senior session since it was indoors.  The next sunny […]

Welcome to Oregon!


The Welker family recently moved from the Midwest to Oregon, something I can relate to since we did that nine years ago.  It was fun to swap stories about adjusting to a new climate and culture and meet their darling family.  Their little man is a Dude on a Mission.  He does not like to sit still and and he […]

Andrew


Andrew, a senior at Sherwood High School, impressed me with his quick wit and the kindness and respect he showed to his mom and to his girlfriend.  Both of these important women in his life joined him for a couple of photos during his senior session which was really special.  Have a great senior year Andrew.    #jodistilpphotography #classof2018 #sherwoodhighschool […]

Aiden


Aiden is my running buddy Jarae’s son and he’s a senior at Newberg High School.  It was such an honor to be the one to take his senior portraits.  We had a fun session at Champoeg State Park.  Aiden went home and Jarae and I stayed to go for a run.  Win-Win.  Have a great senior year Aiden.  May God […]

Three Already


I met the Lindell family when their twins were about to turn one and they needed first birthday photos.  Two years and two more photo sessions later, their darling kiddos are three.  It is such an honor for me to help tell my clients’ stories through photographs and watch their families grow up. We shot their session at Brooks Wine, […]
