It’s a Saturday morning in November. 25 people from all over the metro area have gotten up early, fixed their hair, put on their fancy clothes, and headed to the family farm for an 8:30 a.m. multi-generation family photo session. 8:30 a.m. on a Saturday! The weather is NOT playing nicely with others. It’s dumping rain with heavy winds […]
Taryn is a Class of 2026 senior at Newberg High School. We had a beautiful night for her senior photos – the sky popped off – and her truck was so shiny and clean. She wanted authentic photos and I think we nailed it. Thanks Taryn for coming with clear ideas of what you wanted to creating and working with […]
Ella is a Class of 2026 senior at Newberg High School. She loves to read… so she brought her favorite books to her session. She’s an accomplished clarinet player… so she brought her clarinet to her session. And she even played for me. SWOON. Such a talent. She has a lot of pets and loves animals… so I went to […]
The White’s were referred to me by a mutual friend. It was so fun to meet them and their adorable pup and son. We did a Simple Offering – short and sweet – and captured some sweet moments in this fun season of their life. Thank you White family for reaching out. I loved working with you. May God bless […]
Ben is a Class of 2026 senior at Newberg High School. He plays golf and basketball for the high school and is a fun, laidback guy. We shot his session on a fall morning that was supposed to be rain free but it started drizzling 20 minutes into his session. We were able to still finish his session and the […]
Austin is a Class of 2026 senior at Sherwood High School and the younger brother of a senior I photographed a couple of years ago. It’s an honor not lost on me to be invited back to take another round of senior portraits for a family. Austin wanted an urban/grunge feel for his photos and we found the perfect spot […]
Year 2 with this sweet family. They exude patience, love, joy and what a beautiful morning we had for their photo session! May God bless you Smith crew. I love spending time with you. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #familyoffive
Jackson is a Class of 2026 senior at Newberg High School but his first two years of high school he was at C.S. Lewis Academy. He designed his letterman’s jacket as a tribute to both schools and I love how it turned out. Jackson plays football and rugby and loves his dogs. We were able to incorporate his passions into […]
Haley is a Class of 2026 senior at Aloha High School. Several years ago I photographed her older sister but then lost touch with their family. When Haley reached out it took me a minute to put the connection together, especially since she found me through one of her volleyball teammates that I photographed this year. The internet really makes […]
It’s hard to believe but I started photographing the Hall family in 2014 and I’m pretty sure we’ve done a photo session annually for 12 straight years.. almost all the photo sessions shot at the same state park. What a joy to watch your family grow and provide these annual snaps for this crew. Love you Hall Family! #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits […]
