The Paulson’s hired me in late November to take their family portraits in mid-December. And then Snowpocalypse happened. So we rescheduled into Oregon’s rainiest winter on record. And re-scheduled. And re-scheduled. Then wised up and waited until July because July is 99% sunny in Oregon. We had a beautiful evening for their photo session – well worth the wait to […]
I met Ashley through running. (We’re in the same van on our Hood to Coast team so our friendship went deep immediately cause we lived out of a van together for 24 hours.) It’s no surprise that Ashley is Ah-Maz-INg. Smart, driven, compassionate with a quick wit, Ashley excels at everything she sets her mind to. Running? Oh she’s fast. […]
Photographing this darling family reminded me of how fun toddlers and preschoolers are. Busy, curious, always learning, always asking questions, fluctuating emotions… the world is still so fresh and new. I loved my time with this adorable family. #jodistilpphotography #tellyourstory #familyportraits #toddlers #preschoolers #familyoffour
My kids don’t love having their portraits taken, but when it snowed hard in the valley (a rare treat) I begged them to give me thirty minutes to snap a few images of them. I’m so happy they complied. I love how the images turned out. And I love my babies. They are growing so fast. […]
The providers (doctors and Physician Assistants) at Orthopedic Northwest in Tualatin are kind, funny, and smart. It was a privilege to photograph them individually and in groups. If you live locally and need a good orthopedic doc or PA, look them up. #orthopedicsurgeons #contemporarycorporate #professionalheadshots
Claire is graduating from nursing school at the top of her class. She is smart and kind – just the combo you want for a nurse. Congratulations Claire! #nursingschool #nursegraduate #collegegrad #nursingschool
Cindy and John celebrated 40 years of marriage this year. What a legacy to leave their children and grandchildren. I had the privilege of photographing Cindy and John, along with their two sons and their families to commemorate this milestone. The morning of their session was abnormally cold for the Willamette Valley, with temps in the mid twenties, but incredibly […]
McKenna’s “little” brother has been good friends with my son since we moved to Newberg more than eight years ago. The family resemblance is strong! I’m so used to relating to McKenna’s family via Raleigh and water polo that it was strange and super fun to spend time with McKenna and her mom doing something unrelated to water polo. McKenna […]
I met Gracie the summer before her 7th grade year. It’s crazy to me that she’s a senior now and about to launch into adulthood. Isn’t she lovely? We got so lucky with the weather for her senior session. It was cold, but sunny and so beautiful for a winter day in Oregon. Gracie didn’t complain about the cold and […]
I met Erin years ago when she worked at the gym in the childcare area. When she got engaged to Nick she asked me to shoot her engagement photos. I then had the privilege of photographing their wedding. It was with great joy that I agreed to do another photo session documenting a big event for them: a maternity session for their […]
