Been photographing Cyndi and her crew for years. Got to take Cyndi and TJ’s engagement photos. It was an honor to photograph their entire blended tribe for the first time. With all those gorgeous adult children my guess is that the family is going to increase in number every year. We’re gonna need to rent bleachers pretty soon! Also… there […]
Have you ever wrestled with the question: “What do I buy my parents for Christmas or their birthday?” How about a photo session. This lucky Nana received a family photo session, centered around her, as a gift from her kids. The original date of their photo session was horrid weather: dumping rain, wind and maybe 37 degrees. We rescheduled and […]
This summer I had the unique opportunity to photograph BOTH sides of Mark and Sarah’s extended family groups. Mark’s family was in town visiting in July. Sarah’s out-of-town family was visiting in August. It was such a joy to meet ALL their family and celebrate with them in how richly blessed they are. Such great groups of people! Here’s Sarah’s […]
One of the best gifts adult kids give their parents is an extended family photo session, especially if there are grand-babies involved. This was a special family session since the family is scattered across the United States. Time together, especially after COVID isolation, is precious. Thank you Brown Family for trusting me to capture this memory. May God bless you […]
Mandy contacted me in the fall to ask about my availability to photograph their entire family around Christmas time. They were traveling in from different parts of the country and everything was pending COVID restrictions. Not to mention Oregon winters are notoriously rainy and not very scenic by late December. Thankfully we had a rainless morning (in the midst of […]
This is the second time I’ve had the privilege of photographing the extended Johnson family. It’s crazy how much the kids grew and changed in a handful of years. Rain was not in the forecast for their session. And yet… we got everybody set up for the first photo and the skies unleashed. We ran for cover and contemplated our […]
Each time I sat down to work with these family photos, I mumbled, “OKAY CUTE!” at least once or twice. I mean… seriously. They are just so cute. And fun. And nice. Plus Grandma GG is total goals. Isn’t she stunning and fun with her pink hair and her awesome style? It was sunny but FREEZING and super windy, so […]
A few years ago, I got to photograph my friend Jarae’s extended family on her side. This summer, I got to photograph Jarae’s hubby’s side of the family. Aren’t they cute? Thanks for trusting me with your family photos. I sure do love you guys! #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #extendedfamilyportraits
I love it when my families ask me to photograph their extended family. What an honor to document the heritage, love and legacy of a family. Stephanie and I started the process of scheduling their multi-generation family photo session in early June and somehow managed to drag the process out all summer long. The photos were worth waiting for. They […]
The Sturgis family is full of joy. It’s what I noticed right away when I met them and their laughter, joy and love for each other carried throughout their entire photo session. Family is such a gift. I was so blessed to work with this family who clearly understood and treasured the gift of each other. Thank you Sturgis family […]
