the Morgan Family


I met the Morgan family for the first time this year and they were so fun to work with.  They opted for a mini-session (Simple Offering) at the winery where Gabi works.  It was short, sweet, and fun.  What else can you want from family portraits?  Have a great year Morgan’s! #jodistilpphotography #portraits #familyportraits #fallportraits

Seth


Seth is a Class of 2023 senior at St. Paul High School.  Baseball is his passion so we started at his home field on a GORGEOUS fall morning.  Seth also plays guitar so we made sure to get some snaps of him with guitar. Seth is smart and handy… currently working on fixing up his Grandpa’s old truck.  If he […]

Byars Family + Jonah


It was great to reconnect with the Byars family after a couple of years apart.  Jonah is now a senior at Lincoln High School so we did a family mini-session and then Jonah and I took off to shoot his senior portrait session.  We had a beautiful fall morning to work with and Portland was showing off! Thank you Byars […]

The Hall’s 2022


Another year with the Hall family.  So surreal to think I started photographing them when Eleanor was a baby.  I look forward to this session every year.  Amazing people with so much love for each other and the world.  Also bonus to Melissa and Jason for randomly breaking out in the EXACT same song from a musical based on one […]

Ethan


Ethan is a Class of 2023 senior at St. Paul High School.  He plays baseball.  Loves his car. Is an entrepreneur with his own design and apparel company. He worked two jobs durning the summer – ATTA KID – and was just so fun to get to know. We shot his session on a perfect early fall evening and got to […]

the Hawney’s


Teachers: Unappreciated. Underpaid. Influencers. World Changers. A gift from God.  We all can tell stories with specific details of how a teacher or a coach impacted our lives.  Jessica Hawney is one of the greatest teachers we’ve met.  Jessica SEES greatness in kids.  She SEES past their imperfections, past their road blocks, past their resistance to WHO they actually are […]

That Year Went Fast


I photograph the Williams’ family every year.  This year we added the boys’ grandma for a couple of photos and of course Rizzo, their big furry boy. When we scheduled this year’s shoot neither of us could believe a full year had already gone by.  It truly feels like a handful of months ago we were shooting their 2020 family […]

Reconnecting


It was SO fun to reconnect with Kamren after several years of not seeing her.  When we used to see each other at the gym, our kids were little babies in the childcare.  And now look at her beautiful, on their way to almost grown children.  And she hasn’t aged a day in ten years.  I want to know her […]

the Banke Family


The Banke Family is the coolest.  The whole family gives off a super chill and laid back vibe. It was freezing the morning of their session and no one – including the baby – was phased by any of it.  Alex and Hailey are awesome and helpful older siblings.  Everett and Lucy are the cutest set of Littles ever.  And […]

Jacob


Jacob is a Class of 2022 senior at Newberg High School.  He plays basketball and likes to hang out with his friends.  Our original plan for Jacob’s photo session was to go out to Champoeg State Park so we could get some rustic/woods photos, but it was raining non-stop the entire week of Jacob’s photo session with the exception of […]
