Gwen + Mike + Four Cool Kids = one really cool blended family. We shot their family photos on their farm on the first rainy day Oregon has seen in months. We thought we had dodged the rain showers, but as soon as I pulled into their driveway, it started raining again. We waited indoors for about 20 minutes then […]
Jordan is a class of 2021 senior at Newberg High School. I met his mom years ago at Outdoor School. We were both chaperoning for the week and got paired up as cabin moms – such a fun way to make a new friend. We’ve kept in touch over the years and it’s crazy to me that her oldest is […]
Ryan and Mandee are the type of people everyone wants as friends. They are solidly grounded in their faith which leads to a strong marriage, deep friendships, and patient, consistent parenting of their three awesome boys. We adore them. They make life look easy, even when it’s the farthest thing from easy. May the Lord continue to guide and lead […]
Mason is a class of 2021 senior at Newberg High School. He plays football and lacrosse, but lacrosse is his favorite. I’ve known Mason since he was in middle school. He is a good conversationalist, polite, thoughtful, loyal and kind. Mason works hard and looks for ways to help and serve others. His long-time girlfriend Sophia made a cameo appearance […]
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 […]
This is Whitney. Isn’t she darling? We did a mini-session together this fall just because. Because 2020 has been a hard year and because stuff like this brings joy. What’s not to love about a darling kiddo smiling in the sunshine?!? Thanks for bring some sunshine and joy to my life Whitney. You’re amazing. #jodistilpphotography #minisession #portraits
Maddy is a Class of 2021 senior at Aloha High School. A former soccer player, she pivoted her focus to track and field where she sprints, jumps and runs the relays. Maddy loved working at the local movie theater, before COVID shut it down. After Maddy graduates, she hopes to study Political Science at Oregon State University. From the little […]
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 […]
The Nanson family hired me my first year out as a newbie photographer. They put their trust in me, and have continued to hire me each year to document how their girls are growing. By now we all have the photo session down to a routine: get in, get out, get on your way. I love seeing them each year, […]
Carlee is a Class of 2021 senior at Sherwood High School. She plays volleyball, makes jewelry, and does other cool artistic things. Carlee is easy going and loads of fun. The morning of her session, we woke to dense fog. It was starting to dissipate, so we agreed to go forward with her session. As I was driving to Champoeg […]
