Michelle and Josh are two people that God keeps bringing across my path. My husband first met them on the shuttle bus at the airport when they were newly married and all three of them just happened to be flying to Minnesota. A few months later, they stopped to help our daughter who had a flat tire on the side […]
Some of our best friends stepped into that grandparenting life in September and man has it been fun to see their entire family radiate joy in this new season. It was my honor to photograph the whole family over Christmas break. We got sunshine but it was COLD and windy. Little Sawyer was such a trooper, still smiling even in […]
When you have kids away at college you schedule family photos when everyone will be home, and often that’s on winter break. We squeezed a quick photo session in with the Duerr family just before Christmas and I love the moody, magical winter vibe of the photos. Have a great year Duerr fam. You know I adore you. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits […]
I met the Nienaber’s earlier this year when I took Noah’s senior portraits. After Noah’s session, his Mom hired me to photograph their family on their property later in the fall. The forecast all week was rain and then all of a sudden… the sun came out and we had the most beautiful Saturday afternoon to work with. I love […]
Look how sweet this family is… a newborn babe and that sweet toddler? I should have known they were Minnesotans when they wanted outdoor family photos with a newborn in the late fall and never even discussed the weather… not that it was really very cold but still. Minnesotans know how to do COLD. Anyway, at the session I asked, […]
It was a foggy, moody beautiful late fall morning when I photographed the Nanson family for the 13th year in a row! It’s such a privilege to be trusted to keep photographing their family year after year and their girls get more beautiful by the day! We’ve done this so many time that we’re like a well oiled machine. I […]
Another year with Team Davies and I can’t get over how much Zoey and Robbie grew up in one year. They grow in confidence and kindness each year too. Just the absolute sweetest family that I love so much. Matt and Sarai – you’re doing an amazing job raising your kids. I just love you all. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits
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 […]
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 […]
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
