The Specter’s took a chance on me the first year I was in business and they have hired me every year since then to take their family photos. I have had the privilege of watching their daughter Naomi grow up and she gets more beautiful every year. Their fledgling vineyard and wine business 8 years ago is not just off […]
Family portraits on a summer evening with that warm golden light are basically my favorite. We chose a rural field as the location for the Hinton’s family photos and had a great time getting acquainted and enjoying a perfect Oregon summer night. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #summerportraits #familyofsix
I photographed the Boston family on their family property where they raised their son and now his children come “home” to make memories with them as well. I absolutely love being able to have the location be part of the story telling in a portrait session. We finally caught a break in the spring rain to shoot the session and […]
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 […]
I’ve known Tony for roughly 7 years. He’s the assistant principal assigned to our family at the high school. Over the years of Mr. Buckner supervising our four kids, he has called me to have fun chats. Difficult chats. And everything in between. Tony knows how to hold your kids accountable to their actions while simultaneously challenging them to be […]
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 […]
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 […]
I know Kamren from years ago when we both worked out at the same gym. She moved just far enough out of town that we lost touch of each other so I was thrilled when she called to schedule family photos and… (wait for it)… maternity photos for the family she a gestational carrier for! Kamren is a mom of […]
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 […]
