Quick and Easy


I love the Simple Offering mini-session for my families who want a quick and easy solution to family portraits.  The Hastin were so photogenic and easy to work with that they were in and out in fifteen minutes, something I’m sure all those men in the family appreciated. Have a great year Hastin family.  I really enjoyed meeting you. #jodistilpphotography […]

Harper


Our neighbors just had a baby.  Sweet Harper is all sorts of darling, with her red hair, pretty eyes and big expressions.  I loved hanging out with them for a little photo session after her arrival. They are the greatest family… loads of personality and just so fun.  And how cute are their kiddos’ bedrooms? We’re so lucky to have […]

Another Year with the Nanson’s


The Nanson’s were some of my first clients.  We’ve been doing the Fall Family Photo thing every year for six years.  I can’t remember a year where the forecast cooperated with us, but somehow we always dodge a rain shower and are able to shoot their session as scheduled.  I love seeing them every year and can’t get over how […]

Urban Fall Photo Session


The Byars family couldn’t remember how they heard about me or got my number, but we were pleasantly surprised at all the little commonalities and connections we had.  I love how a very big world can be made small with just a few touch points.  It was lovely to meet you all and I sure had fun at our session. […]

Josh, Em and Remi


Josh and Emily are some of our Big’s.  What’s a Big, you ask?  A Big is a quasi-adopted adult child who has spent enough time with our family to graft themselves into it.  We have five Original Big’s.  They have all gone on to get married, adopt dogs, buy houses, and are starting to have babies. It’s pretty exciting to […]

Troopers


The weather forecast for the Hall’s family photo session was rain showers and cold.  We chatted about rescheduling, but Oregon fall weather is so unpredictable, so we decided to go for it.  It was definitely not ideal conditions for a photo session with a toddler and a preschooler, but the Hall family were such troopers. Jason and Melissa came prepared […]

Baby Girl


Oh baby!  I was so happy to hear that Rachita and Kunal were expanding their family. It was such a privilege to see this sweet family twice in a matter of weeks.  Rachita and Kunal are as genuine and kind as they come. They love each other, are great parents, and are just all around fun to be around. And […]

Macartney Family


Those Macartney’s are one cute family.  I mean seriously…  We had a perfect fall day for their session and a gorgeous location to grab some pretty family photos. Thank you for trusting me with these memories.  I had a great time. May God bless you in the coming year. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #familyoffive #fallportraits #oregonwinecountry

Combining Family and Senior Portraits


The Sellke’s were overdue for family portraits and their daughter needed senior portraits.  She didn’t want a fussy senior session so we combined a family photo session with some senior portraits.  It was a win-win for everyone.  What a great idea.  Have the best year Annika!  It was great to meet you and your family. #jodistilpphotography #seniorportraits #familyportraits #classof2020 #newberghighschool

Worth Waiting For


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 […]
