I met Jordan when she was 4 years old. Her mom Milly and I were both in the 4 year old preschool line, anxious about dropping our babies off at school for the first time, and we struck up a conversation. Before we knew it, coffee dates and play dates became part of families’ routines. Our friendship has spanned 14 […]
Kati is a Class of 2022 senior at Yamhill Carlton High School. Everything she does, she does with excellence. A highly decorated athlete, Kati plays soccer, basketball and softball. Her softball skills have earned her a slew of All League and All State honors and she still has a year of high school left. Kati is also a member of […]
Stephanie and Jim own Oliver Springs Vineyard in Newberg. I got to take photos of them in their vineyard with their wine AND their fur babies. We had beautiful light, beautiful people, beautiful dogs, and delicious wine. What’s not to love? If you’re in Newberg/Dundee and want to taste some incredible wine, give them a call to set up a […]
I have know Emily since she was a 4 year old preschool classmate with my daughter. I can’t even wrap my head around the fact that they are all seniors this year. Emily is kind and sweet. She loves theatre and is a talented musician. She plays the trumpet and the piano, and sings in the choir. We shot her […]
I had the privilege of photographing Drew for his senior photos last summer. Now he’s about to head off to college (All The Feels) and so I got to meet the rest of his family during a pre-leaving-for-college family photo session. What a great crew they are! Thanks for trusting me with your family portraits. I pray God leads your […]
For years the Duggan’s lived on the same cul de sac as us, and then they moved out to the country. It’s been fun to stay in touch with random sightings at the store or if one of my kids gets Derek as their teacher. They are such a great family… solid, down to earth people raising good humans and […]
It doesn’t get any better than photographing one of the families that you do life, side by side with. Our daughters are best friends. We’ve done college tours together. Girls trip. Couples dates. This family is the real deal. I’m so lucky to count them as our dear friends. Love you so much Lunz Family! #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #summerportraits #familyofsix #fourkids […]
One of the best gifts adult kids give their parents is an extended family photo session, especially if there are grand-babies involved. This was a special family session since the family is scattered across the United States. Time together, especially after COVID isolation, is precious. Thank you Brown Family for trusting me to capture this memory. May God bless you […]
I first photographed the Varuska’s when their daughter’s were turning one. I was brand new in the photography world and they took a chance on me. In the past 8 years, I have photographed their family on a regular basis, watching their beautiful daughters grow up. We shot this year’s session on private farmland owned by their family. The setting […]
I can’t believe we’re in this place, but Alli and her Squad are officially seniors. We did a golden hour mini-session to start off their senior year. Of course it just happened to be scheduled on one of the 110 degree days and it was HOT HOT HOT and so humid down by the water! The girls were such troopers […]
