This was my third year photographing the Buisman family. Aren’t they darling? I just can’t get over how quickly their Littles are growing up and turning into adorable conversationalists. It’s crazy to me how bonds can be formed in an hour once a year, but I seriously love my clients and their sweet kiddos. Thanks for another fun year you […]
Zach is Class of 2021 senior at Newberg High School. A talented lacrosse player, he plans to attend the University of Idaho to study athletic training and play on their Division I lacrosse team. Way to go Zach! He also did not want a long, drawn out senior photo session so we went with the Simple Offering and he was […]
Paityn is a Class of 2021 college graduate from Warner Pacific. She’s also a softball player who earned honors cords for her high academic achievement while playing college athletics. What a stud. COVID gave her an extra year of eligibility so she’s continuing on at Warner Pacific to get her masters degree. Congrats on all you have accomplished so far […]
I love photographing my clients in locations that are important to them. The Shipman’s invited me to their home nestled in the heart of Chehalem Mountain. Situated in the middle of a rolling meadow surrounded by thick forest, it was such a great spot to photograph this awesome family and their pets. Have a great year Shipman family. I have […]
The Brown’s were referred to me by mutual friends, which is the highest compliment anyone can pay me. Turns out our worlds are very connected, and yet we had never met. I loved meeting them and their darling kiddos. And the lush green meadow was a fun spot for spring portraits. Thanks Brown family for a fun morning. May God […]
Aren’t these three cousins cute? They don’t live in the same state, which makes their time together even sweeter. We did a quick photo session over Spring Break and happened to get some pretty spring blooms along the way. #jodistilpphotography #cousins #familyportraits #springportraits
Mandy contacted me in the fall to ask about my availability to photograph their entire family around Christmas time. They were traveling in from different parts of the country and everything was pending COVID restrictions. Not to mention Oregon winters are notoriously rainy and not very scenic by late December. Thankfully we had a rainless morning (in the midst of […]
I’m so honored when a client hires me and then tells me, “We’ve never had professional family portraits taken” or “it’s been years since we’ve done professional portraits.” The Cannon family fell into that category, so it was pretty awesome to get some fun snaps of their family in the fun location they chose, in spite of the cold and […]
Lucas is a Class of 2021 senior at Newberg High School. Lucas is an avid outdoorsman, an athlete, and hard working. He wanted to have his senior session be a small reflection of the things he loves: the water, his dog, his family, and the fun urban-grunge part of his small town. Winter sessions in Oregon are always risky with […]
Jane is a Class of 2021 senior at Lincoln High School. Like every other Class of 2021 student, she had to adapt her dreams and expectations for her senior year to Portland’s COVID restricted life. She is honest about the disappointment, but still filled with joy and that big, beautiful smile. I loved being around her uplifting spirit and easy-going […]
