Matt is a senior at Mountainside High School. Matt plays lacrosse and loves photography and art. He wanted an urban themed senior photo session with some sharp contrast in the final images. Matt’s mom was looking for scenic images with fall colors, and a couple of photos of mom and son together. His cute dog even made a cameo appearance. […]
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 […]
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 […]
Maisie, you are the sweetest little pumpkin and such a trooper to go along with our nod to Ann Geddes with our vegetable props. You have the coolest parents. Artistic, intelligent, witty, musical… Your Dad can build stuff. Your Mom sings like an angel. They preserve heirlooms that tell stories and this is evident in your nursery and in your […]
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 […]
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 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 […]
Grady is a senior at Southridge High School. He plays water polo and swims, loves his labradoodle Ace, is a huge Timbers fan, enjoys spending time with his girlfriend, and is deciding between a career in engineering or business. Grady wanted three backdrops for his senior portrait session: water, urban, and forest. We were able to get all of it […]
Ben is the coolest kid. A senior at McMinnville High School, he spent the last year of his life studying abroad in South America through a Rotary scholarship. He now speaks fluent Spanish and has broad cultural experience that he plans to use in his future career flying airplanes for humanitarian relief. I mean c’mon! How cool is that? Ben […]
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 […]
