The timing of their session was the absolute worst for lighting, but when you have a plane to catch you work with what you’ve got. I still love these non-traditional, dappled light images because they capture the fun the Opitz fam has together. Trying to […]

Field trips. Sleepovers. Lacrosse. Car Pool. We’ve done it all together over the years. Lucia’s dad is a winemaker so we had to incorporate […]
Sophia is a Class of 2024 senior at Newberg High School which BLOWS my mind because I remember meeting her at the park when she was not even 3 year old. I was pushing my own almost 3-year-old daughter in the swing and telling my friend over the phone that moving across the country to a new town was lonely […]

Taylor is a Class of 2024 senior at Newberg High School. She is a talented artist, loves hanging out with her friends, and spending time with her dogs. It was HOT the night of her session but she was such a trooper and the heat was worth the magical light we got for her session. Super stoked for your senior […]
The Whalen triplets gifted their Dad a photo session for his birthday/Father’s Day… such a thoughtful gift! We shot their session on a lovely summer evening and captured the essence of this sweet family along with some beautiful summer light. So fun to meet this crew and work together. May God bless you. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #summerportraits
