I love the fall because my families that I work with annually start calling to set up their family portrait sessions. For some of these families, this is the only time I get to see them each year. We try to hang with the Nanson’s a little more than during their yearly portrait session, but I at least know I […]
Meet the Specter Family: Dave, Sara, Naomi and Cupcake, the non-winery dog. They own Bells Up Winery in the beautiful foothills of Newberg. They are down to earth, fun, hard working, witty, and make incredible wine. My son works for Dave during the summer and on the occasional weekend when he doesn’t have water polo, swimming or golf. The Specter’s […]
Jack is a senior at Newberg High School. His little brother plays water polo with my son and that’s how we met Jack’s family. Things I knew about Jack before his senior session: 1. He’s a very good football player. 2. He’s also a very good wrestler. 3. He’s had the same girlfriend since he was a freshman. Things I […]
I love getting the beautiful Lawson family (including their adorable dog Chloe) in front of my camera. This year was no exception. We timed their session perfectly to capture the fall colors in Newberg and had fun playing in the leaves. Thank you Lawson family for another fun photo session. I sure do love you guys. #jodistilpphotography #familyportraits #fall #fallcolors […]
Cobe is a senior at Stayton High School. He loves Jesus, soccer, his golden retriever, anything from the 80’s (including some awesome 80’s rock bands), and his vintage pickup truck. He also doesn’t mind his Dad’s yellow Corvette. Cobe’s dad is one of my high school friends. We hadn’t seen each other in over twenty years, so it was pretty […]
Ben is a science loving, soccer player at Newberg High School. I loved everything about Ben’s Out of The Box senior portrait session(s). It was pouring the day of his original session, but Ben had arranged to use the chemistry lab for some portraits, so we did that piece of his senior session since it was indoors. The next sunny […]
Tarin is a senior at Newberg High School. He competes in football and track, and has a really cool Jeep. We had a ton of fun shooting his senior session at the high school at at Champoeg State Park. Thanks for sharing your morning with me Tarin. May God bless you in your senior year. #jodistilpphotography #tellyourstory #classof2018 #newberghighschool #trackandfield […]
The Welker family recently moved from the Midwest to Oregon, something I can relate to since we did that nine years ago. It was fun to swap stories about adjusting to a new climate and culture and meet their darling family. Their little man is a Dude on a Mission. He does not like to sit still and and he […]
Andrew, a senior at Sherwood High School, impressed me with his quick wit and the kindness and respect he showed to his mom and to his girlfriend. Both of these important women in his life joined him for a couple of photos during his senior session which was really special. Have a great senior year Andrew. #jodistilpphotography #classof2018 #sherwoodhighschool […]
Aiden is my running buddy Jarae’s son and he’s a senior at Newberg High School. It was such an honor to be the one to take his senior portraits. We had a fun session at Champoeg State Park. Aiden went home and Jarae and I stayed to go for a run. Win-Win. Have a great senior year Aiden. May God […]
