Hannah


Hannah is a Class of 2021 senior at C.S. Lewis Academy.  She is a talented musician, actress, and dancer.  She is also sweet, kind and so fun to work with. The weather was perfect for her senior session, not too hot and lots of fun evening light to play with. cHave the best senior year Hannah.  I pray God guides […]

Halle


Meet Halle, Class of 2021 senior at Newberg High School. Can you even get over her beautiful eyes?  Halle is a talented musician.  She writes songs, sings them angelically, and plays guitar and ukulele.  She was kind enough to perform for me during her senior session and I basically stopped working and just took it all in.  What a talent! […]

Rachel


Rachel kicked off the Class of 2021 senior portrait sessions for me. We shot her session on the family farm… one that has belonged to her family for decades.  She brought her handsome horse Dane, and while he tried to steal the spotlight, Rachel was the real star.  Have an awesome senior year Rachel! #jodistilpphotography #classof2021 #seniorportraits #sherwoodhighschool #horses #farms […]

Newberg High School Soccer Seniors: Class of 2020


My daughter Katie plays soccer for Newberg High School.  This year they had nine seniors on the varsity squad.  At the end of the school year, we did a Cap and Gown photo session to celebrate their accomplishments.  Not all nine seniors could attend the photo session, but we had fun with the ones that were able to make it. […]

Oh The Places You’ll Go: My Class of 2020 Grad and Her Friends


My daughter Katie is a Class of 2020 graduate.  She, like her classmates, found her world turned upside down when the COVID pandemic brought us to a screeching halt.  She left school on March 13th, thinking that she was just getting an extra week of spring break.  None of us could have predicted that March 13th would be her last […]

Sydney


I met Sydney when she was in early elementary school. It’s hard to wrap my head around the fact that she is now a high school graduate and headed to Linfield College to study nursing in the fall.  WELL DONE Sydney!  May God continue to lead you in this next chapter of your life. #jodistilpphotography #seniorportraits #classof2020 #capandgownphotos

Winter Portraits


I love it when I have a high school senior contact me for winter portraits. Even though it’s barren, there are still pockets of beauty, and winter portraits just feel more unique.  Liam wanted a mini session with an outdoorsy feel. We got lucky with the weather – a pocket of dry sandwiched in between days and days of rain […]

Matt


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. […]

Harper


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 […]

Josh, Em and Remi


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 […]
