Jessica Thigpen Photo + Video

I’m Jessica Thigpen, a wedding, elopement, and portrait photographer + videographer based in Central Texas. I blend digital, 35mm film, Super 8mm, drone, and camcorder footage to tell stories in a nostalgic, documentary-meets-editorial way. My heart is in capturing the candid, unposed moments that feel like you—the quiet glances, the big laughs, the details that make your day uniquely yours. When I’m not behind the camera, you’ll usually find me outdoors adventuring with my family, tending to our little homestead, or planning my next trip to the mountains.

I don’t just show up with a camera and capture what happens—I weave together the real and the nostalgic. My couples get a hybrid of digital, 35mm film, and Super 8mm video that feels timeless and cinematic, while still keeping the day candid and authentic. I believe in documenting the full story, from the tiny, quiet in-between moments to the grand celebrations, so you can relive not just how your wedding looked, but how it felt.
