JESSICA THOMAS

The birth of a child is one of the life changing events of any parent's life. It is beautiful, raw and real. There is no photo more genuine than the reaction on a parent's face as their child is first born. As a birth photographer and doula my goal is to empower families.

Jessica Thomas began her doula training in 2013 while living in Denver, CO. She received her certification from CAPPA in record time as being backups to other experienced doulas in the area. After a year Jess bought a “fancy” camera in anticipation of her second pregnancy and birth. She became friends with birth photographers in the area and jumped on the opportunity learn all she could. In 2015 Jessica’s family relocated to the Pittsburgh area and jumped right into the birth community, offering her doula services and testing out her new birth photography skills. By the end of the year Jessica officially started offering birth photography fulltime with her doula services. She is the most experienced birth photographer in the Pittsburgh and surrounding areas. She is married to her husband Larrin, has two children and an adorable destructive Goldendoodle. Her favorite past times are cooking, but also eating out, snowboarding, playing guitar, and hiking.
