I’m Thisbe Grace, a professional photographer and creative director with over 20 years of experience capturing timeless imagery for top magazines, museums, hotels, and brands throughout Dallas, Costa Rica, and beyond. My work blends classic artistry with soulful storytelling — creating images for people and brands who value authenticity, beauty, and meaning.
After two decades based in Dallas, I’ve recently returned to my hometown of Norman, Oklahoma, to be closer to family and support my children through college — while continuing to maintain active studio bases in Dallas and on the Papagayo Coast of Costa Rica. With a dedicated team in Dallas and monthly dates on location, we serve both regions with the signature TG JN energy that clients have come to love.
Throughout my career, I’ve been trusted by world-class clients — from The Ritz-Carlton and Four Seasons to 100’s of in features with Inside Weddings, The Knot, Modern Luxury, D Weddings, Grace Ormonde, InStyle Magazine and more. I work with clients over decades and multiple weddings for legacy families. Today, I take on a select number of portrait, brand, and lifestyle commissions each year, focusing on projects aligned with my vision: intentional, elegant, and grounded in purpose.
Alongside photography, I’m the co-owner and marketing director of a boutique hotel and beach club on the Papagayo Coast, where I also host wellness retreats inspired by nearly 30 years of yoga practice and a deep passion for ocean conservation. These experiences continue to shape my creative approach — rooted in presence, intuition, and a love of natural light and connection.
As a mom of three, I understand the value of time and intentional living. I no longer say yes to everything — only to projects that resonate deeply. Whether it’s a refined portrait session in Norman, a brand story in Dallas, or a destination collaboration in Costa Rica, I bring calm professionalism, creative direction, and heartfelt artistry to every space I enter.
I love connecting with people who are expanding their vision — through photography, branding, podcasts, books, or beyond. If something in my work resonates, let’s begin a conversation and see where it leads.
