WHAT WE DO & WHY
At the heart of what we do is a deep passion for preserving the unforgettable moments in young athletes' lives. We believe in capturing more than just a game—we capture the emotions, the hard-fought victories, the lessons learned, and the bonds formed on and off the field. Our mission is to ensure that these fleeting moments, which might otherwise go unnoticed, are forever etched in time. Through our expert photography and videography, we create high-quality, lasting memories that remind athletes and their families of the challenges overcome, the triumphs celebrated, and the growth achieved. We do this because we know that these memories aren’t just snapshots—they are powerful stories of perseverance, teamwork, and personal achievement that deserve to be remembered and cherished for a lifetime.
MEET YOUR PHOTOGRAPHER
My name is Jason Knippers, and I’m the owner and Chief Memory Maker at Sideline Media, a family-owned business based in Brandon, MS. With over 30 years of award-winning experience in video production and high school and youth sports photography, I bring a deep love for capturing the moments that matter most. As a former youth pastor and an educator, as well as a parent of teenage athletes, I understand firsthand the importance of helping young people celebrate who they are and who they’re becoming. My passion lies in preserving the pivotal moments in their lives—the ones that build confidence, character, and lasting memories. At Sideline Media, it’s not just about taking photos or videos; it’s about telling the stories that these young athletes will carry with them forever.
OUR HISTORY
Sideline Media's story begins with our founder Jason. Jason began his sports videography and photography journey in high school, serving as the football team videographer and high school yearbook editor for Jonesboro-Hodge High School. Before launching Sideline Media, Jason captured memories for the churches and schools he served, as well as his three daughters. After countless requests from parents and friends, Jason turned his passion into a business, driven by one vision: “I want parents to be in the moment at a game, cheering on their son or daughter. I don't want them to have to worry about getting the perfect shot or being so behind the lens they miss the the moment.” At Sideline Media, it is our privilege to come alongside you to help capture the memories so they can live on long after the final buzzer has sounded.
Our Investment
At Sideline Media, we’ve made substantial investments in cutting-edge equipment, software, and technologies to ensure that the quality of our photos and videos is second to none. But beyond just having the right tools, we are also experienced storytellers. We understand that youth sports are about more than just action—they’re about emotion, passion, and growth. Our goal is to tell your child’s and their team’s story through our images and videos, capturing the unforgettable moments, big and small, that make these memories last a lifetime. With our expertise, professionalism, and access to prime locations on the field, we ensure we get you the very best shots while you focus on enjoying the game.
