Capturing genuine, timeless moments for couples who want their photos to feel just as real years from now as they do today.

A little about me

 

I'm Jes, the girl behind the camera and the heart behind Image1:37. I'm based near Aiken, South Carolina and, spend most of my time documenting weddings, couples, and the in-between moments that matter just as much as the big ones.


I've always been drawn to the moment-the way it looks but more importantly the way it feels. That's what led me to photography, and it continues to shape the way I approach every session and wedding day.

My Appoach


Natural. Intentional. True to you.


My approach is simple. I want your photos to feel like you.


I'm not here to overly pose you or turn your day into a photoshoot. Instead, I gently guide you when needed and take a step back when it matters most, showing real moment unfolding naturally.


From the quiet in-between glances to the big emotional moments, I am focused on capturing your day in a way that feels effortless, genuine, and timeless.

 

What you can expect


A calm, supportive presence throughout the day.


Direction when you need it. Space when you don't.


A focus on real moments, over perfect poses.


Imagery that feels natural, timeless, and true to you.

A few of my favorite things



When I’m not behind the camera, you can usually find me spending time with my husband and our three kids, tending to my garden, thrifting for little treasures, or cheering on the Carolina Gamecocks. I’m an iced coffee lover through and through, a homebody at heart, and someone who finds joy in the little things—fresh flowers, and moments that feel genuine and full of life.

 

Photos are more than just pictures-they are moments you'll hold on to forever.
