This package is perfect for extended family vacations, bachelorette groups, or any other large family/group! With an hour together to capture all the raw and unwritten moments as well as all the laughs and smiles. And I promise, no matter how large your group is, an hour is PLENTY of time. But if you are nervous and would like to add on additional time, just let me know! I have an option for that.
Sessions are held in the Navarre, FL and surrounding areas. Travel outside of 35 miles from Navarre will include a travel fee ($0.75/mile).
Session time is up to 60 minutes long. All sessions begin at sunrise or 60 minutes prior to sunset ONLY. I do not do sessions outside of these hours because sunrise and sunset are the PRIME hours for optimal lighting in your photos and how I am able to achieve such dreamy colors in your photos. Trust the process! If you are interested in a sunrise session but are unsure because of your littles, please reach out! I have all the tips and tricks to give you the confidence that your little ones will have a blast, even at a time as early as sunrise!
Wardrobe and location assistance is included in every session. You will receive a free copy of my customized style guide once you have completed your booking.
Package includes ALL (60+) hand edited high resolution images. Images are sent through an online gallery for immediate download. Turn around time on all galleries is 4 weeks, this allows me the time needed to perfectly hand edit your images so they look stunning on any wall in your home.
To book your session you must pay a non-refundable retainer of $100. The remaining balance is due at the time of session in cash. Tax is included on all online payments.

Welcome to Soul Rays by Shae.
This isn't your typical photoshoot, it's a space where you can exist, breathe, and just be. No fake poses, no forced smiles. I capture you the way light hits the mountains: real, raw, and honest.
Whether you're hiking these epic trails, wrapped up in love with your partner, chasing giggles with your kids, or wanting photos that actually show you as you are, I am here for it. I am here for you.
Let's make photos that feel like you, let's co-create some magic through my lens.

Hi, my name is Shae. I have been a candid photographer drawn to light, authentic moments, and story telling since 2018.
Based in the southern Andes of Ecuador, my art lives in the sacred spaces where nature and soul meet, the moments when one feels truly seen.
"Soul Rays" is more than just a name. Its the way I experience photography. Its more than just taking a photo, but being fully present in the moment and freezing it in time. Each session is an invitation to slow down, connect to the earth, and let my camera witness you as you are... real, radiant, and alive.
My work is inspired by the wild beauty of Vilcabamba and the energy of this land. I offer photography that feels down to earth, real, and deeply connected. I work with locals, travelers, and anyone who wants photos that actually mean something. Whether you're celebrating a milestone, honoring your journey, or just want to remember what it felt like to be here, I'm here for you, ready to create and capture your magic.
