Get to know me...
Hi, I’m Shaylee — the photographer behind Simply Renea.
I’m a Louisiana-based photographer, romance book lover, wife, and dog mom to Bear. I love stormy skies and moody weather… unless I’m shooting a session, then I suddenly want full sunshine.
My photography style is warm, emotional, and centered around real connection. I’m passionate about capturing the genuine moments — the laughter, chaos, happy tears, and everything in between — in a way that feels honest and timeless.
Simply Put - My life is full of Love.

"Absolutely LOVE Shaylee, if you’re uncomfortable in front of a camera she’ll make you feel so much better! I’ve used her multiple times for an array of occasions and I’m beyond pleased everytime! From gender reveals to newborns to four legged family shots I’ve never been disappointed. Her editing and communication is highly professional."
Ariel & Scott
"I cannot say enough good things about my experience. She made everything feel easy and natural, and I never felt awkward in front of the camera. She captured moments and emotions so perfectly, and the final photos honestly brought tears to my eyes. If you’re looking for someone talented, kind, and patient, she is the one!"

"I have had pictures done by Shaylee twice now. Both times, she was absolutely wonderful with my kids and we had a blast. She is very communicative with time frames and has always been on time. Highly recommend!!"

"Shaylee made us feel SO comfortable and guided my husband and I into looking our best. We both had a lot of fun (despite being nervous in front of the camera). We have gotten so many compliments on the photos we took and it’s all thanks to Shaylee!"

"I have had the opportunity and pleasure to work with simply Renea photography twice and both times have been so wonderful! Lots of laughs and good vibes with her! She also was so pumped and hyped me up the whole time! She got my photos back so quickly and had me waiting on the edge of my seat to see them. They came out beautifully both times! I can’t recommend her enough!"
