IMMERSE YOURSELF IN

 A Guided Experience Fusing Water,  Photography & You

Experience the transformative power of underwater photography, unlocking a world of self-discovery and bearing witness to your brilliance.

Your body is whispering its needs — it's time to listen.

You're undeniably a badass, but it feels elusive. You've moved mountains, conquered challenges, and achieved it all—but somehow—you feel like something is slipping through your fingers. 

Life has become a relentless sprint.

You push through—onto the next thing to feel whole, accepted, worthy, resilient, powerful, confident, and the list goes on and on. You tie yourself in knots to hold it all together, ignoring the nagging feeling that you're teetering on the edge of falling apart. 

It's time to relax into yourself and listen.

Together, we'll create a sanctuary where you can unwind and witness all that you are—a space to reclaim and rediscover your brilliance, free from the weight of the world. 

Discover Underwater Portrait Sessions

It’s so much more than a portrait

— IT’S WITNESSING YOURSELF


Experience Freedom with a Somatic Underwater Portrait.

This unique experience creates a one-of-a-kind portrait — it also transforms your view of yourself and your place in the world.

I’ve created a safe space for you to reconnect with your body and soul through relaxation, mindfulness, and self-discovery.

Suspended underwater, free from the weight of the world, experience the alchemy of self-expression and self-discovery with an underwater somatic portrait session. 

 My body was pleading for a break, but my head resisted. I had spiraled into a profound, soul-crushing burnout. Somatics, water, and photography gave me the space to reconnect back to myself.

Now, I offer you that space.

CLIENT TESTIMONIALS

The photos are truly breathtaking!

"The photos are truly breathtaking! The photos are breathtaking! The natural beauty has me see myself in a totally different light. Thank you for helping me on my journey on capturing more of who I am." — SAM, 2023

I see the powerful woman I feel inside

"An underwater water photo sounded fun. I wanted to try something different. I was going through a separation and some other intense things. I found myself sharing all of it with Rahshia. I felt she really understood. The photo she created made me cry. I saw the powerful woman I feel inside me - I can now see her. I had no idea how much a single photo changed me. " — JAMIE, 2022

I felt seen & acknowledged for who I am

"Thank you! I don’t know how you did it - I felt seen and acknowledged for who I am. I have never ever before in my life seen pictures of me that are so true to who I am. Photographs I look at and can actually say, “I love her, and I like her. Yeah, she’s got some flaws, and she’s got some secrets. But you know what? She’s alright. She has a light in her to share with the world.” — JOANNA, 2023


Rahshia Sawyer - Somatic Underwater Photographer

HI, I'M RAHSHIA

& My Studio is Underwater.

And I knew it the first time I dove in over a decade ago. 

I discovered the power of underwater photography, honing my skills to create a refuge for complex emotions.

My photos have been exhibited and collected all over the world—unraveling the depths of desires and feelings beneath the surface.

I'm excited to share underwater somatic portraiture—an experience offering freedom from gravity, providing space for expression, nurturing, feeling, and freedom.

Prepare for Immersion!

Thank you for inviting me into your inbox—I’m truly honored to have you here. I’m Rahshia, an underwater portrait artist who believes there’s a deeper story within every woman just waiting to be recognized, celebrated, and captured.

I’ve always been drawn to the quiet world beneath the water’s surface. There’s something beautifully honest about that weightless space—ease and freedom in the way our bodies move, how the fabric flows, and how light dances across our skin. In that suspended moment, all the labels and expectations fade away, leaving only the essence of who you truly are.

My underwater portraiture sessions are about helping you see yourself with kinder eyes. I’ve guided countless women into this serene underwater realm, watching them emerge glowing, sometimes with tears of joy, sometimes with quiet smiles. Each one has a story of growth, transformation, or simple self-appreciation—and it’s my privilege to help tell it.

Before you dive deeper, I invite you to take a moment for yourself. Relax with this curated playlist to ease into the calm, reflective spirit of what we’ll create together. Let the music guide you to a place where you feel lighter, free, and beautifully present.

I’m grateful you’re here, and I look forward to exploring your unique story—together.

With warmth and gratitude,
