Too many women over 40 don’t get photographed.
Is this you?
When was the last time you had professional photos of yourself?
HAVE YOU BEEN PUTTING OFF DOING A PHOTOSHOOT FOR YOURSELF BECAUSE…
You think it looks vain to have photos of yourself.
You think you have to lose ___ more pounds.
You feel awkward or shy in front of a camera.
You don’t think anyone would want photos of you.
You have no idea what to wear or how you should pose.
You don’t really know what a branding shoot is and why you would need one.
You don’t know when you can make the time.
You’re not alone!
These are the exact same reasons
most women over 40 have!
But they faced their fears anyway and
came away with:
-
PORTRAITS THEY REALLY LOVE
Imagine you looking at that version of yourself you always knew was there - no one can take that away.
-
RECLAIMING CONFIDENCE
Blast away those negative voices in your past by reconnecting to yourself. It’s time.
-
GIFTS FOR LOVED ONES
When your kids turn 40+, they’ll have photos of you to connect with.

You are never too old...
I received a diagnosis of Parkinson’s a few short months ago. You’d think I’d be sinking into despair at the thought, but I am actually more energized and determined to proceed with my life of promise and possibilities! I am more alive now than I’ve been in years, attuned to my inner self and desires! No, this is a time to celebrate and continue dreaming!! It is not a time to give up! This is why I want to participate in this project, to show, as C.S. Lewis said, “You are never too old to set another goal or dream a new dream. ~Joanne, 67

Own who you are authentically...
Sometimes as we age and go through different seasons in our life... we become a mom, we become a wife... sometimes we lose our own selves and I think it's really important to hang on to the girl inside and own who you are authentically through all the seasons of youf life. ~ Sherine, 47

It's taken me 30 years...
It has been about 30 years since I have been professionally photographed probably because of my modeling experience when I was younger and it kind of detoured me from getting back into it just because of the harshness of the business itself... yeah. It's taken me 30 years and I'm really excited. I'm glad I did this and I'm ready to do it again. ~ Tammy, 51

To let myself be seen...
My challenge for this experience is to let myself be seen in a way that reflects who I am genuinely and authentically without the guard that happens when I can just be what someone else thinks that they should see. ~ Kristie, 47

I haven't seen myself this way in what seems like forever...
When Marj showed me the back of the camera and I saw some of the shots that she had taken of me I got really emotional because I haven't seen myself that way in what seems like forever. I don't have time to do the beautiful hair and makeup that they did and pose in the way that she helped me pose so I got really emotional. Time right now isn't something that i have much of and it felt really special and it's something I'll be able to show my kids down the road and they'll be able to remember me that way also. ~Helene, 41

I’ve always been the person behind the camera...
I’m excited to be a part of showing that women over 40 are strong, beautiful, vibrant, and truly alive.
As a breast cancer survivor, mom, widow, and new grandmother, I’ve lived a lot of life so far, and look forward to all that remains to be experienced for me into the future.
I’ve always been the person behind the camera, capturing life experiences… this would flip my standard script and give me the opportunity to see myself as I am. ~ Sara, 51

A picture of me for my family for my memorial.
We don't think of ourselves enough to just have a portrait of us for ourselves. The main reason I'm having a portrait taken is that right now I feel healthy and I want to have a picture of me for my family for my memorial. I was just at a friend's funeral and it was a lovely picture of her - a portrait of her - and I wanted something similar for myself. ~ Donna, 77
