For years, I stayed behind the scenes—focused on family, shrinking myself to fit in, keeping quiet to avoid being “too much.” I rarely saw women like me—40s, 50s, 60s+—celebrated for their strength, beauty, or wisdom.
When I finally picked up my camera and followed my creative spark, everything changed—not just for me, but for the women I photographed.
I saw how they lit up during a session. I saw the shift in their posture, their energy, their confidence. I saw them finally feeling seen—and I knew I had to give that gift to more women.
That’s why I created 40 Over 40: a transformational portrait experience for women who’ve lived, led, loved, lost, and risen again.
Because you deserve to be seen—not just as a role or a title, but as the powerful woman you’ve become.
I can't wait to create something extraordinary for you.
