JOIN ME FOR THIS SPECIAL PROJECT!

      I recently turned 50 and far from feeling “over the hill” I actually feel like I’m just coming into my own! There are more women aged 50+ than ever before, and it’s time to celebrate the beauty and wisdom of the women in this sisterhood.

      Join me on an adventure to share this common bond of rocking 50+ years on this earth!

      I invite you to experience a very special photoshoot experience, culminating in a gallery-style exhibition and celebration of women and their stories. That’s right! We’re going to celebrate all year long and then we’re going to have a party at an art gallery to celebrate 50 incredible women. 

       

      Will you be one of them?

      WHY OVER 50, WHY ME & WHY NOW?

      As a long time portrait photographer with a background in museum curation, I’ve always been cognizant of the long term legacy we leave behind and how important it is to truly connect through images.

      Then when I turned 50 at the end of 2019, I felt a definite shift, in a good way… like a veil had been lifted, like I’ve just been inducted into a powerful secret sisterhood. I think this will be my most fun decade yet!

      So now I want to celebrate this milestone and this sisterhood and create a community of inspired, wise, beautiful women. This is about SO much more than a pretty picture… I want you to truly connect with your essence and have a daily reminder that YOU are incredible and valuable. 

      WHO CAN TAKE PART IN THIS PROJECT?

      I’m looking for women aged 50+ with all shapes and sizes, backgrounds and experiences who are willing to connect with me, tell their stories and share their wisdom!

      Frequently Asked Questions
      How much does it cost to participate in the 50 over 50 Project?
      The participation fee is $249 and allows us to hold your date and book in your hair and makeup artist. It also covers your consultation, photoshoot, expert retouching, one image of your choice (matted fine art print plus matching digital), and a ticket to the 50 Over 50 Portrait Gallery Exhibit & Celebration.
      What if I want more than one image?
      Once you've seen your images, you are more than welcome to purchase more. Individual images are $250 a la carte (including matted fine art print and matching digital) and our image bundles offer substantial savings and start at $690 for 3 images, $990 for 5, etc. As a bonus for participating in this project, you'll receive your exhibition print with the purchase of any image bundle. We do take credit cards and offer payment plans. With that said though, there is no hard sell to buy more. We want every one of our clients to feel thrilled with their experience. You only buy what you love!
      Where will the shoot take place?
      All sessions will take place at our studio in Carnegie. It is on the 2nd floor, so if you have any mobility issues, please mention them and we will make arrangements to shoot in a space on the first floor.
      Tell me more about the Portrait Exhibition & Celebration!
      This event will be held at an Art Gallery and serve light hors d'oeuvres and refreshments as we showcase all of the project participants and their stories! We also plan to publish a studio magazine showcasing all 50 women! Details will be announced once we get closer to booking all 50 spots.
      What should I wear?
      We'll guide you on what to wear during the consultation and even hook you up with a stylist if you like. It all depends on how YOU want to be photographed... casual & cozy to glitzy & glam! Your session includes up to 4 outfit changes so there's lots of opportunity to mix it up!
      Can I include someone else in my session?
      Absolutely! I'm all about connection and relationships so it makes perfect sense to bring in someone who is important to you. It's just $150 each additional person for hair and makeup, or $50 if all they need is a light makeup/powder (this includes men and children aged 7+).
      Can I refer a friend over 50 to also be a part of this project?
      Of course! Please invite as many people as you would like! It will make the exhibition party even that much more fun to be able to experience it with your friends!
      What if I need to reschedule?
      We know life happens! With that said, when you book your appointment, your hair and makeup artist is also booked in just for you. You may reschedule at no charge with at least 7 days notice. If we have less than 7 days notice or if it's a second time rescheduling, we do need to charge a $150 rescheduling fee.
      I'm ready to book my date! What do I do next?
