I generally do not post about straight portraits shoot that I do in the studio, but I met this woman last week, and apart from really hitting it off, she was such a powerhouse, so vibrant and energetic; I adore working with that sort of person, I guess it offsets my shy quiet side ๐
Anyway, we had a wonderful morning together and I took so fabulous images, even if I do say so myself. She loved them and they have been popping up all over Social Media causing quite a bit of interest, I have also been working with my mentor and between the two I have seemingly been gaining a bit of traction, so let’s see what happens.
Karen put this post up on her Facebook Wall, I adore it, so Karen too…
To all my female friends over 40 years of “age”… Most of us are going through to the next stage of our lives. We are at that age where we see the wrinkles, grey hair, extra pounds. Menopause has already shown up or just waiting around the corner. We see the pretty 25-year olds and sigh. But, we were 25 once too, just like they will one day be our age. What they bring to the table with their youth and zest for life, we bring with our wisdom, experience and good hearts. For all we’ve been through earning each grey hair… raising kids, bills and ills and whatever else life throws at us, we are survivors… we are warriors… we are women. Like a classic car or fine wine. While our exterior may not be what it once was, it is traded for our spirit, our courage and our strength to enter this chapter of our lives with grace and pride for all we’ve been through and accomplished. Never feel bad about getting older. It is a privilege denied to many.ย

Ladies, I challenge you to copy and paste with your picture and age. My age is 56ย๐
I adore this woman’s sass and attitude, not to mention she is totally gorgeous, inside and out. I just had to share a few photos.
No Monday Musings this week as I am away at a Conference/Workshop, back again next week.
