Friends! The day finally arrived! Celebrating all of our Fabulous Beyond 40 Babes at our in-person Gallery Exhibition. I’m forever grateful to each of these fantastic women who took a chance on me and chose me to be their Intimate Portraits Photographer.

I wanted to showcase all of these Fabulous Beyond 40 Babes here in one place where you can admire their images and their stories (click on each name to link to their feature). Each woman is so special to me and thank you to all of you for joining me and helping to break down patriarchal and societal barriers. For many of us, life begins at 40 and you are all a true testament to living your best lives!!

Our Fabulous Beyond 40 Babes!

Final Thoughts

Y’all know I think women are the most amazing beings worthy of being seen! And yes, I do mean in images that you put up on your walls or on your coffee table etc! We all love a good selfie but nobody gets to appreciate you when they’re stuck on your phone. I’m so happy that all of these women now get to see themselves on the daily and have legacy images to look at and reflect on their amazingness!

Getting to know our Fabulous Beyond 40 Babes at each of their shoots was such a wonderful experience for me. And then having us all together with friends and family at our Fabulous Beyond 40 Exhibition was really special and powerful. Thank you to our hosts From Us Gifting and Industry Haus.

Regardless of age, I welcome every woman 19+ to treat themselves to this uplifting and empowering experience. If you’re curious about this year’s promotion BARE, click below to book your Discovery Call with me to ask any questions you may have. You deserve it!
