They are artists, mothers, teachers, caretakers, leaders, lovers, survivors, seekers.
They have lived through reinvention, heartbreak, joy, resilience, silence, and celebration.
And they are just getting started.
This project is a love letter to the women
who’ve grown into themselves —
Who have made peace with their past, or are still learning to.
Who are visible now, not because the world said so,
but because they decided they were worth being seen.
Because somewhere around this age, something shifts.
You’ve lived enough life to carry stories in your eyes.
You’ve lost and gained — people, identities, dreams.
And still, you rise.
At 40 and beyond, women often disappear from the spotlight.
This project flips the script.
Here, you are not just seen.
You are celebrated.
Each woman in this project received a custom portrait experience
designed to reveal who she is — in this moment of her life.
Some came feeling hesitant.
Many left saying, “I’ve never seen myself like this before.”
These aren’t just photographs.
They are mirrors.
And reminders of what happens when we pause to witness ourselves.
I invite you to explore the stories of these incredible women.
Each one is unique. And each one is a thread in this tapestry of becoming.

This year’s project is nearly full, but I may open a few more spaces.
If you’re 40+ and want to be seen — truly seen —
you’re warmly invited to get in touch or get on my wait list here.
