So many mature women think that boudoir photography is just for the beautiful and young and that it probably isn’t for them. These women will say “oh I’m too old for all that sort of stuff”. “I’m past my best”. “No one wants to see me being mutton dressed as lamb. Yes – I’ve heard them all! But you know the adage that good wine get’s better with age – I believe the same is for a woman. Some of my most outstanding knockout clients have been women in their 50’s and 60’s.
So I really want to say to every amazing woman who has ever felt invisible with the passing years, who has taken a hit to her self-confidence or struggles to see her beauty through the aging process, this is not the time to fade “gracefully” into the background. This is our time to feel un-apologetically beautiful. It’s your time to shine your bright lights to illuminate the path ahead. (Especially for 30-something women who are looking at ahead to define what aging looks like.) This is your time to show the world that beauty is timeless and ageless, that your present is perfect and that your future still holds possibilities.
It’s time to shine the light on your accomplishments and contributions. It’s time to celebrate every hard won line, silver hair, stretch mark and battle scar as beautiful evidence of your bravery, strength and wisdom
