Legacy Sessions: Transform the Way You See Yourself

Empowering Women Over 40: Your Exclusive Legacy Session Awaits at my Downtown Bloomington, IL Studio


I am Photographing 25 women in their 40’s, 50’s, 60’s, 70’s+

I WOULD LOVE FOR YOU TO BE ONE OF THEM!


Welcome to the launch of Our Legacy Portraits Project! Throughout the years, we’ve been on an empowering journey, capturing the beauty and strength of countless remarkable women. And guess what? We’re back at it again, this time with a powerful purpose—together, we’re making a difference for St. Jude!

Enter the exclusive Legacy Portrait Sessions, designed to uplift and empower women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, and beyond. This isn’t just about photographs; it’s about revolutionizing the dialogue on the elegance of aging, reshaping society’s perception. Far too often, this vibrant demographic remains unseen and unheard. It’s high time to change that narrative.

From February 1st to September 2024, our studio is dedicated to capturing the essence of 25 extraordinary women over 40. Imagine the transformative experience awaiting them—a complete makeover by our seasoned hair and makeup artist, a personalized and guided portrait session tailored to their desires (whether it’s headshots, branding, boudoir, or a blend of styles), and a stunning magazine featuring their captivating stories.

But hold onto your seats, because it gets even better! This endeavor isn’t solely about empowerment; it’s about making an impact. With each session, a generous $50 will be directed straight to the phenomenal charity, St. Jude’s. By participating, not only do we empower 40 incredible women, but we also rally support for an exceptional cause.

Join us in this journey of empowerment! —let’s redefine beauty, amplify voices, and create lasting change, one powerful portrait at a time!
