Portraits
These are my guides for anyone who wants a portrait that looks like them rather than a pose. You will find advice on feeling comfortable in front of the camera, ideas for milestone birthdays, and the story behind my Fabulous Over 50 sessions, which grew out of a project that photographed 73 women in black and white in 2024. Portrait sessions in my Charlottesville studio start at $690, and every one begins with a conversation about who you are and what the photos are for.
"I am just not photogenic." If that is the sentence you say every time someone pulls out a phone, I promise you it is almost never true. To look good in photos, face soft light, keep the camera...
Ask a woman over 50 when she was last in a photo she actually liked, and watch her think hard.
The real difference between the three, what each costs, and four questions that tell you which one you need.
For too long, the camera looked right past women over 50. That is changing, fast. Here is why this generation is finally booking the portraits they deserve, and what a session actually feels like.
So many women over 50 quietly step out of photographs. Here is why that needs to change, and what a portrait session with me in Charlottesville is like.
Where my Fabulous Over 50 sessions came from: a photographer I never met, a calendar that stuck with me, and a campaign that ran far longer than planned.
Tell me what you have in mind and I will come back with availability and next steps.
