THE 40 over 40 EXPERIENCE

TRUE BEAUTY IN A WOMAN IS REFLECTED IN HER SOUL.
IT IS THE CARING THAT SHE LOVINGLY GIVES, THE PASSION THAT SHE KNOWS; THE BEAUTY OF A WOMAN WITH PASSING YEARS ONLY GROWS.

Audrey Hepburn

What is this?


This is a photo project that I am so excited about! I turned 40 last year and I'll be plain honest - immediately following the pandemic I found myself tired, overweight, and depressed. I had some inner-work to accomplish and started small. Today I find myself getting to the gym 6 days a week, I've found a pretty amazing team of experts to keep my hair and lashes looking fab and I just feel so beautiful! Beauty starts with us on the inside, sure, but when you're outside is looking good I find that something magical happens. Total game changer.


Can you relate? When was the last time YOU felt beautiful?


I wanted to start a photo project that would stimulate other women who have had similar feelings about themselves. As women, we tend to take care of everyone else's needs first. Keeping our families thriving is so rewarding, but a hell of a lot of hard work.


When was the last time you did something just for you?


This project is all about helping women ages 40+ feel beautiful. To feel empowered. To fill your cup so you can fill everyone else's.


We all have a unique story to tell.

Who can participate?


ANY woman over the age of 40 looking to feel beautiful (and maybe a little transformed)! Looking for women in their 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s, 80s... you get the idea.

How much does it cost?


To participate, there is a $350 non refundable session fee to secure your session date.

real words from real experiences

HOLISTIC WELLNESS COACH


“The whole set up, make up, hair, picking out clothes, treats and drinks, puppy time, sexy time (shocked I enjoyed that part), time for me. I felt young again and that I was at a sleepover. I always like the music, it relaxes me and makes me want to dance. [Stacy's] entire set up is such a cool vibe and very personable. I love spaces, visually a delight and tells a story of who [she is]…fun!!!  I like to visualize in some of my meditations and [her] studio will be one that I will visit in my mind for rest, relaxation, and inspiration.  Plus it smells delicious, all 5 senses were stimulated during my session.”

Before + Afters of beautiful, everyday women

this will be promoted!


Interested? Just be sure you're OK with the following:


  • you will be interviewed about being over the age of 40. This may include video interviews.
  • that interview may be shared on my website and social media.
  • before and after photos may be shared on my website and social media.

Here is my process:

I. Consultation.

This is when we design your session! We talk everything - the who, the where, the when, the why. Done in person or via zoom or FaceTime (I like to see your face! I'm a people person... I know, shocker.)

II. Take photos.

You enter my studio welcomed with warm smiles and a cocktails, if you like. Professional hair & make up - however you want to look that day from natural to super glam. I direct you through the entire shoot (and you'll always know what to do with your hands).

III. Deliver memories.

When we're all done shooting, we look at your images together to select your complimentary 8x10 print. Purchasing anything additional is completely up to you. Only buy what you love.
