FAQS
+ WHAT IF I WANT MORE THAN ONE PHOTOGRAPH?
Absolutely! When you see the 20-30 stunning images I have created for you, you'll mostly likely want them all! Extra photographs (including the digital and 5x7 print on 8x10 mat) are $275 each, but the more you buy, the more you save. You can save by purchasing collections. The more you buy, the cost goes down. Our packages with 6 images start at $1197 + tax and go up from there. I do take credit cards and offer payment plans as well.
TELL ME ABOUT YOUR PRODUCTS FOR SALE - I offer beautiful products to store and display your new photographs, including matted prints, albums, folio boxes and wall art. My most popular item is a glass-front eco-leather box, hand crafted in Italy, which sits on your mantel or bookshelf to show off your new matted prints. It's like a living frame, where you may swap out the photo in the front at any time.
+ WHERE DOES THE SHOOT TAKE PLACE?
My portrait studio at 365 N 4th Ave, Phoenix, AZ. 85024
+ WHAT DAYS DO YOU HAVE AVAILABLE FOR THIS SHOOT?
I have appointments available for shoots during weekday afternoons by appointment. Availability is first come first served. On our phone chat I will share next available dates and make sure to find an opening that works for you.
+ TELL ME ABOUT THE PORTRAIT EXHIBITION + CELEBRATION?
One of the most exciting parts of this project is to celebrate all 40 of our participants and share your images and stories with the community. There will also be a final celebration featuring all 40 women's portraits on display once this project is complete. Our venue will be announced as we get closer.
+ WHY ARE YOU PASSIONATE ABOUT THIS PROJECT?
I can relate to all of my 40+ peers of the feelings we have about aging and how we are underrepresented in the media. There's no expiration date on being a fabulous, happy, fulfilled, and vibrant. You inspire me. Your stories inspire me. You show me and our society the truth-- that a woman just gets better with time, like a fine wine! I am a huge believer in women's empowerment. There aren't enough platforms for women over 40 to share their story.
+ I'M NOT PHOTOGENIC THOUGH! IS THAT OK?
"Photogenic" is not something you are...or not! It's my job as the photographer to make you look and feel amazing. And lucky for you I am a trained master at making women of all ages, shapes and sizes look amazing in photographs.
+ WHAT WILL I WEAR?
You can wear up to 4 different outfits in your photoshoot. We have a collection of over 100 dresses and gowns for you to play DRESS UP! Or, you can be casual in jeans and a black or white shirt. You can wear a sun dress. You can wear a fancy cocktail dress or jumpsuit. You can wear yoga clothes. This photo session is all about YOU, and celebrating what makes you, YOU! There's no rules. Give me your vision and I will bring it to life!
+ WHAT IF I'D LIKE TO INCLUDE MY CHILDREN, PARTNER, PET OR FAMILY?
Certainly! You can definitely include loved ones in your shoot! Extra hair and make up is $150 per person (if needed). Part of your story is the people (and furry pets) you love. So if you want to include your loved ones, the more the merrier. And you also have total permission to make this photoshoot just about YOU!
+ CAN I REFER A FRIEND OVER 40 TO ALSO BE A PART OF THIS PROJECT?
Yes! I would love to also have your friends be a part of this project! Please spread the word.
+ WHAT IF I BOOKED MY DATE & PAID $299 AND THEN HAVE TO RESCHEDULE?
I totally understand that life happens! I do book in my hair & makeup artist's time to be at your photoshoot. Therefore, you are allowed one reschedule more than 7 days out from the shoot at no charge. If we have less than 7 days notice (or this is the second time you need to reschedule) we do charge a $100 rescheduling fee.
+ HOW ARE YOU CHOOSING WHO PARTICIPATES?
We aren't "choosing" anyone. Every woman's story is inspiring. Every woman is beautiful. So we aren't going to exclude anyone who wants to be involved. Basically, this project is first come, first served. If you are willing to connect with me for a "get to know you" call pay your $299 participation fee, book your date, are over 40 (or turning 40 this year) you can be a part of the shoot! YAY! The other limit is that we only have 40 spots available. Once we hit 40 women, we will create a waitlist of interested women.
