60 PLUS PORTRAITS
If you follow my @women.60.plus on Instagram, then you know I love to photograph women and men over 60.
Unfortunately this is a group of people who tend to be forgotten and not seen.
I’ve been hired for these kinds of photo sessions - to give as gifts to someone. (Learn more here!)
Plus, I’ve been hired for these kinds of sessions - as a self purchase. (Learn more here!)
I started my 60+ photography for a few reasons.
I wanted to focus on a group of people who I felt were under-represented, under-served, under-recognized.
I felt upset that society (and in particular, Western Society) tends to focus on the beautiful, younger population.
I wanted to fight back - by fully representing the beauty of the older population.
I wanted to shine a spot light on all their…
wisdom
resilience
character
presence
empowerment
creativity
I wanted to show that we 60+ people continue to thrive as we age.
My images of older people are especially important to me because I - as an older woman - don’t want to be invisible to the outside world.
And I personally fully recognize how there’s a power in having gathered 60+ years of experience on this planet.
As an over 60 person myself, there’s a sense of mutuality when I photograph older people.
I particularly love when my 60+ clients say to me - after a shoot - things like:
“Wow, I felt like super-model for a day”
“We 60-somethings rock!”
“Thank you, this experience has touched parts of my soul that I had not yet discovered.”
Basically, my 60+ photo sessions are a profound experience for my clients - and myself!
I am inspired to continue this revealing and rewarding work in mutual connections with these extraordinary 60+ people - both women and men.
