I’m a lifelong learner, interested many things. I often reflect that everything I’ve ever learned goes into my work at some point. In 2012, I studied in London with renowned florist Judith Blacklock (who used to do flowers for the Queen). Later, I used the knowledge I gained from Judith and began to create special
For the past two years, I’ve been working on a campaign for women over 50. Now, I’m introducing The Over 50 Revolution 2024.

Sharon decided to book a portrait session for Extraordinary: the Over 50 Revolution because she wanted beautiful portraits to mark this time in her life.

At the start of her session, Patty enjoyed professional hair and makeup styling by hair and makeup artist
Last year I started my first campaign for women over 50. I wanted to help change the way the media and society define aging, to cultivate the freedom and confidence that result from appreciating—and loving–our own maturity. This campaign spoke to Lisa so strongly that she flew to New Hampshire from her home in California
A New Iteration I’m pleased to announce that one of my portraits of poet Donald Hall is included in a new iteration of an exhibit called “Iconic New Hampshire.” Originally displayed in full last summer at PSU, this exhibit is taking a new form this month at New England College in Manchester, NH.

It’s been five years since I first photographed Cindy, Dave, and their children. I love seeing them. I know kids grow, but I don’t see them everyday, so the changes in the kids were surprising to me! In the words of English poet Alexander Pope, “swift fly the years.” For Cindy and Dave, it was
A Special Exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston Last weekend was another rainy one, so I decided to take a drive south to see “Fashioned by Sargent,” a special exhibit at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.

It’s not easy to be a ‘tween or teen. You might see your daughter as smart, strong, funny, beautiful, quirky. But does she see herself in all of the good ways that the other people in her life see her? I’m seeing that, especially since the pandemic, girls in this age group are feeling a
Cheryl booked a portrait session for Extraordinary: the Over 50 Revolution in part to challenge the notion that only men look distinguished as they age. She said, “Women over 50 radiate beauty, strength, vitality. This project celebrates that lived experience. We offer you visible proof.” “By 50, today’s woman fulfills myriad roles: daughter, wife, mom,
After her mother passed away this year, Debbie began to realize how valuable portraits of a loved one are to those left behind. Her daughter encouraged her to participate in this campaign as she also felt it important to have portraits of her mother. Debbie decided to step out of her comfort zone and book

For her 78th birthday, Judith booked a session for Extraordinary: Over 50 Revolution. She did it because she has few photos of herself at all, let alone ones that make her feel beautiful. Like many women, she is usually the one taking the photos. As a child, she learned to hide from the camera. “My
