COMPETITION NOW CLOSED BUT THE PROJECT STILL CONTINUES. THERE IS ROOM FOR 20 MORE FIFTY-YEAR-OLD WOMEN TO JOIN US. CONTACT ME USING THE ‘TALK TO ME’ BUTTON ABOVE.
I’m turning 50 this year.
That makes my dad feel old.
I’m the last of four, so his wee little one is now well and truly all grown up. (I guess. Though sometimes I’m not so sure I’ll ever be a proper grown up!)
Anyway…. 50 I will be, and to celebrate I’m launching a new project: This is 50*
Have you noticed how once we reach a certain age, women begin to disappear from screens, magazines, commercials (unless they’re the face of retirement villages and incontinence pads, that is!) Why is that? Have you ever asked yourself that? I don’t see myself as being anywhere near that demographic. Maybe I’m in denial? Or maybe older women are just under-represented in the press.
I’m on a mission to change that.
Over the next 18 months I want to bring more 50 year olds in front of my camera — fifty of them in fact! — to photograph them and ask them what they think about getting older, what they’ve learned, what they think about the lack of older women in the press….. And because it’s my birthday there’s a gift involved too.
No…. you don’t have to buy me anything! (Although, if you feel strongly led to do so, you can search the ‘wish list’ category on this blog and find a few things that might be well-received…. particularly the one about the Little Black Jacket! 😉 )
No, the gift is from me to you:
The “This is 50” shoots are being sold for less than half my usual price… actually I’m only asking you to cover the cost of my makeup artist for the session ($200) AND I’m giving everyone who books one of these sessions $250 in print and product credit. All up, that would usually cost you $745, and you get that for just $200. Not bad, hey?
PLUS YOU COULD WIN $1200 ADDITIONAL PRINT AND PRODUCT CREDIT!
Anyone who pays that $200 booking fee for a This is 50 shoot by Monday 16th September 2019 will go into the draw to win an additional $1200 print and product credit towards the purchase of images from their shoot.
It’s my super-duper 50th birthday present to you.
Interested? Make sure you book in by 16th September 2019! Full T&Cs below.
