Why This, Why Now?

As a lifelong, passionate photographer, I was instantly drawn to this powerful concept of celebrating women’s journeys through portraiture. It feels like an idea whose time has come! You’ll be part of a remarkable community of wise, authentic women choosing to have their voices heard and their experiences honored.

Who Should Take Part?

All women ages 40+ are invited—whether you’re in your 40s, 50s, 60s or beyond. My camera has captured striking images of women from all walks of life, body types, backgrounds, and perspectives.

This is about far more than just “pretty pictures.” It’s a chance to reconnect deeply with your true self and be seen through a lens of beauty, strength, and relevance that the world often overlooks.

Think about how you want to be portrayed. What is the legacy you want to leave? My passion is taking everyday women and giving them a celebrity photoshoot experience they’ll never forget.

Full Experience of 40 Over 40 Includes:

Wardrobe & Style Consultation

During this part of the experience, we will plan out 4-5 curated looks for your photoshoot. You'll receive expert guidance on outfit colors, styling, and ensuring the perfect fit. Additionally, you'll have access to my collection of photoshoot clothing and accessories to utilize. We'll also discuss your desired poses, meaningful location ideas, and who you might like to invite to be part of some shots.

Photoshoot Makeover

To prepare you for your portraits, you'll receive professional camera-ready makeup artistry from my amazing makeup artist. The makeup look can range from full high-glam to a more natural, refined style - completely based on your preference. Hairstyling services will also be provided to ensure you look picture-perfect.

Celebrity-Worthy Photoshoot

This is where you get to experience being a cover girl for a day with the ultimate professional photoshoot! With my expert posing guidance and direction, you'll feel relaxed and confident in front of the camera. The whole experience is designed for you to leave feeling pampered and radiant.

After your photoshoot, you'll have the opportunity to view all of your beautiful portrait images. From those, you can choose your favorite complimentary image to be featured. You'll also have the option to purchase any additional portraits you love, either à la carte at $325 each or at a $220 rate for 5 or more images in a collection for $1099. Quality print products like albums and wall art will be available as well.

It was Julia who immediately put me at ease. She was so enthusiastic, complimentary, and spontaneous, that I could not help but to go along for the ride, without regrets. She has a remarkable ability to make her clients feel completely comfortable and beautiful. When we left, I felt like I was walking on air and could hardly wait to see the proofs. What I think I love most about both my photos and the whole experience is that Julia was able to capture a part of myself that even I don't see very often, but who is undeniably and uniquely an essential part of me. I have felt much more confident and attractive since the shoot and I can't wait to go back. What a gift she is to her lucky clients. I truly can't recommend her highly enough.

“Julia, you inspired me to go for it!”
“Julia, I was blown away by who you are. What a fire ball- break all the limits! Your light gives others permission to shine.”
“You have a beautiful spirit that will carry you far.”
“You are so vibrant and have such a zest for life; you light up a room.”

Will my photos be retouched to hide imperfections like stretch marks and blemishes?

Yes! We’ll start by posing you properly to hide anything you don’t want to show, and our magazine-quality lighting will also help hide any wrinkles, blemishes, spots or bruises from the camera.

What does get through can be addressed with Photoshop later. With that process, we’ll smooth your skin, remove stray hairs, and help you lose a digital pound or two.

We can also make the colors pop, and perfect your makeup, etc. We won’t overdo it, though – the goal is to bring out the beauty that’s already there, and keep you looking natural and fresh.

A woman is often measured by the things she cannot control. She is measured by the way her body curves or doesn’t curve, by where she is flat or straight or round.  She is measured by 36-24-36 and inches and ages and numbers, by all the outside things that don’t ever add up to who she is on the inside.   And so  if  a woman is to be measured, let her be measured by the things she can control, by who she is and who she is trying to become. Because as every woman knows, measurements are only statistics… and STATISTICS LIE.

I traveled from NYC to arrange a boudoir photoshoot as a wedding gift for my fiancé. Julia was exceptional every step of the way. Her warmth and inviting nature eased my nerves, particularly as someone who's self-conscious and shy about my body. From helping me select outfits to being my cheerleader, she was incredible. Julia kept in touch leading up to the shoot, ensuring I felt prepared. On the day, her communication was superb. Welcoming me with open arms, she immediately put me at ease. With her guidance on poses, I gained a confidence boost, even taking the lead on some. Julia's expertise is unparalleled; I highly recommend booking her for your boudoir photoshoot!

Julia is amazing! For my birthday, my husband bought me the gift of a boudoir shoot. I was nervous but he told me to speak with Julia before making a decision. I'm so glad I did! She immediately made me feel comfortable and prepared. The shoot itself was so fun and she made me feel so confident. Her studio is beautiful with incredible pieces of furniture. After seeing the pictures, I'm so beyond happy. Thank you, Julia!

Let me start by saying that Julia is an absolute delight. Boudoir was a concept I never saw myself considering, let alone trying, until it was recommended to me to help with my body image and self confidence issues. I was super anxious searching around and trying to figure out everything for myself. The whole thing felt overwhelming and definitely out of my comfort zone. That is until Julia reached out to me. She called and we talked for over 30 minutes just getting to know each other, seeing how our personalities paired, and figuring out what I want and what I am comfortable with. She was incredibly friendly and easy to talk to. She made it abundantly clear that she genuinely cared about me and really wanted to show me how beautiful I am. Before the shoot, she was incredibly helpful giving me outfit suggestions, makeup inspo, and answering as many questions as I could throw at her. It really helped me feel emotionally prepared for our session together. During the shoot she was even sweeter, constantly giving me genuine compliments and being the leading hand through the whole thing. Never once did I feel judged or feel the need to hide myself from her. We joked around the whole time and kept the energy high. I can safely say the whole experience was far from uncomfortable, by the end I felt we had a great bond. I am unbelievably excited to get my pictures back, mainly because I know they will be STUNNING. I can’t thank Julia enough for being so supportive and willing to work to show me how beautiful the world sees me and start the long process of me seeing myself that way too. If you read this far, just book with her already. You won’t regret it :)
