“I believe in empowering women to feel confident in their own skin,” she said. That’s why she said yes to the 40 Over 40 Experience — a photography project at Pearl Studios that celebrates women in their 40s, 50s, and beyond.

My first couples boudoir shoot with Vanessa and her team was incredible. It was my first time doing something like this, and I absolutely loved every moment of it. Vanessa and her team were amazing, and I felt beautiful and empowered throughout the session. The best part was seeing the joy on my husband's face as he watched me pose. This experience has done wonders for my self-confidence and self-worth. I feel more comfortable in my own skin than I have in a long time. It was everything I hoped for and more. If you're hesitant about doing a boudoir shoot, just go for it! It's an incredibly fun, sexy, and empowering experience. I wish I could do it every week now! 😊
