THE 40 OVER 40 CAMPAIGN
A POWERFUL CELEBRATION OF 40 INCREDIBLE WOMEN IN THEIR 40’S 50’S 60’S, 70’s & BEYOND.
A PORTRAIT EXPERIENCE FOR WOMEN WHO ARE READY TO BE SEEN.
Over the years I keep meeting incredible women who do not realise how powerful, beautiful & inspiring they truly are. These woman have lived, loved, lost, rebuilt & still somehow put themselves last.
This campaign is for all the Shropshire women over 40 who don’t feel enough, don’t feel seen, have lost their confidence or maybe never had any in the first place!
If something inside you is whispering ‘it’s time’ then this is your moment!
who is this for?
This experience is open to all women over 40 & yes, that includes you! I have had the honour of photographing women of all shapes, sizes, backgrounds & walks of life. Every story is different & every woman brings her own unique beauty to the studio.
This is more than just a photoshoot, it’s an uplifting, transformative & empowering experience tailored for each women.
Take a moment to ask yourself, How do I want to be seen? What kind of legacy do I want to leave?
My passion is to take everyday women & give them an unforgettable magazine style experience. It’s a journey about self connection, self worth & celebrating the woman you are today.
It’s not just about pretty pictures, it’s about helping you truly see yourself, your strength, your beauty, your spirit, just as the world sees you.
Because you deserve to feel powerful, radiant & unapologetically you.
You don’t need to lose weight. You don’t need to be photogenic. You don’t need to know how to pose.
You just need to show up — I’ll guide you through everything.

MEET JULIE
EMPOWERING WOMEN, ONE WOMAN AT A TIME
My passion has always been to empower women in their own skin. To liberate them from feeling not enough. As a child & teenager, I was shy & unsure. It wasn’t until I trained to become a hairdresser & later as a portrait & boudoir photographer, that I witnessed the power of transformation. How a woman's confidence can shift when she truly sees herself.
Over the years, I have listened to so many women speak about their insecurities, self doubt & struggles with the way they feel about their bodies. That is why this work means so much to me.
My favourite part of the entire experience is the moment they see their images. The emotion. The tears. The disbelief that the woman on screen is them. In that moment, change happens & the confidence begins.
It’s not about pretty pictures & it’s not about perfection. It’s about reconnection. It’s about giving yourself space to start to let go of those insecurities & see yourself as you are, a beautiful, strong woman.

![WOMEN BACLIT GOLD DRESS HAIR BLOWING PORTRAIT STUDIO SHREWSBURY]()
Julie did portrait photos of me recently, and I would like to recommend Julie's service as second to none. From my first consultation with her she spent time getting to know me, understanding who I am and what I wanted out of a portrait photo. She wanted to capture the essence of me in her photos. On the day she organised a range of outfits for me to choose from if I wanted, had arranged for a hairdresser and make up artist to attend me and did everything she could to put me at ease and make it a fun and pampering day which was all about me!
The resulting photos were stunning - is that really me? !!
A well worthwhile investment in me - in you.... I thoroughly recommend her.-Gill K

![55 YEAR OLS WOMEN WEARING WHITE SHIRT & CROWN SMILING BOUDOIR EXPERIENCE SHREWSBURY]()
Feeling empowered and feminine and rejuvenated after just a few hours in the studio with Julie! I never thought at 57 years of age, I would walk into a studio and have a photo shoot. Show myself. Yet, Gigi made me feel a million dollars with her amazing make up and hair styling which was naturally me. Then Julie slowly teased out so many layers of me which she caught on camera. I saw parts of me I had hidden, parts I thought I'd lost and parts I didn't even know existed. I thought Playboy might come knocking for some images!! I was blushing!! I was completely blown away when I went to my photo reveal, and I just know anyone who books this experience will not be disappointed. You will feel liberated and alive again. Do it, you are all beautiful in the skin you are in, let Julie bring out your glow to show the world and embrace all parts of you, just as I did. I keep looking at my photos and remembering the fun I had on the shoot, and I smile all over again. Spoil yourself, you are worth it. Book today and tell her Collette sent you!!
