Why did you say yes to this campaign? What was your WHY to participate?

Treating myself to something nice after looking at the fabulous photos of previous women.

Tell me a little about you and your story:

I’m a working mother of 4 very sporty children. I find myself on the road all the time and when I’m not taxiing I’m working at home. I had a very tough year last year personally and I thought this campaign was super. Olga’s photos always caught my eye, they are all beautiful.

What do you see when you look in the mirror?

A young at heart live wire trapped in an aging body.

Describe yourself in 3 words:

Positive, considerate and kind.

Do you feel like you have changed since turning 40?

Physically yes but still young at heart and think I’m still 21.

What advice would you give to your younger self about caring for yourself?

Go on the holidays and enjoy yourself – life is too short.

What do you consider self-love?

Going for a spa day.

What do you love most about your new portraits? Is there something new you discovered about yourself?

I love the different angles and the perfect looks Olga captures that show a little cheeky side inside me.

What was your favourite part of working with me?

I felt glamorous and fabulous working with Olga. She had you at ease from the moment you step in the door and know exactly how to get your perfect picture.

Would YOU like to be part of this campaign celebrating women in their 40’s, 50’s and 60’s?
