It was truly a pleasure watching Elizabeth’s story unfold before my camera. She has such an amazing spirit and it really came out during our session. This 53-year old is more than just her age! Learn how our session helped restore her confidence and sexiness in this week’s Q+A!

Why was this photoshoot important to you?

This photoshoot was important to me because I honestly have never taken photos in my adult life that I have walked away fully satisfied with how the photo captured me; whether it was the lighting, the pose, my expression, or my outfit something wasn’t quite right.

What drew you to Felicia Reed?

I was drawn initially to Felicia through my sister, then I went and performed a Google search to see examples of her work. Once I saw her work I was drawn to her photography style; in short, she captured the essence of a person. What I mean is that through her photographs you can see authentic expressions. And she also has the ability to photograph people of color with proper exposure and lighting that doesn’t require much edits to the photo. All this drew me to Felicia Reed.

What was your experience working with her?

My experience in working with Felicia was so enjoyable. She has a bubbly, infectious spirit and smile that changes the aura of the room. It puts you at ease and allows you to unload your fears and doubts. She has a warm and inviting demeanor that allows you to just be yourself as you allow all anxiety and worry to slide off your back. I loved everything about Felicia and the environment she sets up for you to feel at ease (i.e music, light snacks, etc.)

What was your favorite photo?

My absolute favorite photo is the one taken in black leather pants and a lacy, black bodysuit with my hands over my head. This is my favorite picture because it speaks to my confidence mentally and physically. It captures the sexiness I feel at 53.

How has the experience with Felicia Reed now changed the way you see yourself?

After my photoshoot with Felicia, I truly believe I am my own kind of beautiful. The photoshoot boosted my confidence in my physical attractiveness which has allowed me to embrace who I am as a 53-year old-twice divorced mother of two sons and one hell of an engineer! It allowed me to see what others have always seen in me.

What was the biggest takeaway from your photoshoot?

The biggest takeaway from my photoshoot was that it restored my confidence and encouraged me to step outside of my comfort zone at work and in my personal life.

What advice would you give other women?

I would say to other women having a photoshoot is a form of self-care that allows you to continually pour into yourself. Every time you look at your portraits you will be empowered and reminded to be the best version of yourself.
