Join the Campaign
Calling women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond!
We had so many applications last year that we are doing it again! This is the second year of the Unstoppable Campaign. Last year over 35 women joined the campaign, and we are looking for another diverse group of women to join our Unstoppable Portrait Campaign. Our goal is to celebrate women with powerful portraits and by telling their unique stories.
The Exhibition Event will be in Basel, Switzerland in May 2024.
You are ENOUGH
Your strength, beauty, and spirit do not diminish with age. You are worthy of being seen, photographed, pampered and loved.
You are perfect NOW. Who are you in your most beautiful self? We want to photograph her and redefine what beauty means. This is for every woman - and we can’t wait to photograph you!
You are Unstoppable.
Who is this Portrait Campaign for?
This is for woman age 30+
Discover your beauty. Share your story. It’s time to turn away from all the times you’ve ever felt “less than” or unworthy and learn to appreciate who you are. The time is now. Are you a woman age 30 or older? This is your time to be seen. We can’t wait to meet you!
“I loved this experience!”
“From getting my makeup done, to changing outfits, to the positive feedback and posing that I received. I would do this again in a heartbeat and Melissa and Aaron are truly amazing. They make you feel beautiful the whole time!”

Hello lovely! I specialize in helping everyday women see how beautiful they are through my photography.It’s my mission to show every woman who walks in front of my camera all the beauty that she might be having a hard time finding.
What gives me hope for the future is all the incredible women who I’ve met who used to be labeled by society as “past their prime.” These women have said “HELL YES!” and have refused to be labeled or diminished as they move through life. I want to use this campaign to showcase the timeless beauty and wisdom of women in their 30s, 40s, 50s and beyond!
Let’s rebel against the “old” beauty standards and celebrate our worth and value as women!

My background in Fine Art is what initially brought me into this really special genre, but it’s honestly the power that it has to transform a woman that makes me so happy with my work. I know lots of really incredible women (my mother, sister, and friends among them) who have a difficult time appreciating their own beauty and seeing the strength that everyone else sees in them. A photoshoot really has the ability to change a woman’s perception of herself and I feel so lucky to help women move past their fears into seeing the very best version of themselves. I think that is pure magic, and I’m honored to be a part of your photoshoot experience at our location in Canada.
“Celebrate who you are in your deepest heart. Love yourself and the world will love you.”

Portraits and statements from a few of the 35 women who joined the campaign last year…
“
From a very early age and through most of my life I had a joy-crippling perception that beauty meant a physically perfect body. For me, that was repeatedly unattainable. But if I couldn't have a beautiful body, I'd overcompensate with what laid on top – the clothes, the jewelry, the make-up.
Those feelings have since evolved. Now when I think of beauty, I think of uniqueness and authenticity. It's wearing your hair the way you want. It's wearing the type of clothing you want and in the way you want. It's having the comfort to put forward the face that reflects how you feel on that day and in that moment - whether it's excited, neutral, happy, frustrated, sensual, sad, or any other emotion. That also means not wearing
make-up, or wearing make-up, or any combination in between.
But the beauty within any of that is being true to your preferences, which come from so many individual traits and experiences that can change at any given moment. To me, beauty is having the will to look and sound however you like even when it may not be the "norm" or popular. When I see someone who embodies that, the word that often springs to mind is "Beautiful." And with the greatest irony ever, I'm envious.

It took until I was well into my 40s to truly feel beautiful.
Aging brings with it a unique gift of inner perspective, a humble confidence of who you are, and a genuine, unapologetic release of no longer being concerned by what other people think about you. Aging and beauty, in this way, are entirely one and the same.
- Naomi Smith

I recently lost a friend to breast cancer and something in me shifted in regards to how I viewed aging.
Aging, as hard as it can be for women in our society, is a gift. Not everyone has the privilege to grow old. I think every woman has the right to her own aging journey and doing whatever feels right & good is what’s best.
Also comparison is the thief of joy.

The UNSTOPPABLE Exhibition Event Night
Tell me more!

Great question, yes, we sure do! All the women on our website are everyday women just like you, not models - they walked in the studio having no clue how to pose but we showed them absolutely everything and look how awesome they look! See, if they can do it, so can you!
All posing is fully guided, we show you everything so there’s no pressure on you!
-
Yeees, we absolutely do! Women size XS-XXXL have walked through our doors and rocked their sessions! You are absolutely beautiful right now, not 10 kilos from now or ten years ago - right now.
We are proud to be a body-positive studio and we love working with every size woman - you deserve to see your beauty (and how great you look to everyone else!).
-
Yes! You might have noticed that we specialize in Boudoir photography but this campaign is about more than just boudoir. If you choose to do some more revealing photos then we can absolutely do that, but you do not have to wear anything particular.
The photos will have a fashion influence, but we will talk about that in your consultation call.
It is important to us that this campaign reflect the individual strength and personality of every woman. If for you that’s a turtleneck, then that’s awesome! If it’s a blazer with nothing underneath, that’s also awesome! We always work within your comfort zone.
-
We specialize in classy, Black & White photography here in the studio but we can also deliver images in color - just say the word!
