What did you enjoy most about The 50 Over 50 Women’s Portrait Campaign? And how did the experience leave you feeling?

The fun day and camaraderie with my sister-in-law!

Makeup artist, Donna and I had such a fantastic day in the studio with Theresa and her sister-in-law, Marianne.

There were initially some nerves before the portrait session (which just about every person feels before coming in), but it soon dissolved into laughter.  And the entire day, was one laugh after the next.

I have truly had the most amazing women participate in The 50 Over 50 Women’s Portrait Campaign.
