I'm photographing 5 women this month. I'd love you to be one of them.

A one-of-a-kind portrait Celebration experience for women 40 and up who are ready to remember exactly who they are.

Chandler Arizona Photographer

Are you in your 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s and beyond?
This is your Season to be Seen!

You've spent decades taking care of everyone else. The kids, the partner, the parents, the career, the household, the people who needed you to hold it all together. And somewhere along the way, you stopped recognizing the woman in the mirror.

You're not done. You're just getting started.

The Portrait Celebration Project is for the woman who's tired of fading into the background. Who wants one day, just one, where she gets to be the only thing in the frame. Who's ready to honor the body she has now, the story she's lived so far, and the chapter she's just stepping into.

We are sensual, desirable, and vibrant beings. The world stopped looking around 45. We're done with that.

APPLY NOW
  • A woman with blonde hair, wearing a black leather jacket and red earrings, sitting on a teal tufted sofa against a black background.

    Age is not a number but a badge of honor

  • A woman with blonde hair and glasses wearing a white turtleneck sweater, smiling, resting her head on her hand, with a white background.

    Your stories are bold declarations of resilience, beauty, and enduring power.

  • A woman with glasses, brown wavy hair, and a large white flower in her hair, smiling and lying on a vintage pink velvet sofa, wearing a pink velvet dress.

    You are The Embodiment of Wisdom and Beauty

Choose your experience!

Every woman gets to decide how she wants to be photographed. Some of my clients want classic, glamorous beauty portraits. Others want something more intimate, more sensual, just for themselves. Both are powerful. Both are beautiful. You pick the experience that calls you

Glamour & Beauty!

For the woman who wants to feel like a covergirl for a day. Classic, editorial, magazine-style portraits with professional hair, makeup, and styling. Think the photo you'd hang in your office, send to your kids, or use as your next professional headshot. This is where most of my clients start.

You'll love this if you want:

  • Polished, editorial portraits you'd be proud to share publicly

  • A confidence boost without stepping outside your comfort zone

  • Photos that capture exactly who you are, just at your most styled

APPLY NOW

Boudoir!

For the woman who's ready to do something just for herself. Boudoir is intimate, sensual, and entirely on your terms. It's not about anyone else. Not your husband, not a partner, not an audience. It's about you, looking at yourself, and finally seeing what the rest of us have always seen.

You'll love this if you want:

  • A private, sensual experience that's just for you

  • To reclaim a part of yourself you put on a shelf

  • Photos that live in a beautiful albu

APPLY NOW

We are looking for women just like you

Why should I do this?

A woman with gray hair, wearing a black and white patterned dress and holding white flowers, poses against a red background.

To do something empowering for yourself.

To honor what makes
you beautiful and unique.

To embrace every freckle, line and scar
no matter your age, shape or size.

To share your story about what
it means to be a mature woman.

To stand in your own power with body-positivity, strength and courage.

To help other women realize their potential by stepping out of the shadows.

To learn to love the reflection looking back at you in the mirror.

To acknowledge that self love isn’t selfish.

WHY 40s, 50s, 60s, 70s++, WHY ME AND WHY NOW?

I’m Shalista Anderson. I’m 46, and I’ve spent the last 23 years photographing women through every season of life.

What I know for sure is this: women over 40 are not fading. They are becoming more honest, more powerful, more themselves.

This project matters to me because I know how easy it is to spend years taking care of everyone else and forget to stop long enough to see yourself clearly. This experience is your chance to do exactly that.

Remember . . . it is ALL about you.

SESSIONS ARE LIMITED AND BOOKING FAST.

Let’s have a quick chat about including
you in the 40 Over 40 Portrait Experience.
