Meet Carolyn Roden Martyn.
Carolyn asked not to have her wrinkles edited out. No filters, nothing smoothed. See me as I am, she said.
She's fifty-eight and she'll tell you she's never been more confident. She's spent more than thirty years in women's health, talking about menopause long before the rest of the world caught up, because she spots what people need and just goes and does something about it.
When she saw her photos, she said she felt happy exactly as she is. That's the whole point, isn't it.
She's one of my Mavericks, and she sparkles on purpose. Check the link in the comments for her story, in her own words.
Maverick is a small portrait campaign I'm running this year for people who built their success their own way and are ready to be seen as who they've become. Ten spots, that's all.
It's the whole experience: a real conversation about who you are, wardrobe and styling, hair and makeup, the guided shoot where making you photogenic is my job and not yours, the reveal, and a piece of wall art to take home. A $1500 experience for $450.
Anyone can apply, women and men both, and if we've worked together before, I'd love to have you back. Applications are open and I'm reading them as they come in.
