Lexie, celebrating 70 fabulous years with the Your Face, Your Story Project.
I am still waiting for Lexie to let me know which image is her favourite image from her shoot. I play a little game with myself for every shoot and pick my favourite image to see if my fabulous subject picks the same image - it is funny how I rarely get it right. I think it speaks much of how we all see ourselves differently to how others see us and the fact that we have many different sides.
This image was a special part of the shoot as Lexie has a tattoo or remembrance for her son. It is a beautiful mark of remembebrance and we wanted to include this in some of her photos. I love this image for so many reasons, one of which is that Lexie looks so beautiful, and comfortable in her skin and where she is at right now in her life.
Lexie’s son is the reason why Lexie is the driving force behind the Tenterlife Suicide Prevention Network, an organisation that I joined recently and is also super close to my heart.
The Your Face, Your Story Project is a project celebrating the lives of 40 women over 40 and challenges the stereotypes of ageing. It is my own personal little revolution because age doesn’t matter, what is in your heart does.
I look forward to sharing the faces and stories of these amazing women over the next 7 months.
