"I HAVE EARNED EVERY LINE"


“I have earned every line,” is a portrait campaign celebrating the raw, natural beauty of women over 50, photographed without makeup, filters, or retouching. Every line, wrinkle, and silver strand is a mark of a life well lived. Through powerful imagery and handwritten letters, we’re reframing aging as something to honor, not hide. This project is about visibility, legacy, and reminding women that their beauty doesn’t fade, it evolves.”


Have You Earned Every Line? Join the Movement.

Are you a woman over 50 who’s ready to be seen, truly seen in your natural beauty?

No makeup. No filters. Just you.

I’m inviting women in their 50s, 60s, 70s, and beyond to be part of I Have Earned Every Line, a portrait campaign honouring the stories etched into our skin: laugh lines, silver strands, soft eyes, bold spirits.

This is not about perfection, it’s about presence. No modelling experience needed. Just come as you are.
