このコンテンツについて
What if a single captured moment could reconnect you with the woman you thought had faded from view? Many women step into midlife feeling invisible, uncertain, or disconnected from their own reflection. Yet the right photographic experience can reopen that connection and reveal a version of themselves they believed was long gone.
In this episode of Embrace the Encore, Marie Wallace sits down with award-winning portrait photographer Julie Kaplan, whose work with women over 40 is rooted in gentleness, honesty, and the belief that beauty deepens with life experience. Julie shares how her guided process helps women let go of the pressure to be perfect and instead allows them to be seen as they truly are. Her sessions invite women to soften, breathe, trust, and rediscover the spark they feared they had lost.
Julie and Marie explore the emotional shifts that unfold in the studio, from nervous beginnings to moments of genuine self-recognition. They discuss why this stage of life often brings women to her door, how vulnerability transforms into confidence, and why printed portraits can become meaningful markers of identity, belonging, and legacy. This conversation is a reminder that self-discovery is still possible and that midlife can be a powerful invitation back to yourself.
Tune in to episode 17 of Embrace the Encore and discover how choosing to be seen can open the door to your next chapter.
