The Ezell Images 40 Over 40 Project is an empowering initiative that celebrates the beauty, strength, and individuality of women aged 40 and over (50's, 60's, and beyond!) in the Reno, Sparks, and Lake Tahoe areas.

This project aims to inspire women to embrace their unique stories and showcase their confidence through professional photography and personal narratives.

The Portrait Experience

Each participant enjoys a portrait session designed to bring out their natural confidence and beauty. The experience includes:

• Professional Hair and Makeup – A team of experts enhances each woman's unique features, ensuring they feel radiant and camera-ready.
• Wardrobe Consultation & Outfit Changes – Participants can bring multiple outfits to showcase different aspects of their personality, style, and story.
• Expert Posing & Guidance – With years of experience, the photographer provides expert direction to create stunning, flattering portraits that capture each woman's essence.

This personalized and uplifting experience allows each woman to see herself in a new light, celebrating who she is at this stage of life.

Participant Stories

EVERY woman has a story to share. Each participant is invited to share her personal journey or the reasons for joining the project. These stories, ranging from bravery and perseverance to exploration and joy, are compiled into a publication, highlighting the diverse experiences and resilience of women 40 and over.

Partnership with Nevada Women's Fund and Scholarship

In collaboration with the Nevada Women's Fund, Ezell Images has established The Ezell Images 40 and Over Scholarship. 100% of the proceeds from the 40 Over 40 Book are donated to this scholarship, supporting women 40 and over who are seeking to return to school and further their education.
