40 OVER 40
WOMEN AGE 40 AND OVER, DESERVE TO BE SEEN AND CELEBRATED
Join me in this special photographic celebration of women who are 40 and over. I am looking for 40 women over 40 to showcase their beauty, their strength and confidence, which they gained through their lives and experiences.
Media stereotypes are conditioning us with what beauty should be, and who can celebrate it, but beauty should be ageless. We can change the narrative of how we define ageing if we come together.
Let’s empower the next generations of our daughters and granddaughters to look forward to grow older and gracefully age and break the stigma related with ageing.
Women over 40 deserve to be seen and celebrated.
Age is just a number, let’s prove it…
P.S. There will be a special exhibition at the end of this campaign to showcase all your beautiful images to your friends and family. Join me to change the narrative.
ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER, PAULINA SOBCZAK
I was unhappy with my job, my relationships were unsuccessful, and I was broken… At the age of 38 I quit my full time job, I tamed my inner critic to pursue my dream, my nearly 10 year side job, photography . I was so scared, but I did it anyway to fulfil my calling.
In order to help empower women through images of them, I knew I needed to look at myself closely and accept me for who I am, and to stop focusing on my imperfections but rather to magnify the beauty within.
My mission is to show women that they are the love, they are loved, that they are beautiful are perfect exactly as they are.
I help women to fall in love with themselves again through this transformational photography experience, so they can start living their best lives, create deeper relationship with themselves and people around them and to leave a legacy for the next generation to come.
Your 40 Over 40 Experience Includes:
Step 1. Phone or zoom conversation
During our telephone/zoom call/FaceTime conversation or email exchange, we are going to discuss what photo session you are interested in: boudoir photo session, headshot photo session, glamour, branding photo shoot or corporate'/business. I would like to learn a bit about you (if this is personal shoot) or about your business, if you are looking for branding/headshots or business photo shoot. This is very important for me, as I want to make sure to convey your values, your mission statement and who you are through your images.
Step 2. Wardrobe consultation
I will guide you on what clothing will suit you and your brand. You will find tips in my product guide, which I will send you by email, on what to wear. Together we will decide what works best for you/your brand.
There is an option to request for your photo shoot a professional stylist, who works with me on delivering exclusive styling experience. This includes creating your personal styling mood board, sourcing your outfits and styling you during your unique, personalised photo shoot experience.
Step 3. Make-up & hair styling
Each session begins with hair and makeup by a professional makeup and hair stylist. Your wardrobe will be carefully selected to achieve the look you desire. This luxurious experience is full of unlimited laughs and pampering, so make sure to book a lunch/dinner or a date, as you will look absolutely fabulous after your beauty photo shoot.
Step 4. Photo Shoot experience
Relax and enjoy your photo shoot experience, a glass of wine or simply glass of water, with your favourite song playing in during your photo session. It is my job to teach you how to be photogenic. I am going to walk you step by step through your photo shoot teaching you everything you need to know and do to look your best. You will love it and master posing, facial expressions, and best clothing highlighting your body figure. If you don’t want to take my word for it read my clients’ testimonials here.
Step 5. Reveal of your photos
Two weeks after the shoot, you will come back to the studio or we schedule zoom call to view your amazing photos. We will select your favourites and you only buy what you love. But you can’t blame me if you love them all, as it would mean I did my job well.
Step 6. Delivery and Photo Usage
Immediately after your images reveal you will receive your digital photos and you can start using them right away. From updating profile picture on LinkedIn, Facebook, Instagram or even your website to personal enjoyment of your images with your friends and family.
Each digital image you purchase comes with corresponding print. Fine art prints are going to be ready for your collection at least a month from your photo reveal session.

- Clients’ Testimonials -
“Me and my daughter were photographed by Paulina in the past, but this time I needed something only for myself. I decided to do her 40 over 40 campaign, as next year I am approaching my 40th birthday and I couldn't have imagined to celebrate it in any other way but to do a photoshoot of me for me. I didn’t know what I would wear or what makeup I would have, but I trusted that Paulina would advice me on that. I knew I could trust her judgement. And, oh my lord, she did such an amazing makeup and chose the clothing to ultimately highlight my best body features - my legs, my smile, my hair and eyes. These images came out incredibly beautiful. I look like a professional model on some of them, and trust me, I don’t know how to pose at all. Paulina guided me in such a way, that at some point I felt so much at ease during the shoot and I naturally started to pose. I truly couldn’t have been more happier with these images. Thank you Paulina so much for making me look at myself and feel so empowered with who I am. I highly recommend anyone Paulina’s services.”

“..so far out of my comfort zone it’s unreal.
After a rough few years I’ve been struggling to feel good about myself. I came across Paulina, who has a vision of taking photos of women to empower them to find self-love. Here are before and after shots! It was such a great experience, she is a fabulous woman and great at what she does!”
Amy, Mum of two
I have never had a professional photoshoot done until I was photographed by Paulina. I was very hesitant to have a photo shoot at age of 55 but I thought that I deserve to treat myself with beautiful images of me and to leave a legacy for my family.
Prior to the photo session we had our wardrobe consultation, where I’ve received so much advice on what type of clothing is best for my body type, and how to highlight my best features, that I felt already confident about the upcoming photo shoot. This photo experience was so incredible and I felt so taken care of, starting with makeup and hair styling and following the posing guidance step by step through the entire photo shoot. I never knew the poses were so important to create stunning images. And I always thought you have to be a professional model to do the shoot, but with Paulina’s guidance she showed me that all I needed to do is to follow her guidance to look beautiful and confident.
I took my husband for the reveal of my images and we loved them all. He was looking at me with so much pride and fondness and I felt really good about myself.
This whole photography experience taught me that you can age gracefully and still be happy with who you are.
I would highly recommend this photo shoot experience to every women.
