Too often, women over 40 become invisible
Careers, children, partners — everyone else comes first. You worked hard, grieved, struggled, celebrated wins and milestones... But somewhere along the way, you lost yourself.
This experience is for independent women who want to reclaim their power and their beauty.
If you’re navigating life after kids, starting over, building a new career, or simply want to be seen, this experience is designed for you.
Let's show the world that beauty does not diminish with age!
It is time to celebrate you, the way you are, because you deserve it.
Why EmpowerHer Portraits, why me, and why now?
There has never been a better time in history to be a woman over 40!
This is your moment to:
-
Celebrate your beauty, softness, and success with images worthy of display.
-
Capture the transition you’re living right now — and honor it.
-
Create timeless artwork that shows the many sides of who you are.
-
Be part of an exclusive, limited group of women featured in our 2026 The Next Chapter photo lookbook.
This could be you
You've done so much for everyone else. Take time for yourself, honour who you are, and get reminded of what it's like to feel confident, powerful, and beautiful!

The Vongue Art Photography experience is an exciting, pampering, indulgent adventure, custom-tailored and focused on YOU!
How do you want to be captured? What does your legacy look like? My passion is to give an everyday woman an unforgettable celebrity-style, magazine photoshoot experience.

Meet the photographer
Hi, I’m Veronica! I am a portrait photographer based in Toronto, and this is the most powerful portrait series that I have worked on with clients to date.
My mom raised me as a single parent, and she has always been my role model. Over the years, I admired her strength, her resilience, her wisdom... And realized that she never saw herself as beautiful as I saw her.
Myself, I used to struggle with self-image and self-esteem. Portrait photography completely transformed my perception of myself. It brought me confidence, comfort, and self-acceptance.
And that's what I want for you.
I started my portrait photography business because I wanted every woman to be able to enjoy this very special experience. I wanted to help them love themselves more.
The Next Chapter portrait experience is fun, fulfilling, freeing, and transformational. The REVOLUTION is within you... and I want to bring it out! Join me on this fun and incredible adventure.
I can’t wait to meet you!
Veronica
Take a look at everything included:
Style & Wardrobe Consultation
Not sure what you want? No problem! I'll "read your mind" by asking all the right questions and will tailor the session to your taste.
During out planning style & wardrobe consultation I will help you choose most flattering pieces from your wardrobe. We will explore examples and poses you like, and discuss whom you might want to include in your session.
Professional Makeup & Hairstyling
You'll start your experience by spending an hour getting pampered by our skillful on-site make-up artist (you meet her, you love her!)
Glammed up or soft & natural, it's all up to you! Light hairstyling is included for picture-perfect results.
Once you look and feel your best, your photo session will begin!
Celebrity Style
Photoshoot
Covergirl for a day! Prepare to enjoy a fully-guided magazine-style photoshoot. I will guide you through the posing and make you laugh, so the stress-free and fun process is guaranteed.
Not photogenic? It is not your job to be. I'll make you feel confident and comfortable in front of the camera, and capture your most flattering poses and expressions.
When I heard of Veronica’s initiative celebrating the beauty of mature women, it sparked an idea. I wanted to show that getting older is indeed getting better. That every decade is beautiful. Our society does not value age and it should!
Veronica was superb. I am not at all comfortable in front of a camera and as I get older, it seems worse. I’m so self-conscious of all my flaws, I can’t relax. Veronica made the whole process easy, smooth, and comfortable. She sent all kinds of tips for getting ready for the shoot, wardrobe selection etc. Then we had a wardrobe review video call where she helped edit my wardrobe choices. Finally, on the shoot day, the time in the studio, from hair, make-up, and wardrobe to the actual session itself, went by so quickly, I actually had a lot of fun. I didn’t want it to end.
The finished result, the photos themselves were remarkable. She really captured my essence. I’m proud to share the photos I’ve chosen and can’t wait to put a print up on the wall (something I have never considered before).
Thank you Veronica!
