40 over 40 Project

About the Project:

This project is about empowering and celebrating women in business! Women-owned businesses are still in the minority, and the hurdles faced by women in entrepreneurship are vast and often very different from those experienced by their male counterparts. Women face barriers such as limited funding and gender biases. They also battle societal stereotypes around taking care of their home and children and therefore struggle with work-life balance.

Yet, despite all of these hurdles, women entrepreneurs are raising the bar, breaking glass ceilings, and contributing successfully to our Canadian economy.

To celebrate these mighty warriors and inspire other women in business through their stories, I will be photographing and interviewing 40 women that own their own businesses.

The experience will include a full makeover by my professional hair and makeup artist and a guided portrait session with me.

After this project is complete, I will hold a Gala showcasing the portraits of each woman photographed. It will be a night celebrating everyone involved, with food, drinks and a possibly a silent auction!

What our clients say

Nabeela is extremely professional and is amazing with kids. She is talented and her work is out of this world! She responded to my questions immediately and spent lots of time with our daughter and didn’t rush us during the shoot. She is creative and innovative as you can see from her work. She has many ideas and brings them to life. I will definitely be using her for future family pictures. I recommend her to all my family and friends. You will definitely be happy!! Thank you Nabeela for everything.

Shaila Jiwa

Thank you Nabeela! Great job. When I first contacted her for my son’s cake smash I was a bit hesitant because she had never done the the theme I wanted but still I chose her because even before booking with her she would reply to all my answers nicely. It’s just 5 mins since I got the pics and I am already here rating her work. It’s beyond what I expected. I just LOVE LOVE her work. Thank you for making my son’s birthday a memorable one. I wish you more success in your work.

Sheetul Chady

I couldn’t be happier with the way our photos turned out.  Not only were they photos of our family, they were photos that represented the 9 months that my daughter was in this world vs the 9 months she was inside of me.  Nabeela is truly an artist and I am so thankful to have these photographs to last a lifetime.  Than you again and I can’t wait to see you for Scarlett’s cake smash!!
