From " Everyday Lovely " to " Oooo, la-la ! "
" What if you
just decided right now,
that you are good enough?
That, my friend, is a Revolution "
I am Val Carr, Portrait Artist and Owner of
Urban Couture Photography.
I am based out of my beautiful studio in
Des Moines Iowa & I travel worldwide.
I have recently turned 50, and in stepping into this new chapter of life
I have come to realize that we are stronger and better together.
The Over Fifty Revolution
was born out of an awareness that we are often under & misrepresented in the media.
And in OUR OWN LIVES.
We are disregarded and made to feel that somehow over a certain age,
we have nothing important left to offer...
NO MORE!
You and I both know this is not true!
I want all of my fabulous 50 + ladies to be a part of this Revolution of self-love, self-care and empowerment!
This is an opportunity for connection, transformation & celebration of self.
Listen, I know it is hard to put yourself out there...it takes courage.
I also realize that deep inside there is a longing to be accepted. To be a part of something bigger. To be valued.
To LIVE OUR BEST LIFE!
To let people know what you have been through and you made it and look how far you've come!
To express our hopes and dreams and plans that are yet to be!
To say I AM BEAUTIFUL. I MATTER. I AM ENOUGH.
Today. Right now.
As a visual storyteller, my goal is create the most beautiful images
you have seen of yourself and provide a platform to express yourself.
And we will have a blast doing it!!
Do this for yourself.

THERE ARE NOW MORE PEOPLE AGED OVER 50 THAN EVER BEFORE…
…accounting for 35% of the population. This group is too big to be ignored, too experienced not to be listened to, and too beautiful not to be celebrated. It’s time to start a REVOLUTION, LADIES! I would love you to join me on this adventure to share the common bond of being 50 and over.
I am creating stunning portraits of 50 women over the age of 50 (50’s, 60’s, 70’s 80’s and beyond) culminating in an exhibition and celebration with these women and their stories.
A CELEBRATION OF THE DIVERSITY, STRENGTH, BEAUTY, ESSENCE AND WISDOM OF WOMEN.
Through the 50 Women OVER 50 project, we can…
-
Show that beauty doesn’t diminish with age.
-
Highlight your character, wisdom and spirit.
-
Tell your story about what it means to be an older woman in today’s world.
-
Celebrate your beauty and appreciate every scar, every line and every grey (or purple!) hair.
Whether you feel invisible, empowered or somewhere in between, know that You are Loved & Needed & Your Story is Important! We intend to disrupt & transform the way we are viewed (or forgotten) by the media and the world at large by putting out beautiful, authentic images and real stories of ourselves.
This is your chance to be seen and heard!

WHY OVER 50, WHY ME AND WHY NOW?
I started my portrait and boudoir photography business after I turned 50 and I wanted to create something very special as a gift for all women to enjoy.
It will be fun, fulfilling and transformational. The REVOLUTION is within you...and I want to bring it out! Join me on a fun and incredible adventure.
