Feature #6: It Is Never Too Late To Feel Beautiful, or To Be Courageous (Perseverance)

I have posted a few times about my cousin Tracey who is 52 and has boldly put herself out there in various contests against much younger women. You can catch up with previous posts in this series: guest blog, interview, Q and A, and the very first feature in this series . She recently got first place in an online Most Photogenic Contest by B. Buzz Mag. Congratulations!

I will let her speak for herself in their feature article. (some mobile devices may have difficulty with the link)

You are never too old to try something daring; you are never too young to be inspired to take those steps you’ve been afraid to take.

It takes a lot of courage to try something you've always wanted, but were scared to try for so long.

Be inspired!

Tracey’s personal statement: I am a 52 year old floral designer. For most of my life I’ve been someone’s daughter, wife, mother, employee. A few years ago, an unexpected, very welcome infusion of confidence and courage led me to modeling for several area photographers, and I’m having a wonderful time! I want to be chosen for the cover of EM because I want everyone to see that a mature, ordinary working woman can be extraordinary with the right attitude and a little confidence.
