One of my favorite parts of the Fabulously Over 40 Campaign is meeting women like Teri Black. Her story is one of resilience, love, and the unwavering power of a mother’s devotion.
At 54, Teri has walked through her share of challenges. As a single mother, she’s faced financial struggles while raising her son, often without the immediate support of her family, who live in California. Yet through it all, her heart remained focused on what mattered most—her son’s happiness and well-being.

Creating a Legacy Through Portraits
One of the most meaningful moments in Teri’s journey was fulfilling her elderly mother’s heartfelt wish: to have a beautiful portrait of Teri and her son proudly displayed on her wall. That wish led her to Paula N. Luu Photography.
From the moment she reached out, we made it our mission to ensure Teri felt seen, heard, and celebrated. “Every step, every question, and every milestone was handled professionally, and I felt as if Paula truly cared about my thoughts,” Teri shared. “She made me feel beautiful inside and out.”
When she presented the portraits to her mother, the joy and excitement on her mother’s face was beyond words. That moment—simple, yet profound—was a beautiful reminder of why capturing these memories matters.

More Than Just a Photoshoot
For Teri, participating in the Fabulously Over 40 Campaign wasn’t just about taking pictures. It was about embracing her own strength, honoring her journey, and stepping fully into her power.
“Women over 40 often embody a wealth of experience, confidence, and resilience,” Teri reflects. “This stage in life brings clarity, self-assurance, and a greater understanding of personal goals. Many women at this age leverage their knowledge and skills in both personal and professional arenas, often becoming leaders or mentors.”
Her story is a reminder that women over 40 are powerful, deeply loved, and capable of redefining what beauty and success look like. Through her participation, Teri challenged stereotypes and celebrated her own worth—something every woman deserves.

The Power of Being Seen
At Paula N. Luu Photography, we believe every woman has a story worth celebrating. As a Houston Branding Photographer, my goal is to create a space where women can reconnect with their inner power and see themselves through a lens of love and confidence.
Teri’s session was a testament to that. It wasn’t about perfection. It was about authenticity. About capturing the strength, love, and legacy she’s built through her life’s journey.
