“Absolutely my perception of attractiveness has shifted. Attractiveness is not a physical characteristic, it's an energy that someone emanates. It has a magnetic quality and it causes you to want to lean toward that person, lean in, listen deeper, see clearer, understand more thoroughly. It's all encompassing versus one tangible characteristic.” Michelle Rios was interviewed and photographed in 2022 at the age of 55 by Photographer Rachel Hadiashar at the studio in Sherwood, Oregon.

“The things that are most attractive to me now are more about what's on the inside vs. the outside. A person's presence that exudes self awareness and acceptance, emotional safety, a hint of playfulness and being comfortable in their own skin rather than having to achieve some model of perfection that's not joinable or relatable. Don't get me wrong, a strong sense of style is still something that catches my eye but it's more about 'owning' it vs. wearing it.” Lani Faith was interviewed and photographed in 2022 at the age of 58 by Photographer Rachel Hadiashar at the portrait studio in Sherwood, Oregon.
