PORTRAITS WITH A PURPOSE

A curated portrait and storytelling experience honoring women through Image, Voice and Legacy.

Hello!

I am Renata O'Donnell, founder and creator of "The Women's History Month Project". Every March, women from my local community and beyond come to my photography studio where I take their portraits, and interview them about their life story. I started this project to recognize and empower everyday women, and to inspire others around them, and it is incredible to see how this project has blossomed and evolved. I myself am continually inspired by the women who walk through my door every year. My passion for photography and my online platform help to give a voice to these incredible women, and it is an honor to share their unique stories.

So join me this year, and let's celebrate YOU!

WHAT IS WHM?

Women’s History Month is a celebration of women’s contributions to history, culture and society, and has been observed annually in the month of March in the United States since 1987.

WHAT IS THE WOMEN'S HISTORY MONTH CAMPAIGN?

PORTRAITS WITH PURPOSE - REDEFINING STRENGTH

The WHM Campaign is designed to highlight everyday women in our community: our neighbors, friends and colleagues that in so many ways contribute to our society.

Renata O'Donnell Photography will be celebrating this great time in our history throughout the month of March by honoring some of the fabulous women here in our community! This Campaign, now in its seventh year, continues to amaze me, as it has introduced me to so many inspiring women. It is an honor to capture each woman's beauty, strength and integrity behind my camera lenses. My photographs in turn, remind each woman of her own unique power.

So join us at O'Donnell Photography on this adventure, and let's celebrate Women's History Month together and showcase your legacy through Lens & Words!

We are looking for 20 women to participate in this one-of-a-kind photo experience designed to empower, uplift and celebrate YOU. Let my passion for photography shine a light on your individual story, and share its beauty with the world.

* Our favorite images will be showcased on our social media, website and blog, and you will be able to share them on your own platforms.

Are you ready to join us?
