I am Marguerite, the photographer, artist, writer and, founder at 50 and Rising. I live in Lisbon, Portugal, a city that’s become close to my heart.

About 50 and Rising
Life took an exciting turn in my late 50’s when I decided to take time off for a long trip.

I traveled across the UK and Europe and shared stories with many women who were going through similar experiences and feelings that I was.

We talked about being single after 50, divorce, marriage, cooking, hobbies and more. They inspired me to keep going, keep looking and to stay curious! And so I started 50 and rising.

Now, I share stories about living deliciously after the age of 50.
