What defines a Modern Day Lady?

I’m curious, what defines a modern day lady?

Is it the way she carries herself amongst her peers, the way she dresses, the amount of experience and intelligence she has, or the ability to bear children?

I was recently rejected from a job offer by two male interviewers because I lacked “recent experience”. I was on maternity leave for a year so I was not qualified for the Senior Business Analyst role. I felt judged and incredibly disappointed with the response. Forget equal opportunity in the workforce for a minute – how is that be possible when I worked at the company before and had same skill set and business experience?

So what makes a modern day lady? Can an intelligent modern lady still have children and go back to work?

New heights

Welcome to my own personal website and blog! As some of you know already, I’m the Director of Finessence photography studio where I specialise in both Weddings and Portraiture. However I realised one thing lacking….where do I get to feature my passion for fashion photography? It’s actually my side dish. I have to thank Alan (my hubby and business partner) for fulfilling my daily nags on getting this website quickly launched – I just needed a new haven for me to showcase my fashion work. Therefore I apologise that my website is still looking pretty bare. It’s still under construction so I hope in the next few weeks (after my well deserved break to Malaysia) that I get to post some of my latest and bravest fashion work. Feel free to leave me comments or some constructive feedback – I only want to keep learning! Thanks for visiting. Cheerio, Karen
