The Red Hatters

For my final project in my photojournalism class I'm shooting the Red Hatters, members of the Red Hat Society. It's a social group of sorts for older women, so they can get together and have fun. They are characterized by their red hats and purple clothes. The idea is that they no longer care about fashion and societal norms and have fun wearing outrageous and silly hats. In fact, the Red Hat Society encourages fun, silliness, creativity, and friendship amongst its members. I've gone to a card game and out on the town with a Red Hat group this past week. They are a wonderful group of women and I enjoyed photographing them. Thank you ladies.
