73-year old grandma stuns with edgy photos

This sensational Chinese grandmother has stunned local news sources with a glamourous and edgy photo shoot.

Huang Yanzhen, from China's Fujian province, Xiamen, has been exploring areas of the country that she has dreamed of visiting since retiring. After a life devoted to her children, she is documenting her travels in the most fabulous way possible.

The 73-year-old can be seen donning colourful clothing to pose in coffee shops, riding a Harley Davidson, and walking her dogs with more street style than a Hollywood movie star.

The photographer Jesse Ding, 31, told MailOnline that he got to know the grandmother through his godmother, and expressed his admiration of her.

“'In the shooting, she was very supportive of me and I am hoping more people can see these photos so that Chinese elderly ladies can be seen as elegant and rich” he told the publication.
