Hemline Photoshoot!

Whoohoo! Yay to Jenny Wheat of Wheat Photography here in KC for having the fastest turnaround on pictures I have ever, ever seen! I had a blast working with Jenny, Ruth, Chelsie (the other model who is only 17!) and the lovely ladies from Hemline yesterday. I am thinking that our work turned out pretty well!

Pics!

Waaaaay back in May I did a shoot with a photographer from Chicago (I think) here in KC. I finally got the pictures! Yay! While they are not the glam stuff of Miss USA, I am surprised how much I like so many of them. You can take a peek and decide for yourself.
Mwah!

Good Luck Alex!

I want to wish my friend Alex Miller good luck tonight at Miss Kansas America! I'm glued to my computer hoping to find out how she is doing!
Good luck to all the girls in Missouri competing at the MO Military Academy as well!

Miss KS in the big city

Today was a little adventure for me, as I flew out to Chicago! I came to meet with ELITE Model Management here as I had met with one of their agents in KC this last fall. All in all it went well and I have two photo shoots in my short visit here. Going into the booking room at Elite to meet MY booking agent was very surreal. You see this sort of thing on tv and in movies and it was real for me. Let me tell you it was a dream come true even if I do have to go back on the diet! Plus, I did have some time to see Navy Pier and Michigan Ave. I am having a great time but it is so weird to be here by myself!
I'll try not to let all this fame get to my head. Joke.

Thank you thank you thank you to Andy for being such a help this morning. You know how some stuff stresses me out (aka the airport) and you totally prevented it. I'm thankful.

No Way! I got props on my dress and didn't even know!!


Check out the whole article from Project Runway's Nick Verreos

"There are some gowns in this years Miss USA 2009 which I did like---mainly because they didn't have any crotch-high slits and had a resemblance to maybe something we might see on an actual red carpet or on the runways of New York and Paris. I was surprised by Miss Kansas' choice of a white gown with a beaded halter neck detail. She was COVERED!!! Hurray! But maybe the judges won't like this. I think she looks very elegant and almost Grace Kelly-like."
