Glitzkrieg!
Pageant pictures are crazy: 
That said, I was a bit hesitant to get my first round of Mrs. Austin photos done. I had a fear that my first professional pageant photo would have to be decked out with fake eyelashes, impossibly perfect skin, and glass doll eyes:

So when I saw that Kathy Whittaker was offering a special, I promptly nabbed a spot, grabbed my crown and banner, and got my headshots done the day before I left for Indiana. Kathy is a photographer my talent agent recommends for acting headshots, and she happens to specialize in non-glitz pageant headshots. I love how they turned out:
Not bad, huh?
We're six months out from the Mrs. Texas pageant! Yikes. My first round of headshot are done. This just got really real.
