She’s sweet and refreshing like watermelon in June. She pops and sparkles like fireworks in July. She’s fun and cool like the beach in August. She’s an all-American girl and summer is her time. Miss Amelia is a ten-year-old aspiring pageant queen, and a friend of ours whom we’re extremely proud of. She’s a State Finalist in this month’s National American Miss Arizona Pageant. She’s a model student at her elementary school. She earns excellent grades, plays sports and instruments, and participates in student government. Through generous sponsors and a lot of hard work and saving, she raised enough money to enter herself into the competition and pay her own expenses. That’s one heckuva ten-year-old!
Miss Amelia will compete in three categories next week: Formal Wear, Casual Wear, and Miss Photogenic. She’ll also have to give a prepared speech to the audience and answer a question from a panel of judges. We tested her with a few questions of our own, and we’re confident she’ll outperform Miss Utah! We felt so honored that Miss Amelia hired us to take her head shots for this special occasion. She was poised, confident, and professional with every sound of the shutter. The camera couldn’t get enough of her! Her images will be entered into the Miss Photogenic portion of the competition, and we couldn’t be more excited part of Team Amelia!
Miss Amelia, you are beautiful inside and outside. You are bright and bold. We loved every minute working with you, and we’re so excited about what’s to come. We’ll be cheering you on with every step of the runway and, just remember, if you get stuck during the question and answer section, “world peace” works every time…
