Subject Author Date No joke. Zoom in around her head. (NT) No name 19:33:15 12/09/24 Mon Who? (NT) -- No name, 07:47:03 12/10/24 Tue Not sure who this post was in reference too.. but the last few days some of these head shots are killing me with the airbrush and photo shop. Sure they look pretty but they don’t look real. It’s almost toddlers and tiaras level with the “perfect” look. Just an opinion… I don’t think it’s a wise choice for headshots that are submitted for state ; but again who am I to judge.

I’ve seen several by different “wanna be” photographers. I think they are just using AI now7 to edit and it’s so bad. (NT) No name 03:21:01 01/04/25 Sat Aside from Matt Boyd, who are the "go to" photographers now? (NT) No name 09:32:58 01/05/25 Sun Carlos Velez, Austin Ryde, Kristy Belcher, Matt Boyd (NT) -- No name, 18:08:48 01/05/25 Sun Velez is in Orlando, Ryde-LA, Belcher-Nashville & Boyd is in Atlanta. Each are about $800 for 2 looks with hair/makeup + time/expense of travel. How much does the photogenic award pay and what percent of scoring is it? (NT) -- No name, 06:38:07 01/07/25 Tue Who cares. The photos is the first thing the judges see, so most girls want them to be high quality and show them in their best light possible. (NT) -- No name, 09:16:45 01/07/25 Tue Agree, the photo is usually the first impression. Pageantry is not cheap. (NT) -- No name, 17:51:47 01/07/25 Tue In NC I would say Jillian Marie Beauty or I’m sure a few have gone to Ashley Tart (NT) No name 15:02:01 01/06/25 Mon Ashley Tart might be good with hair and makeup, but what does she know about photography? Try Karl DeBlaker. He's wonderful. (NT) -- No name, 15:15:04 01/06/25 Mon Well this reply right here answers the question of who started this thread… -- No name, 20:11:26 01/06/25 Mon Ha may have asked the question, but it's probably a legitimate one. What DOES she know about photography? What kind of education and training does she have in the field? (NT) -- No name, 07:19:13 01/07/25 Tue Everyone starts somewhere. Every photographer (or any other professional) was once a “wanna be” in their field. Every girl competing for a title is a “wanna be” title holder. Thats a strange comment. Just be nicer. (NT) -- No name, 17:12:09 01/07/25 Tue Yes, and most professionals, photographers included, have actual education and training. But if you're ok going to a trained monkey who was taught to push a button, then more power to you. (NT) -- No name, 08:17:31 01/08/25 Wed What is it any of your business what training she has had? She obviously has had training of some kind. Her work is good. -- No name, 16:36:53 01/20/25 Mon Mediocre. She should stick to hair and makeup. She does a great job with that. (NT) -- No name, 18:04:02 01/20/25 Mon I think you're seeing a reflection of this generation of girls that believe you have to be Instagram and Ai filtered to be pretty which is so far from the truth. At some point you might as well take a photo of a poreless plastic baby doll and turn that in as a photo of you. Maybe its time for the organization to step in and put down some guidelines and restrictions. (NT) No name 13:53:52 01/08/25 Wed
