What are the judges looking for during a pageant?

Here is what they will look for:

1.Personality( Try being real down to earth, natural, try being your true self, do not try to hard to impress anyone, be "YOU")

2. Smile :) at all times

3. Walk on stage should be well performed (Hint: try not to look down too much, practice at home, glide-do not be too stiff)

4. How do the contestant's answer each question(Hint: speak loud and clear)

5. Posture

Things to AVOID:

1. Looking down

2. While speaking "DO NOT" say: Umm...(instead pause for second, do not say- can I start all over?, do not say the word, "like". Unless it is being using it within reason. Such as a sentence like this: My cat is like my rabbit, because they both have fur. They are both similar and this is why you are using the word, "like".

3. Do not use profanity: try to refrain from profanity such as the words: Stupid, dumb, words that might offend others etc...

How to prepare for a photoshoot

Are you prepare for your photo shoot?

First, here are some things you must know prior to going to a photo shoot

Always wear sleeves for tops. It can be short sleeves or long sleeves.

Always avoid logos, this can prevent any type of law sue towards you.

Always avoid white, the color white is too bright and it can reflect off the camera, which would wash out your figure etc...

Always bring 2 sets of clothes for each category: Casual, formal, business, and bikini(if you are doing this type of shoot only)

Avoid patterns, this can distract the viewer from your face

Avoid all black, this color is harder to work with. However, if you must wear it. Try to wear it with colorful colors

Always get enough rest prior to your shoot. This will show through your photo and it can affect your pictures.

Never do a "NO SHOW". The last thing you want is to be black listed.

Always, be 15 mins early.

Always make a courtesy call if you can not make your shoot on time

Always give a 24 hour notice if you are not going to make the shoot at all. This is so that they can fill your spot with another person that might have been on their waiting list. It also helps you not get blacklisted.

Make sure you choose a variety of colors such as: pink,blue,red, yellow, etc...Also, must fit not too baggy or too tight
