Since so many people here also know Piper from TFP shoots and other events, I wanted to let y'all know that she took the title in tonight's American Miss pageant.. she is now the new Miss Texas for Junior Teens (up to 16 year olds).

I'll post pictures later.. all I have at the moment is the headshot I did of her a couple months ago:

Although I never got to work with Piper I know she and Lar are very excited about this milestone in her career.

Congradulations to her and a big notch in your belt as well for being able to be there to capture the events as they occured.

Also congrads on the keys to the new place.

Please let me know if there is anything I can do to help...

Cool for her. But what is the real meaning of those events?

[brad]

The American Miss Pageant is more than just a "beauty" pageant.. its about girls empowering themselves to become the next generation of leaders.. they award presentation, professionalism, and academics.. They have organized community events where they raise money for charity, collect toys for the needy, and other fundraising. There were as many girls there that didn't fit the classic definition of "beauty" as there were that did... and many of those girls were in the 20 finalists.

No, I am not speaking for American Miss.. but I am impressed with the organization. They do a lot for girls and helping them remove the barriers that women face in our society. They strongly promote the idea that girls can grow up to be more than housewives and beauty queens.. that they can do anything they put their mind to.

Pageants have changed from what they were 20 years ago.. you should check it out.
