With more than 40 years of winning showmanship and talents and more than 10 years of photography, styling, and production and you have a coach that understands what it takes to win and guides you each step of the way. Mary O. has coached winning pageant girls at all levels and has a unique mindset in her coaching style. It's not enough to just win the crown. You must also be able to use your pageant skills in real-world situations. It is this philosophy that brings pageant girls from across the state to work with her in person.

Digital copies are delivered to your email typically within 48 hours. Your competition print, mounted and coated for its protection arrives in about a week! No more guessing on lab printing quality, Mary O.'s professional lab has been creating professional high-quality prints for more than 40 years and Mary O. has been partnered with them for more than 10 years!
Model Photo Shoot Training

Top Model, Super Model, Cover Girl... Whatever your pageant system calls it, the competition photoshoot lasts minutes! you get no coaching, or direction in the camera room. You are on your own and working against the clock. That shoot can either go really well offering you a wealth of material for the judges to score or it can go really poorly and every image is virtually the same.
