None of my pictures are professional, and most have been taken by my friend who is a beginner in a photography class.. I realize they do not compare to the professional and "classy" photos others contestants submitted.. As for the "whore look", as far as I know - sex sells.. If that's not obvious, lets take a look again at my competition... most are cupping their bare breasts while arching their backs. If that's what's considered classy in comparison to my amateur photos, maybe I'll work on my make-up and try again next year. And in my own defense, I am not a whore and I do not walk around in full pornstar make-up all day long. I'm also not a retard from FL who can't spell. If this Maxim competition was based on intellect and wit , I assure you I'd be in the top 3. Thank you for the critcism, regardless of whether or not it was given with cruel intent.. Everyone else, thank you for your support. <3
