Miss USA came home from one of the biggest events in beauty; the Miss USA Pageant held in Reno, Nevada! I got the amazing opportunity to shoot the homecoming of Charlotte local, Cheslie Kryst, and she came home to a proud city. She’s from Charlotte and tons of people came out to see her and congratulate her.

A few of her pageant friends, like the stunning Miss Louisiana and other Miss North Carolina beauties, joined the fun and all the girls were warmly welcomed by the Charlotte community. The shoot was held at Mackenzie Jades Formal Wear, known for their prom, pageants, and wedding gowns, and it was simply beautiful. Cheslie kindly did signing and pictures and it was such a lovely event.
