WOW is all I can say!! -- Anonymous, 17:39:23 12/17/02 Tue

I am sorry but I must admit I have NEVER been a big fan of SW's pictures and have quite honestly, quite often wondered how she won so many photo contests. I am NOT bashing this child, you will see that I did NOT say anything bad about her. I have just always thought her pictures were just okay and that others had way better pictures. Now with that said I must now eat crow because I have just seen one of the prettiest pictures that I have EVER EVER seen and OMG it belongs to SW. If she does not kick some major butt with that pic then something is wrong. Go look if you do not believe me. http://www.pageantsite.net/photofile/savannaW1.jpg

This contest has some tuff comp and I'm sure glad I did not enter. There are a lot of pretty pics and I do agree with you that SW has an awesome shot with the very pic you mentioned.

I've always liked Savanna's photos but this one is not my favorite, by far. Especially the black and white version because whoever turned the photo didnt realize it made the face out of focus. Even in the color, the position of her face and the sweater (one shouldered ?) gives me an urge to reach out and keep the child from falling.. LOL.. She has amazing photos and is definitely a favorite in this contest.

OMG so sad I wasted my $$$ and entered!! Way too many good pics for us to stand a chance. Really glad my kid ain't in 7-9 thought cause the grand is coming from there Rebecca or Hilary). I thought I had the grand pegged. I liked #4g Hilary the best of all pics entered and thought it was the grand hands down but OMG when I clicked on it to admire it I noticed the strangest thing with her teeth. I am not bashing here I still think that picture is good and the child looks gorgeous in it but I want to make sure this is not my eyes messing with me. Is there something wrong with her teeth? It looks like a bad mouthpeice or a bad touch up job it looks like one of her front teeth has a big chip in the top of it or like their is a big slanted line that didn't get filled in or the peice doesn't fit just right. Help is it just me seeing this?

I see what you are talking about, but it just looks like it's something from the scan to me. It's a great pic and one of my favorites in the contest.

BFI 0-5 -- Anonymous, 20:57:49 12/16/02 Mon

Facially the obvious ones are Victoria, Savannah and Delaney. I don't know what in the world a couple of those are doing there, not that they are not pretty, they are gorgeous in some of their other photos, but NOT those. And I don't know how that one pic got in there, notice I said pic, not kid.

Is it the norm for pics to win just because of pretty eyes doesn't the face count for anything ? -- Anonymous, 08:04:05 12/16/02 Mon

Obviously, the face don't mean squat anymore. My gosh people do you think we are that stupid? When you say facial, then it becomes much more opinion based, and personal. If your child doesn't make it, then you know they didn't like your child's face, not the pic necessarily. Also, when it is facial, even though it falls more on opinion and an issue of taste and preference, the rest of us have eyes too and can clearly see when a contest is unjust. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder, and some can see better than others.lol but the rest of the world is not totally blind and in some cases you can tell it is not just an opinion, it is just wrong with no doubt.

THIS IS A WARNING ABOUT DEANNA MEREDITH, PHOTOGRAPHER! -- Anonymous, 12:55:03 12/14/02 Sat

This is just a message to warn everyone of this louse! Never met her & never will! She did pocket $350 of mine & right before Christmas!!!She had a shoot scheduled, & backed out less than 24 hours before shoot! She is pathetic, a big piece of lieing scum & I hope she rots in her grave very slowly! She picked the wrong person to SCAM! I will haunt her lousy soul 4ever! Made my daughter cry all night because she cancelled this shoot! I booked 4 weeks in advance & that disease ridden broad, cancels!!!BEcause she is to greedy for peoples money & took it out on me when other people cancelled this shoot! And you know the unprofessional thing, She never returns my calls!!!She must be on drugs if she thinks I wont get her for credit card scam!!!!And I heard her H&M artist is an alcoholic, always drunk for shoots. Sometimes the stuff you hear is true & it really isnt rumors. So all you moms or dads or gaurdians looking for a photographer, DO NOT DO NOT GO with this cockroach! You will be sorry! And wont it be a MERRY Christmas for my 2 kids when there mom has lost this money for no reason!!!

it is your own fault. How Merry of a Christmas would they have had if you had attended the photo shoot? What kids wants pageant pictures taken for a Christmas gift? If you didn't have the money to spare you shouldn't have scheduled the shoot no matter what. Of course you don't sound like a very smart person anyway. Broad? Do people who live outside of low class bars use that word anymore? Again, you have no one but yourself to blame for blowing 350.00 on a pageant photo shoot rather than give your kids a decent Christmas.

wouldnt you have been out the money either way?
I mean you spent the money on the pics right? so even if you had them taken thats where the money would have gone. Not to christmas presents. sounds more to me you are just angry cause she canceled and are ruining her name because of it. Maybe ifyou are that upset you should get off the boards and go contact your credit card company or however you paid and try to get your money back. it certainly would be a more effective use of your time. also did you ever think maybe she is rescheduling the shoot?

I do not have a kid entered and never did so this is not a bash at all, I am just wondering why in the 0-5 Paige's pic is smaller than the rest and in the 6 & up Andi's and Caitlin's photos are smaller than the rest. I will post my top 5 in each if I can narrow it down, such beautiful girls.
