Pageant Headshots, Portraits, & Close-Ups | How To Maximize Your In-Studio Glam Photography Session 

Hello! I followed some of your videos on pageant poses, twists and turns, transitions, what type of heels to purchase, and on and on for around 2 weeks before my pageant...and I won! Thank you so much for all the knowledge you shared and all of the tips you gave; it was the reason behind my success. I hope you will never stop making these videos because they are like the flashlight in the darkness for beginners like me. You explain everything very clearly and I'm still going to use your tips for other stage performances! Thank you again! You're amazing!

You are the best pageant channel I've seen! I love how you explain things in detail. Very helpful.

Perfect timing - getting my headshots in less than a week!! AWESOME video 😍🙌🏼

Love your "3 dresses" photos! Great tip.

Hi miss cristal hope you notice I've been watching your videos using your tips and it really helps a lot I actually have a pageant this coming dec. 17 and I think your tips on how to walk and do poses made me nail the screening thank u so much

Hey Crystal. I've just started my modelling journey and your videos are really helping me a lot . I'm so grateful GOD BLESS YOU ❤❤❤😢

Im not even a pageant, but somehow came across your channel. Watched and loved your videos on posing, walking. And i downloaded the colour change app you recommended on this vid. It's very easy to use and practical. Thank you 🌸🌼

Just came here to say that I’ve been watching your videos for a little while and I love them!! I took home 1st in my pageant last night!! It was the last time I got to compete before aging out! I made a playlist with your videos and shared it with two younger girls I was helping and one took home 2nd in her category and the other got 1st!!!💕💕💕 You’ve been a great help!💕 Thank you!!💐

You are my favorite pagents mentor in you tube 🥰........I have learned many things from your video specifically pagents walk, turn , posing 😊.....thanku so much 😘

You are so helpful.

Thank you for the tips, love those hair flying with the fan, Stay safe & God bless you.

"fifteen blouses for a three look session" You're my kind of model. Great video.

Wonderfully narrated, Crystal.

Thank you! for these amazing tips mam.

Thank you!!!!

Thank you so much...

Wow so beautiful❤.

Thank you so much! Getting my headshot done this month! This was really helpful✨✨

Hey Crystal, great video and VERY informative! I actually would love to show your video to all my pageant clients, HOWEVER, there are a couple tips that you give that I feel are a dis-service to photographers like myself. First, never ask for RAW photos from a photographer. If the photographer can't deliver the final product that you desire, then go with someone else. Asking for RAW images is like asking a baker for just the ingredients and not the final cake. Most photographers that I know will not give these up anyway, but its rude to ask and you may get blacklisted by that photographer. The second thing is... NOT to edit the photos that a photographer gives you. I know that many apps will allow you to edit endless changes to a photo, and that is fine if you have either taken your own photo or purchased the copyright to a photo, which is usually VERY expensive. Most photographers give you a license to use a photo the way it is presented. Always ask the photographer if they can deliver multiple iterations of the photo for you. This way, when you post edits to your original photo, you won't get in trouble with the photographer or get blacklisted. I know this may sound harsh, but is the truth in the professional photography world. Lesser known photographers or friends with a camera may not care as much, but as a professional photographer, we protect our work and reputation. I wish I could share this video without those two sections.

You are doing an incredible job🥺❤️

i really learn to this yt channel thankyousomuch

Awesome

Hey cristal!. I'm 16 and I want to compete in my first ever pageant beauty contest. Please can you make a video on what to and not to do during the runway walk? I'm still confused about the type of walk to do and if or if not permitted to do a little dance move at the edge of the runway. Thanks for reading my request..much love!!

You are the best

How sweet of u.....!! I have literally watched all of ur videos and noticed that u reply to all of ur comments on videos.....ur such an angle plus so beautiful 😍😍😍🥰💖love from India from julie

Wow this is wonderful

Hi crystal, i am thinking of giving pageants one more try (a third time) and i loved this video! I had no idea what I was really doing the first two times I started pageants. I have 1 more yr til I age out my next pageant is in a few months and I'll be sure to watch and rewatch all your videos! 💕

Omg You looked so gorgeous on those pics I was not able to remove my eyes from you...it was stanning ❣️😘😍 And Thank you very much it helped a lot... I will be waiting for your next Video and in the same time I am super excited for it....Love from India...❤️🇮🇳

Just a heads-up most photographers will not just give you raw files under any circumstances.

Thank you so much ma'am . Your videos are of great help for pageant preparation. It's a humble request ma'am kindly make a video on preparation schedule. Being a beginner, it would help me a lot to set my goals and work accordingly in a chronological order and also prepare for the pageant in limited time.

Crystal pleasssseee we need more vids frmmm uuuuu! ur the nly one plss

This is the best headshot anyway

Wow thank u❤️

hey make a video on the movement of hips and waist in a pageant walk in detail l and also on making a portfolio, types of images, etc. we would love to see your portfolio and pictures

Hey Crystal, your content is awesome, we learned so many things, walk, interview i love your videos. Please upload a new video, m gonna give audition for a pagent need uh 😢

Thank you for sharing! I have black hair and so if I wear red for instance with a white background would that be fine?

I have a question what color dress is the best for a pageant if you have blonde/brown hair and blue eyes

Which types of questions may be asked during pageant auditions

hi! i was thinking of competing in miss America outstanding teen but i have never done a pageant before, is that a bad idea?

My pageant starts soon

How should ur legs bend cause I feel like thiers something am doing wrong

What type of jeans we should wear if we have skinny legs

the linkedin pic i laughed ahhaha

hey crystal, i have a pageant coming up in about 2 months. But i have braces will this become a problem? I havent seen alot of pageant girls with braces :) thanks!

Hey crystal ❤️ Just a question , Nowdays I hear a lot of people say that almost all the international pageants they are all money games and the contestants that wins are the one who has big endorsements, big brands and big names What do you think about ?? Does it even matter ??

Love the tip about micro movements! Coco Rocha does the same and she can do like 50 poses in 2 minutes.

When are you uploading more videos on pageantry

Hey ik you don’t really post anymore but by any chance could you do a teen interview question video, like just ask a question and give us 30 sec to answer then just keep doing that? I am competing in a miss America teen prelim this year for the first time so this would help a lot! If you don’t want to post anymore I understand, just let me know ❤

Hey can we use instant body whitening spray in pageants

Mam plz make a video on lava walk Soo much love from India

Waiting for new video mam. Where are you mam

For participating in pageants whats is more important sports or dance?? As I am confused that what should I learn for pageants can you plss give me a suggestion .mam can u please reply to me as its for my career 🥺🥺.

When Crystal Lee was standing holding hands with Nina Davuluri....the host comes and asks her how are you feeling??... Crystal Lee:- Aa...Aa.....Aah..Aah. . I still remmber watching that 😀

What kind of questions do the emcee usually ask

Hello❤ How can I stand out in pageants when I am the shortest contestant ?

0:52

I need help! Im doing pageants, and I’m good on stage but we do group judging and I have no clue what to do during this time. Can you make a video on what to do or respond to this comment.

Do you cooperate with Bello Models Academy Company in Paris?

Hi, I am having my close door meeting with my pageant judges tomorrow, can you help me with any close door interview tips?

Please also make a video on how to convence conservative parents for pageantry

Hey can I join the pageant

You are so beautiful dii 😘

I want answer of my question

I have gaps in my teeth and I have never seen a pageant having gaps so 'm worried that I might not make it due to this pls give some guidance. Also I don't want a treatment bcz I was born this way and inherited these from my father.

💋💋😘😘😘

Can we shoot on our own ? 😭

Another good topic is What underwear should we wear for different types of gowns.when wearing a swimsuit to avoid camel toe,when wearing for example a red dress do we wear red briefs incase of a malfunction,and to hide nipples etc

Hello, Crystal, I really hope you are well. I haven't seen you upload new videos, so I was worried. I have a few questions I wanted to ask you. Is there a way for me to contact you in an email?

I am Debolina Saha from India.. I am preparing myself for Ms.India. For me only way to learn the things needed is through youtube as i cannot afford a pageant trainer. I learnt many things from your videos and others as well but still i need a person who will guide me and with whom i can discuss my preparations and queries. I cannot share my dream with my family because they will never allow me to do it and if they come to know about this they will make sure that i never get to prepare myself. So i will not let them know about it till there is no other way. I would be really grateful if you can be the person i need . I am really confused. Looking forward to your reply.. plzz help me..

Hi 👋

If you ask for RAW images, expect a larger fee.

What happened to this channel? It sure was unique 😢

Also you didn’t give us the app for editing our dresses

When you watch all the video, early and still don't know what to comment😞... I'm just gonna say thank you though for all these tips
