Jenny Bezzant became Mrs. Utah May 1, 2010. July 21-22 she will be running for Mrs. USA in Las Vegas. Her platform is Ascending in HOPE, giving voice to those who suffer in silence ~ Lyme Disease.
Lyme Disease is the leading immune disorder surpassing Aids in America and can Kill. She herself has Lyme Disease and getting the help and treatment she needs can be quite difficult, for any Lyme disease victim. Sites with more information include: www.lymemd.org, www.lyme.org, and as soon as Jenny's site is finished I will be including a link to it for you to go to as well.
I had a beautiful weekend shooting Jenny. She is not just beautiful outside but inside as well. Here is a sneak peak at her shots.
Jenny is such a trooper. She always explained the ordeal of Lyme Disease and attempting to get the help needed as feeling like you are drowning. We were able to capture that artistic view here:

This shot is one that she had pictured in her mind. Once that shows the peace and serenity one may feel once they finally get the treatment or help they need.

For me I love the serenity of a beach and chiffon in the wind.

Even stormy I still feel the calm...

Jenny is a mom of 7 beautiful children. She had 5 then was a surrogate mother to her brother & sister in laws twins. She was the first legal surrogate in Utah. Then she went on to adopt 2 more children. She and her husband are wonderful parents and partners. Even so a mom needs a break once in a while. I felt that this shot expressed our wonderful weekend together catching up and just enjoying a moment of peace. It also reminds me of the movie "Letters to Juliet" that she, Shannon, Megan, and I all watched together while she was here. If you have not seen it do!

Jenny is personable and hilarious. I love that she has a human side to her too. Often I have heard others explain how hard it is to reach that side of models and beautiful people. Jenny is just the opposite. She is one of the funnest persons you can know.

Anyone who knows me knows how much I love the beaches and water. It is my element. I am grateful that she understood my desire to take these next shots. It was fun, artistic, and beautiful!!! Just like her :) (She had a bathing suite on and was fully wrapped in chiffon.)



There are certain times in my life that I could live over and over again and my time here this particular weekend is one of those. I also had some amazing assistants. Pamela Matheus, Kaitlyn Freund, and my husband Nathaniel P. Wilkerson. Thank you everyone. I will do my best to bring you some more awesome images from our fantastic weekend. Meanwhile I hope you will take the time to educate yourself about Lymes. If you would like to sponsor Jenny in her efforts feel free to call her at 801-687-6448.
