Grace Hartzel
Task 1-
https://fashioneditorials.com/wp-content/uploads/2016/09/ELLE-France-August-2016-Grace-Hartzel-by-Steven-Pan-2.jpg One thing I’ve loved during this competition is discovering myself, I remember right from the beginning of week 1 I talked about how in a room full of ballerinas I was the odd one out, I was different because I’m not prim and proper I’m ECCENTRIC, a ROCKER, and a CONFIDENT model. This photo describes me to a T because with the awkward position I’m in I’m able to show no pain on my face, just confidence and control.
Task 2-

I’m serving masculinity with a mesmerizing and unable to look away eye contact.
Task 3-
https://sugareal.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/03/tumblr_omcjdroj8z1vstnjqo6_540.jpg I wanted to bring bright eye colours with red as the main one but also minor ones to tie in everything together. With this pose and facial expression I’m giving you guys power, boldness and a look that says “DO NOT MESS WITH ME”. I’m so focused that I am going for the crown!
Task 4:
https://imgur.com/a/IUQbkLf This is the finale and I wanted to bring an end to my story of self-growth because in this photo I’ve emerged into a ballerina, but I’m doing so in my own way! Although this is the end in the competition I feel like I’ve grown so much that after this I would have a new beginning and be the best model I can be with the amount of confidence and power this competition has given and shown me.
Hi Judges! I know at the beginning of this competition shall I say week 1 I was not at that memorable and I placed into the middle pack. But, with the critiques I got that week I decided to switch up my game and just go for it! Which I was able to in week 2 and 3 as I received glowing compliments and scores. Those moments truly showed me that I needed to continue to keep on working to reach where I am today. In no way do I feel like I’ve coasted through this show, even after multiple models quit because I was able to remain here because of how new and refreshing my shots are. I’m a versatile and professional model wherever I go and no matter the shoot. I know I faded a bit in these coming weeks but I was able to dominate the finale part 1 and secure my spot right here! Throughout this competition I’ve won 2 challenges and 3 best photos even with strong models such as Natalia, Taylor, Garrett, Mia and Manu. So this is why I deserve to win this competition!!!
