PHOTOS: Miss Arizona USA 2013 – Behind the Scenes

This past weekend I had the incredible opportunity to attend the Miss Arizona USA 2013 pageant in beautiful in Phoenix, AZ…with an “all-access backstage pass” — thanks to Executive Director, Britt Boyse — with the Miss Arizona USA titleholders, contestants, and staff.

All weekend I kept everyone plugged in with what was going on behind-the-scenes with live photos and updates over Twitter.

In case you missed it…

…I’ve included a gallery below with the photos and captions of events happening LIVE during the entire weekend including the contestants welcome party, rehearsals, preliminaries, finals and of course crowning the the new Miss Arizona USA 2013 – Rachel Kasang and Miss Arizona Teen USA 2013 – Olivia Argue.

Thanks again to Britt and Jessica of Casting Crowns Productions for the amazing hospitality all weekend, and to the wonderful contestants and titleholders that made my visit to Arizona an exciting and memorable experience!
