May.(You can see some of those photos in the &#8220;SPORTS&#8221; section of this blog.) \u00a0We have stayed in touch since then and I have been so happy to see her doing so well in both gymnastics as well as acting\/modeling! \u00a0McKayla and her mom happened to be in town for an autograph signing a couple of weeks ago and we were both able to arrange our schedules in order to have a short and fun photoshoot.<\/p>\n<p>She is a total pro and one of my favorite people to photograph! \u00a0She can pull off just about any look and I think will do very well in Hollywood! \u00a0We actually did a few looks and tried to go for something a bit different than what McKayla has usually done. \u00a0 As you can see, McKayla rocked out the session and I think we accomplished the goal well!<\/p>\n<p>As usual, the wonderful hair\/makeup artist <em><strong><a title=\"Amber Lynne\" href=\"http:\/\/www.amberlynnemakeupartist.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Amber Lynne<\/a><\/strong><\/em> did an amazing job
