Modesty Shots
Idea by Crystal Spikes
 

"Modesty Shots" is a takeoff on glamour shots.  We combined this activity with the Young Women.  The girls were asked to bring three modest outfits. One casual, one Sunday dress and one formal, like they would wear to a prom (just the Young Women did the formal shots). The older girls helped to do the younger girls' hair and very light makeup. I was very impressed with the care they took in making up the younger girls being careful not to "over do" it due to their age. Of course, the younger girls just loved the attention and interaction with the older girls. I took their individual pictures in a park setting across the street from the church. Then did some group shots of each group and them all together. One of the Young Women took the pictures when they were done and made a scrap book entitled "Modest Girls and the Hottest Girls" for her Young Women in Excellence project. Each girl was featured on a page of their own with brief journaling about a positive trait of the girl. The whole activity was a great success! I think it did a good job of showing how beautiful our girls are....on both the inside and the outside.
