Sparkle Portraits and Design by Lori Gush

12/03/2025

This December, Sparkle Portraits is giving back in a meaningful way.

Throughout the entire month of December, every $50 credit purchased toward International United Miss Internationals 2026 stage photos will be allocated directly to support Shelley Licknack — a cherished IUM sponsor and dear friend who recently lost her home and her beloved pup in a devastating fire.
Your support this December helps lift someone who has poured so much love, sponsorship, and encouragement into our community. Let’s show Shelley what the IUM family is all about.

My baby!

I am beyond proud of Noelle for all she has accomplished at just 11 years old.
She truly has a heart of service and a passion for helping animals 🐾

We have had the most amazing year representing International United Miss 👑 🩵

This was such a fun day photographing the National Queens for their royalty promo portraits!

The best part was seeing these ladies bond and have fun together! I loved spending the day with them! 📷

Lots of authentic moments, laughs and fun!

A royalty photo session is a great way to bring titleholders together AND get some amazing promotional portraits!
