Through the lens of Jade Soto: Miss Connecticut Scholarship pageant

Artist/ photographer Jade Soto made her first trip to the Miss Connecticut Scholarship Pageant– her first pageant of any kind– armed with her camera.

This is what she saw with the fresh eyes of a new visitor to the Miss Connecticut and Miss Connecticut’s Outstanding Teen competitions at the Connecticut Convention Center in Hartford, Conn. on June 24.
