Utah is better known for the Rocky Mountains than any ocean shoreline (Salt Lake, not withstanding), but that didn’t stop Miss Bikini Utah Model contestant Marisa Cannon from winning the national crown as Miss Bikini Model at the July 6 competition held in Miami Beach.

WIth the sands of South Beach and the waters of the Atlantic Ocean within an easy sprint, Marissa won the title. Before she won, however, like all of the contestants, she had to show her skills in front of the camera, modeling for a team of 17 photographers over the course of three days before she took to the stage.
