coming into her own Katie Parks Du Quoin
Katie is a junior at Du Quoin High School. She said the experience of being a model for Life & Style confirmed her desire to pursue a career as a high-fashion model. “I enjoyed the clothes and the modeling,” she said, “but I really enjoyed working with the people on the shoot. It was so interesting, and everyone was so cool. That made me want to be in the business even more.” Katie also likes being on the other side of the camera. “I love taking pictures, too,” she said.
