Top Austin Model: Dark & Edgy

Top Austin Model is Austin's premier annual model competition for Austin-based talent. Top Austin Model was created by ButterFly Entertainment in 2011 and exclusively features local talent and businesses to serve as a platform for creative fashion professionals in Austin, Texas.

The third challenge for this year's contestants was a "Dark & Edgy" themed photo shoot. Contestants had the opportunity to work with some of the best in the business on set for their shoot and were asked to follow up with a "selfie" photo best reflecting their hair and makeup.

Behind the Scenes at Top Austin Model:

After each photo shoot challenge, fans will have the opportunity to vote online for their favorite contestant. At each elimination round, judges will consider the vote totals for each contestant and the contestant with the most votes for that week will be saved from elimination.
