When Amy Kao of John P. Stevens High School was selected by
her peers to model for Prom Guide, she knew it would be a
special event. And with a prom dress provided by Terani Prom, prom shoes
provided by Sizzle Shoes, and makeup done by celebrity makeup artist
Lazarus, she graces the cover with style. Featured with her is Joel
Alvarez of Satelite High School wearing Calvin Klein.
Prom Guide had a chance to chat with Amy at the photo shoot.

donate all of our profits to help our school invest in
future improvement projects.

you’re doing.

what though. Maybe I’m in a business suit planning
for an upcoming business trip where I’ll meet the
ambassador of Russia.
