About Mary Cornelison

I am a southern girl born and raised. Came from a family of very artistic talents. I grew up in a house where I was the youngest and the only girl. Mostly boy cousins as well. I was total tom boy. I loved to play in the creeks and get muddy, but still had that girlie thing in me that always wanted to put makeup on everyone to make them feel pretty. As I became older, I went to college to major in screen acting and theatrical arts in Florida before moving to Atlanta. I have been in many commercials and If you are in or around Atlanta you probably knew me as the Lestanne optical designer sunglass model for a while and do other modeling part time for multiple companies. I was a voice over artist as well. I use to be BETTY on the morning show for a radio station in Florida and also worked on the sets of music videos doing hair, make up and fashion styling. I\'m kind of known in Atlanta for photography & marketing / PR. and have worked in the beauty industry for years, showcasing my talents as a National Platform artist for a well known Product company while teaching classes on hair and make-up. I have used my talents in public relations to position people in business so that they are more productive & profitable. My biggest passion is working in ministry to spread the word about how Jesus Changes lives and redeems the ones that society has thrown away. I\'m a very passionate advocate for women who have faced adversities such as Human trafficking, addictions, abuse etc. and I work very hard in the community and around the world to make sure they can carry on with normal lives after being abused in some way. I help rehabilitate them and show them how beautiful and worthy Christ says they are. I\'m in the process now of writing my first book and painting canvases to inspire those who are broken. I gave up my life and business of 20 years in Atlanta to move to Destin, Florida. I work as a photographer and artist now as well as full time ministry. Specialties: Anything with hair and Make up. I specialize in making women feel more beautiful on the inside and out. Directing the artistic vision of any photo shoot or fashion show. Specialize in Charity events. Marketing, PR work, getting the job done right!
