Welcome!
Hello and Welcome!
My name is Laura Hunter. I am honored to be Mrs. Washington Internationl 2011.
Here's a little information about me. I am a wife and mother of two fabulous girls ages seven and 1 year. I am also a professional photographer and owner of Beyond Photography in Bellingham, Washington.
Over the past few years I have dedicated much of my time to volunteer efforts. I am a trained Disaster First Responder with the Red Cross and volunteer for many charities in my area. I co-founded the Pacific Panthers Organization. We are a non profit volunteer adult cheerleading organization that promotes healthy lifestyles at local schools and youth clubs. I was recently honored with the President's Volunteer Service award for donating over 350 hours of my time to charity in the past 12 months.
I also enjoy modeling and acting. You can see me in print and television advertisements for Nintendo Wii, Microsoft, Bissell, Emerites Airlines, Toyota, the Seattle Mariners and many others.
I am excited to report that I am currently a cast member on a reality TV show being aired on Fox Sports. We are filming all over the USA and very excited for our show to air in April of this year!
I am a strong believer in healthy living and family togetherness. That's why I decided to champion the platform of "Family Fitness - Healthy choices for strong families!" We are very active in my household and we chose to spend time together in a number of healthy and active activities. My daughter dances, I coach cheerleading, my husband and I work out together and we all have a great time at each other's endeavors. We're not only staying healthy, but we're always getting closer as a family as we support one another. We believe that less screen time and more real life fun is one of the best things a family can do for each other.
I am so fortunate to have such a supportive family! We all travel together as well as attending football games, dance competitions, cheerleading events, and we also enjoy a lot of fun outdoor time. I am also very fortunate to have the support of the Pacific Panthers Organization. They have been so great cheering me on and always being supportive of my appearances and volunteer schedule!
