Each year Planet Beach selects a group of women as our Cover Models. These ladies serve as Brand Ambassadors and appear in our marketing campaigns throughout the year. We spent the past week in New Orleans getting to know these incredible women while capturing images for next year. It’s my pleasure to announce the four women who will be representing Planet Beach as your 2017 Cover Models:

Tori Cowen
Tori is our reigning 2016 Planet Beach Cover Model of the Year. We enjoyed working with Tori so much that we welcomed her back with open arms! She was born and raised in Panama City Beach, FL, graduated from Florida State University, and was crowned Miss Florida in 2014 for the Miss America Organization.

Vanessa Pacheco
Vanessa was born in Denver, CO, and moved to El Paso, TX, at the age of 12. She is an extremely athletic and active person, loves living a healthy lifestyle, and wants to inspire and motivate others to achieve the same. Vanessa is currently an Office Representative for State Farm Insurance, while attending El Paso Community College for a degree in Criminal Justice and Homeland Security. She is the current reigning Miss Texas Earth United States 2016.

Nichole Mellison
Nichole is originally from Seattle, WA. She later moved to Idaho, where she attended Boise State University and graduated with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology. Nichole currently resides in southern California and has successfully been a personal trainer in the Los Angeles area for over 10 years. She is a WBFF Bikini Pro competitor, sponsored athlete, and model. Nichole is also the owner and creator of Workout on Wheelz, a mobile training business specializing in geriatric fitness. It is her passion and deep fulfillment to teach health and fitness through her clients and classes!

Amber Murphy
Amber Murphy is from New Orleans, LA, and attended the University of Mississippi in Oxford, where she received a Bachelor of Arts degree in Journalism. Her interest in Broadcast Journalism and Public Relations lead to a position with the Ole Miss Athletic Department and many opportunities with ESPN. Her goal in the next few years is to open up her own boutique, while attending law school to further pursue her career as a sports agent.

I’m very proud of the strong and motivated ladies chosen this year. These women believe in Planet Beach and what the brand has to offer for those looking to achieve their beauty and wellness goals. We look forward to continuing to work with each of you. Another successful Cover Model photo shoot in the books for Planet Beach!
