It's a graduation photo. I'm sure she put effort into looking extra good for photo day.
I thought she looked fine in the auditions, although she's no Sayu/Reina/etc, i.e., not one of those naturally extra pretty girls, but even with minimal effort into proper styling she can definitely look quite good. It'd be nice to see her with long hair like in that picture in the future.
