National Adorable Children and Pawsitively Adorable Contest Winners {SE MN Photographer}

We are proud to announce we had 9 winners in the National portion of the Adorable Children and Pawsitively Adorable contests. The National portion of the contest took place at the lab and was judged by a panel of judges based on quality, appearance, charm, expression, and personality.

In the National Pawsitively Adorable contest…

We had First Place for Me & My Human. They won a $100 Visa gift card.

We had Second Place for Newborns. They won a $75 Visa Gift Card.

We had a Third Place for Dogs. They won a $50 Visa Gift Card.

We had an Honorable Mention for dogs. Super exciting as this is my dog, Maverick. We won a $25 Visa Gift Card.

We had an Honorable Mention in Buddies. They won a $25 Visa Gift Card.

In the National Adorable Children contest…..

We had a Second Place for Bloopers. They won a $75 Visa Gift Card.

We had a Third Place for Bloopers. They won a $50 Visa Gift Card.

We had a Third Place for 13 Months- 2 Years. They won a $50 Visa Gift Card.

We had an Honorable Mention for 9-12 Years. They won a $25 Visa Gift Card.

The lab where these took place is having some website issues, but as soon as we can see the other winners, I will post them here, too. Congratulations, everyone! Thanks for participating and voting! =)

And since we did not do the local portion of the Pawsitively Adorable as it was mostly my assistant’s dogs and family pets, and I had not posted the Pawsitively Adorable images, these are the other images we submitted. So they each received a 16×20 print from their session.

Flower Garden {Rochester MN Senior Photographer}

Last week, I headed down to Cedar Valley Produce Auction near Alma, IA with one of my assistants, Jordan, and my Mom to check out their flowers.  I’ve never bid at an auction before, but it ended up being pretty fun.   Jordan and I bought 85 gerber daisies and 60 white filler flowers (not sure of the name). My Mom loved their hanging baskets, but just couldn’t get herself to actually bid on 8 baskets at once since they sell things in larger quantities.  Maybe next time.  Anyway, I thought I’d share some of what Jordan and Paige have been working for the last week.  Can’t wait to see how it will look when all the seeds they planted today are blooming.
