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.

Jackson {Spring Valley Minnesota Dog Photographer}

Yesterday,   I was randomly looking at other photographer’s blogs that are favorites of mine.  One that I clicked on was Erin Vey,  an amazing dog photographer in Seattle. Looking at her blog inspired me to go out get some shots of our dog, Jackson. I’m no Erin Vey, but I like what I captured during our quick session.   jackson1jackson4jackson3jackson2jackson6jackson5jackson7

Summer is FINALLY here…. I think…. {Spring Valley Minnesota Photographer}

Wasn’t this weekend awesome? I spent Saturday with family hanging out and playing ladder golf at my cousin’s graduation party. It was great day! Congratulations, Shane! Sunday was a lazy day. I was bored, so I went outside with my camera in hand to get some shots of our late blooming poppies.   Have a great week!

Congrats to the 2009 seniors!  Thank you for giving me the honor to photograph you! May you find success in all your future undertakings!

Welcome 2010 seniors.  Summer and fall sessions are starting to fill up quickly. I usually only schedule one session a day so I am only able to photograph so many.  If you are thinking about having me photograph your sessions, please contact me soon.

Court {Minnesota Tween Photographer}

hotshotcourt13court14court12A  few weeks ago, we shot my cousin Court’s softball photos before she had to turn in her uniform.  I love to shoot Court because she is always full of her own ideas for posing and we always have a few good laughs together during the shoot.  Courtney loves playing softball (and is quite good if I do say so myself) but I’d also say she is quite the fashionista.  So, we of course had to shoot a few in regular clothes that she pulled out of  my closet.  She would have liked to do more.  And we will this summer sometime outside. 

I PROMISE, Court! Love you!
