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.

Rock ‘N Roll {Southeast MN Portrait Photographer}

After taking Mr. “C’s” portraits, I got the idea to make my uncle a collage with all his grand kids, so I had them all come in for pictures and for some pictures together since it had been 2 years since their last shoot together.  So much fun!

undefinedundefinedundefined

Mr “C” picked out his entire  outfit for these pictures back in November when we went shopping. He had been asking me to go the  studio to do these photos every day I’ve seen him since then to go do these photos, so he could finally take the outfit home and wear it to school.  He especially loves his hat and shoes, he wore them every day to school last week.

undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefined Ms. “K” was loving her outfit.  She instantly had a smile on her face after putting it on.  I got her jacket, skirt, leggings, boots and hair feather on Zulilly. Love this site!  Lots of cute things for great prices.  You can’t see it well in the photos but she has multi-colored fake nails on, too. I think she was most excited for those.  Her brother also picked out her bracelet and necklace for her.  undefined

Showing off her dance moves!  undefinedundefinedundefinedundefined Mr. “C’ also wanted to ham it up for me, again.   He was rocking out Bon Jovi and  Jason Aldean’s “Country Girl, (Shake it for me)”.   I wouldn’t be surprised if he was in a band in the future.  So, these photos will be used for his Valentines this year.  I got both of  his hats from Zulilly, too.

undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefined I also jumped into some of photos.  Can’t wait to get them printed and framed.  Thanks to Kerin for taking them!   undefinedundefinedundefined

KHS Volleyball & Football {SE MN Sports Photographer}

With the busy Fall we had, I never got a chance to put up the photos Kerin and I took at Kingsland’s Football and Volleyball games.  But they are now up in the store if you’d like to view them. Also, Girls Basketball from Tuesday night is slowly loading, it should be done by mid-morning.  I’ll also be going to more Boys and Girls games before the end of the season, so be sure to check back.
