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.

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.

Love Mr. “P’s” Smiles {Spring Valley Minnesota Infant Photographer}

I adore this family for many reasons, but love seeing Mr “P”s” smiles. He definitely helped brighten my week.  My main computer decided to lock up on me on Monday while I was working on a graduation invitation, so I have been spending my week loading programs and  setting back up Photoshop and Lighroom on a new computer that I hadn’t transferred over to, yet. It’s a pain,but the most frustrating thing is they have no idea what’s wrong with it.     Gotta love technology!  It can be such a love hate relationship.  On better note, here’s a few of my favorites from Mr. P’s session.

So cute. He is getting so big and I cannot wait for his 1 year photos this summer.

We tired “P” out as we did his shoot late in the afternoon, so Grandma “D” asked us to take a sweet sleeping shot. Absolutely precious!

Close to 80 Degrees Outside… {Southeast MN Photographer}

in March and what was my Dad doing yesterday?

undefined

Yep, packing and loading snowmobiles to head out west to Wyoming and Montana.  The weather we’ve had in Minnesota the last week has just been crazy, hasn’t it? But I’m not complaining.

undefinedundefinedHope the AC worked today as they crossed South Dakota with 85 degree temps…..  =)  undefinedundefinedHere’s part of what I jokingly call the “white truck brigade” because one night Kerin and I came back  from a shoot and there were 6 or 7 white trucks  sitting in my driveway as they were all working on their sleds.  undefinedAfter talking with the guys, Jackson and I went behind the barn to check out the flower area.  Hard to believe that there are spring  flowers coming up already.  undefinedundefinedundefinedundefinedundefined

Hope you are able to get outside and enjoy the beautiful weather this weekend.
