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.

Happiness…. {Rochester MN Infant Portrait Photographer}

getting to photograph a beautiful baby in our beautiful tulips.  The tulips didn’t all come up this year, but gosh they are still beautiful.  And add a baby to photograph, makes for a happy photographer.  Baby “J”  also must have agreed as she thought they looked so good, she tried to eat them!  😉

30th Birthday Celebration { SE MN Adult Cake Smash Portrait Photographer}

This session has been in the works for about a month or so after my friend, Courtney, sent me some photos of an adult cake smash that had gone viral and she asked we could do a shoot to celebrate her 30th birthday this month. I said, “absolutely” right away as we had never done one and I thought it would be a blast. And oh, boy was it ever! I have not laughed that much in a quite awhile, both during the shoot and when deciding what photos to post.

Hope you enjoy the craziness that ensued as much as we did today!

Oh, and she really did end up throwing cake on me at the end! I guess I deserved it with how much I was laughing. Ha Such a fun, fun day!
