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.

Newborn Boy {Spring Valley MN Newborn Portrait Photographer}

My favorite thing to do when preparing for a newborn session is seeking out some great props that have the baby’s nursery and the family’s hobbies in mind. In doing so, I found great rustic/country things to use during Baby “H’s” newborn session….. Love the gray and maroon onesie, buffalo paid outfit, deer hat and the cowboy hat we were able to use during this session.
 
P.S. How adorable is that smile in the photo with Mom?!

Max ’18 {Southeast Minnesota Senior Portrait Photographer}

We had a great day hanging out with Max, his Mom and his Dad for his senior portrait session this past fall.  We first hit the new gym at Grand Meadow High School, wow what a great gym. That was my first time seeing it in person and I loved it.  We also did some in studio shots and got to see Max’s amazing shoe collection, one of my favorite photos from last fall. Lastly, we were able to visit his family’s farm where they have a vineyard.  Such a beautiful location!  His family was also very sweet and sent us home with some grapes to try.  Yum! 

Thanks for a great day!
