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 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.

Taylor ’21 {SE MN Senior Portrait Photographer}

Taylor started with a sunflower mini session and then her and her Mom liked what they saw on the back of my camera and decided to book a full Deluxe Senior session. ? For her Deluxe session, we did some photos with a cow at Rockie Top Acres Alpacas (big thanks to the Lohmann family) then we headed to use downtown Wykoff, MN. So much fun and so many laughs. Thanks for letting us capture these memories for you and your family, Taylor!

Mason ’21 {MN Senior Portrait Photographer}

Busy season is happening. Love it!
Mason got a really nice night for his photos and his easy-going personality made our job easy. We id a few photos and then headed outside to do some photos downtown Spring Valley, MN using the buildings as our backdrops. We have so many great spots for photos in our small town.

Dog 1 Year {Rochester MN Dog Portrait Photographer}

Had a little extra time tonight as the kids we were supposed to photograph had a bit of a fever yesterday, so to be safe, we rescheduled their session. Our breeder had asked for some updated photos to be sent along with a survey now that Maverick is a year old, so I edited some I had taken last weekend to send to them. I had not been looking forward to fall weather, but after editing these, I am so excited about all the colors of fall.

On August 25, 2020, Maverick turned 1 so I also did a cake smash session with him with a dog-safe cake. So fun! He was a little unsure at first and then liked it and probably would have eaten more if it had not been a bit frozen still.

Outdoor Newborn Session {SE MN Newborn Portrait Photographer}

Not having the studio and all our props at hand made me nervous that I may have not grabbed something we would need during the session, but it turned out absolutely perfectly.

Johanna ’21 {Stewartville MN Senior Portrait Photographer}

Johanna’s senior session is the first that we are blogging for the Class of 2021, can you even believe that we’re already over halfway through 2020?!
We’ve been able to photograph Johanna a few times in her life with the first time when she was about 4 in a pink tutu in our living room that we made into our studio by putting all our furniture in the dining room. So glad we were also able to capture her senior portraits as well. Love getting to capture so many at the many stages of their lives.
My absolute favorite image of her is the photo of her in the tree with her book. It’s so her! And with the cute kitten that kept trying to be a part of her shoot.
