Agape Animal Rescue Holiday Event {Nashville Dog Photographer}

The holidays aren't just for celebrating with your relatives, they're for spending time with your furry family members, too!

On December 2nd, I'll be teaming up with Agape Animal Rescue for a charity event where you'll get the chance to take holiday photos with your pet(s)! You can bring your pooch to the event at My Second Home Pet Resort between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. that day, and take pictures with your pet in your ugly holiday sweaters!

There is a $20 minimum donation to participate, which is benefiting Agape Animal Rescue to help animals find loving families and forever homes -- and one high-resolution digital image is included! We'll also be running a special where you can get 25 5x7 flat holiday cards for only $40 (normally $60). And any other purchases from the event will be available for a 10% discount.

These preview images were a fun little test run with Miller (the bigger dog) and Ally, and Wallace (the cute little pooch) and Tanya!

Hope to see you at the event!

The Dalton Family {Nashville Family Photographer}

Another fun family mini session is on the blog this week, this time with the Dalton family! Meet Michael, Tiffany, Jackson, Caitlin and their pup Peyton.

When I asked them how they came up with the name for Peyton, I loved their answer! Each member of the family put their favorite dog name in a bowl and when Caitlin pulled the paper out, it was her favorite name that was picked -- such a unique way of picking a name!

He's a yellow lab that makes for the perfect family dog, since he loves the kids and is really easy to train. Peyton also loves to be with his people and "stand guard" at the office door. They often find him curled up asleep next to the door, so cute! Their favorite things about him are that he's tenderhearted, gentle and an old soul. 

It was also great to hear about the kids' favorite activities: Jackson loves anything involving baseball, basketball, football and his friends, while Caitlin loves to dance, read and convince her brother to be mischievous. And of course both kids are fantastic helpers with Peyton, making sure he gets lots of exercise!

Hope you enjoy these favorites from their family portrait session!

The Cho Family {Franklin, TN Dog Photographer}

This week's session spotlight is one of my favorites! Meet the Cho family: Tim, Judy, and their pup named Chloe. I had so much fun capturing their photos at Harlinsdale Farm in Franklin, TN. I don't know about you, but I can't stop myself from stop smiling when I see Chloe's face!

Chloe is only a year old and is a Pembroke Welsh Corgi. She's a pup who can't get enough affection and treats, and embraces new experiences with her family regularly. She even swims in the lake while canoeing and enjoys road trips!

They found Chloe through a lovely older couple in Athens, TN who breeds happy balanced Corgis -- and even had a chance to meet Chloe's fur parents! 

Tim and Judy say they love Corgis because they have a spirit of "big-heartedness in small packaging" and are fun, loving, loyal and affectionate. With one look at Chloe's face, I'm sure you'll agree all of this is true!
