The Ervin Family {Nashville Pet Photographer}

On the blog this week is The Ervin Family (Brent, Stephanie, Elaina, and Livvy). We did a mini session last winter at my home in College Grove. They brought their precious cavapoo (a cross between a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel and a poodle) along too!

Livvy is four years old and described as “the cutest thing ever”, precious, loving and sweet. Elaina came up with the name for Livvy by combining the names of the two characters from her favorite T.V. show at the time - “Liv & Maddie”.

The Ervin family loves that Livvy is so affectionate and that she loves to snuggle. “Most of the time her desire to snuggle convinces us all to relax.”  The cavapoo breed is known to be very affectionate and calm dogs that also like to play. Livvy definitely fits this description because along with all the snuggles, she has been known to have the cutest bursts of energy that are so fun!

Livvy does not like being left alone, so the Ervin family tries to take her with them to as many places as possible. When they can’t bring her, she stands on her hind legs to welcome them home.

Elaina just started the 7th grade this week!  Her mom says she’s a Godly girl, loves her friends and family, loves to have fun, and organize anything & everything. She is also a cheerleader and lover of life.  

Stephanie is an interior designer - you can check out her amazing work on instagram @stephanieervininteriors

The Storrs Family with Poppy {Nashville Family Photographer}

This week on the blog are the Storrs kids (Hagan, Weston, and Natasha) and their 5 month old puppy named Poppy! We did this photo shoot last fall at Marcella Vivrette Smith Park (one of my favorite locations!). Fun fact: their mom is our awesome pediatrician at Storrs Pediatrics.

Poppy is named after Princess Poppy from the Trolls movie and is a Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. She loves being as close to her humans as possible by curling up on their necks and chests or just cuddling right in their lap. She is the epitome of “lap dog”. She loves all humans and other dogs and just wants to meet everyone.

Hagan is 10 years old and loves soccer, swimming, and playing outside.

Weston and Natasha are 8 years old and active in aerial gymnastics. They love to sing and dance.

Here are some of my favorites from our session.

Colin and Mike With Olive the French Bulldog {Nashville Pet Photographer}

On the blog this week are Colin, Mike and their French Bulldog, Olive. They did a mini session with me this past winter at my property in College Grove.

Olive was just 11 months old when we took their photos. Because this social pup seems to embody the spirit of the main character, Olive, on the movie “Little Miss Sunshine,” she became her namesake. Olive is a very social pup, loving everyone: dogs, people, etc. Anyone that is willing to give her some attention is her friend. This is probably the reason she is a huge fan of dog parks! She also loves play time, especially playing tag. Olive is known for stealing socks as well. It makes sense that one thing Olive does NOT love is being left alone.

Colin and Mike love French Bulldogs because of their inherent outgoing personalities and loyalty to their people. They can be feisty with lots of energy, but are also good snugglers and couch companions.

Here are a few of my favorites from our session.
