Amy & Faulkner {Nashville Pet Photographer}

April 30, 2020 Heather Nelms

So this is Christmas…okay, maybe it isn’t…but how about some photos that are cheerful and bright? I believe the pics just might bring some of that Christmas joy and hope into your hearts very early! (I think we could all use some these days.)

This was the fifth photo session I did with Amy and Faulkner! We did this shoot back in October for her holiday cards and to see this duo again is always awesome. If you want to see more of their sessions please view this session we did in 2018 here. He is just as happy!

Amy has commented on Faulkner’s incredible zest for life and how excited he gets when he sees his favorite thing - a tennis ball! You can’t help but smile at his energy. Faulkner is a German Shorthair Pointer, a breed known for that energy, but Amy keeps up with him just fine.

These two make quite a pair. Enjoy some of my favorites.

P.S. This photo shoot was done in studio, which are available to rent for mini sessions and hour sessions. If you want to do photos but think outdoors won’t work with your pet(s), let’s talk about this option!

Amy & Faulkner {Nashville Pet Photographer}

August 23, 2018 Kaitlyn Holeman

On the blog this week is a fun pet portrait session with a couple familiar faces: Amy and Faulkner! I've worked with them several times before -- you can even check out their fall mini session from a couple of years ago here.

Faulkner got his name from Amy's favorite author: William Faulkner. He loves tennis balls more than anything, playing with them all over the house, in the yard, and will even sleep with them nearby.

Faulkner is a rescue from Southeast German Shorthair Pointer (SEGSP) Rescue. Amy met his foster parents in Montgomery in April of 2012 to pick him up, and although they live in Mobile, they've kept in touch ever since.

Amy says her favorite thing about him is his zest for life: "It's infectious! The way his face lights up when he sees a ball would make anyone smile." She loves how sweet, yet regal he can be -- when he lies in her lap she just melts! Although the breed has a lot of energy, Amy's totally okay with that because so does she! :)

Here are a few of my favorites!

Riley, Lara & George {Nashville Dog Photographer}

June 20, 2018 Kaitlyn Holeman

On the blog this week is another family and pet photography session at the Ellington Agricultural Center, this time with Lara, George and their super sweet pup Riley!

Riley is a German Shorthaired Pointer, and almost ten years old! He's still got a ton of energy, and loves outdoor adventures both big and small: parks, the woods, a walk around the neighborhood. George and Riley even get up almost every morning for the last 8.5 years to go for a run, and they both love the time they spend together before the sun comes up.

And apparently Riley really hates any beeping sounds! They had to turn the beep function off of many home appliances so that he wouldn't run outside!

Lara and George adopted him from a family living outside of Memphis. The family and their neighbors each had a German Shorthaired Pointer, and they created a litter of pups! Lara and George were on their way back home to Nashville from a family visit in Texas when they picked him up.

When I asked what they love most about him, Lara said, "Riley is such a content and silly dog, and up for any type of activity or cuddling session. We've come to find out that these qualities are typical of the breed. One of the unique things is that we get stopped constantly on the street by people who want to compliment him, ask about the breed or tell us a story about a GSP that they have owned/own."

I hope you enjoy some of my favorite photographs from this session!
