Maranda, Adam & Reba {Nashville Pet Photographer}

May 29, 2018 Kaitlyn Holeman

Today you'll get a chance to see some familiar faces: Maranda, Adam & Reba! We met up at Ellington Agricultural Center for a springtime pets and their people mini session.

It's always so fun to work with them! If you haven't seen my previous posts from their sessions, head on over to our 2016 session at Harlinsdale Farm and Downtown Franklin.

Reba is also an adorable 9-year old red-head named after the famous Reba McEntire, which I just love! Most everyone has guessed she's a pit/daschund mix, which is a pretty interesting pairing ;)

Maranda says she is "literally the best dog" - easygoing, doesn't bark 99.9% of the time, and gets along with all people and other dogs. I've also witnessed first-hand her kangaroo skills; she can jump so high! Reba is also full of snuggles, loves to sleep in and is the best embodiment of unconditional love, ever.

Reba is a rescue from a no-kill shelter in Western TN, through a Petsmart adoption day in Nashville several years ago. She's super lucky to have such a wonderful forever home!

Enjoy some of my favorite previews below! :)

Alisa, Phil, and Skipper {Nashville Pet Photographer}

This is a special session for me, because Alisa and Phil are my sister and brother-in-law! Anyone who knows my husband will be able to see the resemblance between Alisa and David :) Alisa and Phil were joined by their pup, Skipper. Skipper is a Schipperke (pronounced skipper-key) and has been with them for 14 years! They adopted him when he was 1 year old, so this little guy is 15 years old--which is why that cute nose is covered in white. Alisa and Phil adopted their furry family member from the human society of Wilson County, which is called New Leash on Life. We had a great time taking these pictures at their home in Knoxville over the holidays. There were some beautiful leaves for us!

Enjoy a few of my favorites!

The Allmand Family | Celebration of Life {Nashville Pet Photographer}

June 8, 2016 mandy whitley

This post is a little bittersweet because shortly after this session, Bella (the sweet gal with the longest eyelashes ever) passed away. She had a wonderful life with her parents and sister, Millie.

Mille's parents got engaged on a trip to Italy and they knew they wanted to adopt a pup together! During their time in Italy, they got the idea to name their dog Bella. The following year they adopted Bella, a beautiful cocker spaniel. Three years after they adopted Bella, her parents decided that she needed a sister! They named her sister Mille, after an Italian car race called the Mille Miglia (to keep to the Italian names).

Her mom writes: "she LOVED to ride in the car! Her favorite place was in my lap. She had the sweetest spirit and only wanted to make us happy. I truly believe she was an angel on earth for a short time. She is missed so much by all of us (including Mille)."

The Allmand family decided to adopt a third puppy after they received Bella's terminal diagnosis. Their new girl is named Harper, and Harper and Mille are building a sweet friendship. Their parents hope that they will be lifelong companions for each other!

I hope you enjoy some of my favorites from Bella's celebration of life session.
