The Tucker Family Fall Mini Session {Nashville Pet Photographer}

The Tucker Family have been my clients for many years, and I truly appreciate them coming back to me for their yearly furry family updates. This year we went to Smith Park in Brentwood and got some fun fall photos with their amazing pack! Click here to see their extended family session with their pets from a couple years ago. Each year they take a photo with a photo - starting with an image from their wedding!

Here is all the info about their three lovable pups:

Nana is five year old husky/great pyrenees/pittie mix adopted from Rutherford County PAWS. Her original name at the shelter was Nanook, but they shortened it to Nana which fit her old grandma "get off my lawn" personality! Her favorite things are walks, belly rubs and bossing everyone around. Although she can be a protector of her people, she can also be totally silly. 

Briley is their 6 year old treeing walker coonhound mix, whom they also found at Rutherford County PAWS. Katie said, "Her name at the shelter was Peanut . . . which had to go." So they took a few days to think about a new name, and they thought Briley sounded the sweetest for such a sweet dog. He's a big fan of riding in the car, chewing bulky sticks and taking up all the space in the bed. 

Last, but definitely not least, is Josi (Yo-C)! He's a 3 year old Aussie/Pittie/cocker spaniel mix who was dumped in a local park. Katie says she was in the right place at the right time to find him, and now he's a big part of the family! She named him after the Nashville Predators defenseman, Roman Josi. Josi isn't a fan of peanut butter, but he does love playing with toys, being in everyone's personal space, and going on walks. Their favorite thing about him is his goofy personality -- and of course those freckles!

Hope you enjoy a few of my favorites!

Risha, Michael, Kathy, Giggles & Gunther! {Nashville Family Photographer}

On the blog this week is another cute family and pet portrait session that's been hiding in the archives! Meet Risha, her son Michael, and her mom Kathy at their home in Brentwood, TN last spring!

I took some headshots for Risha, and since Michael was about to graduate high school around this time, we also had a fun family portrait session. It was also around Mother's Day weekend, so it was all about the mommas!

And, of course, we had to include the pups: Giggles and Gunther! Giggles is a super sweet 9-year-old miniature red dachshund, and Gunther is a 6-year-old black and tan rescued mix.

Enjoy some of my favorites from their session below!

The Watkins Family {Nashville Pet Photographer}

Today's blog will celebrate the life of another furry friend, Joey. This adorable little pup passed away a few months ago, but I wanted to share some of my favorites from this last photo session with him and his family. 

Joey was a 12-year-old dachshund, and was adopted by his parents when they were in college. They came up with the name Joey because he liked to hop, just like a baby kangaroo (how cute!). 

He loved being around people and being the center of attention. Although he was a small dog, he had a big personality: always alert, turning his head to the side when you talk to him, and hated being left out of activities. Dachshunds are courageous, curious, and confident, and he was a great example of all of these wonderful traits.
