Tail of 20 Cities: Mandy Whitley Photography in Franklin, TN {Nashville Dog Photographer}

I’m so excited to be participating in Rover.com’s Tail of 20 Cities, celebrating my amazing clients and unique city along with 19 other photographers from around the world. Take a look at the other photographers participating in the Tail of 20 Cities Photo Journey here,  and feel free to join in on the fun by posting a photo of your pooch repping your city with hashtag #RoverCities on social media.

My family LOVES Franklin, Tennessee. It has the best main street — complete with restaurants, shops and a refurbished old theater. Many of the shops and restaurants have dog bowls out all the time and most are dog friendly! Franklin also has a greenway to walk with your pup, a dog park and plenty of activities you can bring your dogs to, including all the events on Main Street. My personal favorite is the annual Pumpkinfest!  

Franklin is also part of the Mars petcare initiative, Better Cities for Pets, which lists all the pet-friendly businesses in the area. It is also home to one of my favorite pet-friendly wedding venues, CJ's Off the Square! 

I've done many photography sessions in and around the Main Street area of Franklin and I always love taking my clients there. Here are a few of my favorites from the Kemp family session with their sweet rescue pup, Sadie. The Kemps are also the owners of the fabulous pet parent t-shirt company Winks & Whiskers. They met me in Franklin where we wandered down Main Street and the alleyways for the best spots!

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 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!
