The Thieret Family {Nashville Dog Photographer}

On the blog this week is another fun family photography session near my hometown in Cape Girardeau, Missouri!

Nicki and I go way back -- we've known each other since pre-kindergarten! I love getting the chance to work with her, her husband Jeff, their two boys (Jake and Zach) and their sweet pups (Cooper and Pepper). 

Cooper is a 7-year-old lab mix rescue from the Humane Society in Pine Bluff Arkansas. He's very laid back and loves to be petted while laying next to you. And if you stop for even a moment, he'll keep nudging you with his nose until you start again. Unfortunately, he also loves to roll in cow dung -- definitely not a fun thing to clean up!

Pepper is a 3-year-old west highland terrier and the only other gal in the house. She's feisty, doesn't realize how small she is, and loves being the dominant dog. She can also run like the wind, which makes it hard to catch her when necessary. Thankfully, she's a cuddler, and loves to snuggle with Nicki at the end of the day. 

I hope you enjoy these favorites from their family session!

The Thieret Family {Southeast Missouri Family Photographer}

I'm really excited to get this family on the blog today! For starters, I am loving the photos we got last time I was in Missouri at my very favorite family location there! (seriously, I wish I could transport it to Nashville) Secondly, I have been friends with Nicki, well, pretty much since kindergarten. We grew up together just a few miles from each other, and I love watching her family grow over the years. I can't believe how old her two boys are now! Crazy! And I'm so glad Cooper got to join in for the photos as well - such a handsome pup. Enjoy the preview!

The Roth Family! {Southeast Missouri Family Photography}

This little girl is just the cutest, and I'm not just saying that because she happens to be my cousin either - she IS the cutest! We had such a great time doing this family session while I was back home in Southeast Missouri last weekend. This was an especially fun place to do their family photos, since it wasn't all that long ago I was doing Erin & Shawn's wedding photos here! Another fun fact, there were a lot of kittens at this location - maybe 15 or more. Three of them followed us everywhere and little Paige is not such a huge fan - poor thing is afraid of kittens! It was pretty funny though, and a couple of them snuck into a few shots as well!

Enjoy the preview!
