Kaze the Great...Dane! {Nashville Pet Photographer}

May 21, 2020 Heather Nelms

On the blog today are Kaze and his people, Nicole and Adam! I took these pics on a beautiful, fall day in my backyard about one month before Baby Whitley arrived. (Which is why you are just seeing them now).

Kaze is short for Kamikaze because when he gets the zoomies and throws his massive weight around, it is time to watch out!

I asked Nicole and Adam why they chose to get a Great Dane. “Danes are truly gentle giants, massive lap puppies, huge couch potatoes, scaredy cats and great cuddlers.” I guess it makes complete sense that one of his passions is the couch and that he does not like the Roomba! If you can’t find Kaze on the couch, you might find him eating his favorite thing…cookies.

Kaze is a quirky Dane that attracts a lot of attention when Nicole and Adam go out, and everyone has to say hello or love on him. Take a look at some of my favorite pics from our session below!

Harley & Courtney {Nashville Family Photographer}

December 12, 2018 mandy whitley

On the blog this week is Harley & Courtney! Harley is 3 month old fox red Labrador retriever and is super adorable and very sweet!

Courtney says she was very undecided about his name at first and had several that she liked. Ultimately her mom started saying the name Harley and it eventually just stuck. Now she thinks it really suits him! He has a tough side but is also a very sweet and playful pup.

Currently, Harley's favorite thing to do is chew. He chews everything from shoes and furniture to walls and cabinets. His least favorite thing is leaving the dog park after playing with other dogs.

Courtney’s favorite thing about Harley is how excited he gets to see her in the mornings and when I come home from work. She says, “He's a funny little pup and he brightens my day everyday.” Her favorite thing about the breed is the energy, how loving they are, and how much they love water. Specifically with Harley, she fell in love with the color of his coat. “I like how unique it is!”

Enjoy some favorites from their mini session!

The Thompson Family {Nashville Dog Photographer}

I am so excited to share these photos from the Thompson's pet and family mini session at Smith park this week!

If this family looks familiar to you, it’s because we did an in studio pets and their people session last year and I was so happy to get to do updated images for them this year!

Brittany and Isaac have two adorable boys: Chase, 4 and Nate, who just turned 2, and a furry family member named Rudy! Rudy is a maltese with a little mix of Havanese.

The Thompsons named Rudy after Isaac's favorite movie Rudy, which is about Notre Dame (Isaac's favorite team). He's definitely a people-lover and enjoys playing catch with squeaky toys. He even waves when you come home and is definitely a cuddle-bug!

And although Brittany has animal allergies, malteses are hypoallergenic -- so she gets to love on Rudy without sneezing!

Take a look at a few of my favorites from this fun dog and family session.
