Jessica and Patrick {Nashville Pet Photography}

Springtime is coming soon! I am super excited for all the flowers and plants that will be (and have already started) blooming! I have this incredible, giant Forsythia Bush right on my property, and if I do say so myself, it is a beautiful backdrop to any photo.

This week on the blog, meet Jessica and Patrick. Patrick is two year old mix between a Plott hound, Catahoula leopard and Pitbull. His name came from St. Patrick’s Day, as this is the day Jessica started fostering him two years ago! Patrick has the greatest energy and is always happy to see his people. He loves to go on hikes and many other adventures. Jessica’s favorite thing about him…he loves to snuggle!

Patrick was a rescue pup from the Humane Society of Lollypop Farm in Fairport, NY. Though he was a foster at first, this cute dog just had to be adopted. Jessica just loves that “he is a quirky mix of several breeds and just a very handsome, medium sized guy.” I couldn’t agree more!

Lauren with her pups Deacon and Charlie {Nashville Pet Photography}

Happy New Year! I had a wonderful Christmas with my immediate family, and then traveled to Missouri for the New Year. I hope your holidays were great too!

This week on the blog, We have photos of Lauren and her two pups, Deacon and Charlie. We did this photo session at my home in College Grove.

First, we have Deacon. He is a six-year-old standard goldendoodle and named after a character on the show Nashville. Deacon loves other dogs, and he loves the water! “He really is such a big goof,” Lauren describes. And he doesn’t like any type of boots, which Lauren finds hilarious. Deacon listens well; however, he doesn’t like to cuddle as much as he might look like he would (or as much as Lauren would like). Lauren loves that goldendoodles are smart and don’t shed (a major plus!).

Next, is Charlie. This cute dog is a five-year-old red merle Australian Shepard. Charlie was named on a whim but, Lauren has always liked boys names that could be used for a girl, so it stuck. Charlie is needy and loves her momma the most. She definitely does not like sharing attention and doesn’t mind giving the attention back especially when she greets Lauren with tons of love! Charlie came from a farm, so she has that working dog drive. Lauren loves to take her back to a farm and watch Charlie in her element. “Australian shepherds are something else,” says Lauren, ‘“She even used to try and herd me! But she is so loyal and picks up on social ques so easily.”

Hope you enjoy the pictures of Lauren and her two beautiful dogs!

The Whipp Family (Part 2) {Nashville Pet Photography}

Part 2 of the Whipp Family, as promised. (Check out Part 1 of these fabulous photos!) I photographed this family last fall, where I had the opportunity to do the photos at their beautiful home and land in the White Bluff area. It was a photographer’s dream with so many places to capture, I had to break this up into a two parter so I could share as many of the photos as possible!

This is the Whipp family: Amy, Jake and Landon (who is six years old here). With them is Piccolo, their two-year-old golden lab mix. They also have two barn cats - Boots and Barkley who were around for some photos as well. Amy outdid herself in creating set ups for their session and selecting perfect outfits for each spot!

I hope you enjoy this second set of pics for this gorgeous family! - Mandy
