The Fair Family {Nashville Pet Photographer}

Meet The Fair Family…the humans are Deb, Rob, Ian and Deb’s mom, Ayako. I have gotten the pleasure of photographing this family before! Please check out their first session here: https://mandywhitleyphotography.com/blog/the-fair-family-nashville-dog-photographer

We did this session last fall at Marcella Vivrette Smith Park with there three super adorable Cavalier King Charles Spaniel pups!

First, we have Tug McGraw Fair, the newest addition to their family. He’s ten months old and a rescue from The Cavalier Rescue in Alabama. He’s a Blenheim (chestnut and white color) Cavi and was a breeder release because he wasn’t thriving. He is a bit of a peacock and 100% boy. A destroyer of toys, and he lives true to his namesake – he loves to play tug of war with his toys and his hoomans. He’s going to be another tiny like Chloe (keep reading). “Tug is keeping us active and he is just such a funny little man!”

Next, there is Lily James Fair, a nine year old ruby colored Cavi. She was adopted from the same rescue in Alabama as Tug. Lily was being sold along with her mate at a garage sale and as rescued. Thank goodness, as she would have died if not for Cavalier Rescue! She’s the hunter, Guardian of the Fair Galaxy and a tom boy. She often likes to leave her family members special gifts on their back porch and will have that innocent look in her eye – “Look at what I brought you. Don’t you like my gift?” The Fairs love that Lily is the “teacher” of the pack and keeps the other two in line.

Last but not least, Chloe Stella McCartney Fair is a five year old ten pound Princess Pawfect Ruby Cavalier King Charles Spaniel. Yet another rescue from Cavalier Rescue in Alabama! “Chloe is our tiny but Mighty Cavi” (weighing only three pounds at five months of age!). She is a Guardian of the Fair Galaxy right along with Lily. Fortunately for the Fairs, she was rescued after being discarded by a puppy mill. Chloe is a total cuddle bug and is the one that senses when you need that special puppy love.

Each dog kept their first name that was given to them at the rescue. “I’ve always believed that the names the rescues gave them was for a reason.” The second name for each pup was after a celebrity. The Fairs love this breed so much, especially because they are so sweet, gentle, and they are little cuddle bunnies who always look like puppies.

Enjoy some of my faves from our session below!

The Datzman Family {Nashville Family Photographer}

Meet the Datzman family: Alex, Alicia and their daughter Grace (six at the time of this session). They brought with them Bonnie, a nine year-old rescue, and Ada, a one year-old Weimaraner. I’m excited to share last fall’s family mini at Marcella Vivrette Smith Park and looking forward to their next session in November that will include their kitties!

Bonnie is short for “Bonita” because she was such a beautiful little puppy. Alex and Alicia love that Bonnie has been the most faithful of friends for almost nine years now and say she is incredibly patient, as she puts up with antics from Grace!

Ada is named for Ada Lovelace - a famous problem solver (known to be the world’s first computer programmer). She is the Datzman family’s second Weimaraner, and they enjoy that the breed is incredibly intense at everything in life, including loving their people. They have named her a “world class snuggler.”

Both dogs have really soulful eyes that you can see in some of the images I posted below! The Datzman’s just know they are trying their best to understand what you’re saying to them.

Enjoy some of my faves!

The Reynolds Family {Nashville Dog Photographer}

This week on the blog: The Reynolds Family, including Angie and Steve with their twins, Reagan and Riley. Though I have been photographing them for quite some time, this is their first session with a pup! These photos were taken last year when the girls were eight and Chelsey, their cavapoo, was still a puppy.

We took photos of the family at their home and all around the murals of 12 South in Nashville. You can see two of the murals below, including “I Believe in Nashville” and the “Flowers Mural”. Take a look at all the other murals on 12th South by clicking The Nashville Guru.

If you are still thinking about getting family photos this fall, I do have availability on a few mid-week dates - email me for more info on those. Also, please check out The Fall 2021 Mini Session Calendar to book the few remaining weekend dates: https://book.usesession.com/i/-nPwGR6wF
