The Holland Family {Nashville Cat Photographer}

March 18, 2019 mandy whitley

I’m so excited to have some sweet kitties on the blog today!

Meet the Holland family: Adam, Andrea, Aidan, Austin and their cats KitKat and Kisses.

Even though they aren’t sisters, both girls are about one and a half years old and were adopted together. Kisses is a domestic medium hair tabby and KitKat is a domestic short hair calico.

Andrea told me the boys named them. “Aidan chose KitKat before we went to pick her up, and Austin chose Kisses after we got home that afternoon. Their names fit their personalities well! Kisses is very affectionate. KitKat is Miss Independent and constantly getting into mischief. Kisses takes on the Momma role and is more timid. She can definitely be a “scaredy cat” at times.

They love to chase the little balls from the boys’ Nerf guns because they can easily fit in their mouths and bounce high. They also love to chase the laser pointer. They love laying outside on our screened porch. They love to pounce on each other and can get pretty rough. It’s hilarious to watch them, and they constantly keep us entertained!

We rescued them on December 1, 2017, from the Nashville Cat Rescue at Pet Supermarket in Cool Springs.”

Aidan is 13. He plays drums and is in a rock band called Donut Creme. He’s in 7th grade at Woodland Middle.

Austin is 10. He loves karate and is currently an orange belt. He has his green belt and will get his purple belt in April! He’s in 4th grade at Crockett Elementary.

Thanks for looking!

The Tucker Family Fall Mini Session {Nashville Pet Photographer}

January 23, 2019 mandy whitley

The Tucker Family have been my clients for many years, and I truly appreciate them coming back to me for their yearly furry family updates. This year we went to Smith Park in Brentwood and got some fun fall photos with their amazing pack! Click here to see their extended family session with their pets from a couple years ago. Each year they take a photo with a photo - starting with an image from their wedding!

Here is all the info about their three lovable pups:

Nana is five year old husky/great pyrenees/pittie mix adopted from Rutherford County PAWS. Her original name at the shelter was Nanook, but they shortened it to Nana which fit her old grandma "get off my lawn" personality! Her favorite things are walks, belly rubs and bossing everyone around. Although she can be a protector of her people, she can also be totally silly.

Briley is their 6 year old treeing walker coonhound mix, whom they also found at Rutherford County PAWS. Katie said, "Her name at the shelter was Peanut . . . which had to go." So they took a few days to think about a new name, and they thought Briley sounded the sweetest for such a sweet dog. He's a big fan of riding in the car, chewing bulky sticks and taking up all the space in the bed.

Last, but definitely not least, is Josi (Yo-C)! He's a 3 year old Aussie/Pittie/cocker spaniel mix who was dumped in a local park. Katie says she was in the right place at the right time to find him, and now he's a big part of the family! She named him after the Nashville Predators defenseman, Roman Josi. Josi isn't a fan of peanut butter, but he does love playing with toys, being in everyone's personal space, and going on walks. Their favorite thing about him is his goofy personality -- and of course those freckles!

Hope you enjoy a few of my favorites!

The Watkins Family {Nashville Pet Photography}

The Watkins are on the blog this week with their new, very adorable puppy, Jack!

Jack is a 10 month old Piebald soft-wire dachshund. I love how human his eyes look & his general amazing fluffiness!

Paige said she and her husband David agreed on the name Jack after several days of debating human names for puppies. I love human names for pups too.

Jack loves playing catch, hiking, and the dog park. He does not like being left alone.

They love his curiosity and outgoing personality. He makes friends easily anywhere he goes and makes us smile everyday. They also love that dachshund have large personalities in small bodies.

Enjoy a few of my favorites from this fall mini session!
