FOR MANY OF US, AUGUST IS A BITTERSWEET TURNING POINT IN THE CALENDAR YEAR. Summer freedom is drawing to a close, and the school bells will be ringing any day now. While the lazy days of sipping cool beverages poolside may be numbered, this month brings a sense of renewal. New routines, new clothes, new school supplies and the start of football often come to mind in August. And because we dedicated an issue to both the men and women of our community earlier this year, it would only be right to celebrate some of our cutest residents: kids and pets! There’s no doubt we have some serious pet lovers in Hendersonville. Meet a couple of them at work (along with their four-legged friends) and you’ll find what makes the bond between humans and animals so special. Have you checked out the senior portrait scene lately? Today’s seniors have

ARTICLE AND PHOTOGRAPHY RICK MURRAY

DURING AUGUST, AS SUMMER BEGINS TO WIND DOWN, MANY PEOPLEâ€™S THOUGHTS BEGIN TO LOOK TOWARD THE RETURN OF FALL AND THE ONSET OF A NEW SCHOOL YEAR. As temperatures moderate and trees don their fall colors, it is the perfect time of year for high school senior portraits. Every successful senior portrait project begins with selecting the right photographer to match your goals and your budget. Although there are numerous portraiture professionals in the Hendersonville area, there is no one who is a perfect fit for every client. Accordingly, prospective clients need to do careful due diligence before selecting their photographer. Factors that need to be considered include style, flexibility, pricing, location, image delivery and personality. A careful review of prospective photographer portfolios can reveal a great deal about style and pricing. However, a face-to-face consultation is always best for determining client-photographer compatibility. Good chemistry between the photographer and the client is critical. Once the photographer has been selected, there are several other factors that need to be considered before the portrait session. To help you achieve the best results, local professional photographer Rick Murray (Memories By Murray) offers a few hints and tips to help you get the most out of your portrait experience.

styling tips

Women should avoid shiny makeup. Powder can be used to eliminate excess sheen.

posing tips

Most seniors prefer outdoor portraits. Natural light photos look best when captured during early to mid-morning or late afternoon due to flattering lighting conditions.

Men should avoid haircuts right before the session.

Do not rule out overcast days. Colors can be more natural and pleasing when there is no direct sun.

Avoid clothing that is white or has bright red or magenta colors as these colors tend to bleed.

Prior to the session, the senior should be asked to select favorite items and clothing that best reflect their personality. Examples include sporting items, musical instruments, awards, etc. Pets also add a personal touch.

Bring multiple outfits to showcase different interests and styles.

Tell your photographer about any specific poses/family groupings you want.

Don’t overuse clothing with patterns.

Often times, seniors want some of their friends and/ or family members included in some of their photos. Be sure to alert the photographer in advance so that appropriate settings and poses are included.

Hendersonville Lifestyle | August 2019

Deputy Brian Gambino and Jax

SUMNER COUNTY SHERIFF’S DEPUTY BRIAN GAMBINO AND HIS PARTNER, JAX Beginning this summer, the Sumner County Sheriff’s Department is activating a new K-9 division that pairs deputies and highly trained dogs as patrol partners. While the duo will be specially trained in drug interdiction, they will also be involved in normal patrols across Sumner County. “We are excited about our new K-9 division and the opportunities it will provide,” says Sumner County Sheriff Sonny Weatherford. “This team will give us a new skill set that will let us provide needed services to our community without having to solicit help from other departments.” Initially, the K-9 division will entail a single team consisting of veteran Deputy Brian Gambino and his German shepherd partner, Jax. Deputy Gambino was chosen in March 2019 by a three-person selection committee consisting of veteran dog handlers, including Sheriff Weatherford, who had been part of a K-9 team back in the late ‘80s and early ‘90s. “We had several quality candidates for the position, but we wanted to make certain that we selected the right one to start up the program,” Sheriff Weatherford says. “After reviewing all applicants, the committee unanimously selected Deputy Gambino.” Jax, an 18-month-old Netherlands native, was purchased by the Sumner County Anti-Drug Coalition and donated to the Sheriff’s Department. He received his name as the result of a department-wide contest. “We had a lot of fun with the contest, and we received over four pages of potential names,” Sheriff Weatherford says. “However, in the end, we let Deputy Gambino make the final selection.” Although Jax was received as a donation, the department still had to spend thousands of dollars on patrol vehicle modifications, a custom kennel and an intense officer-dog training program. “It takes 10 weeks of training to get us ready to patrol together as a team,” Deputy Gambino says. “We are trained in multiple areas, including tracking, suspect apprehension and drug detection.” Once the training is complete, the K-9 duo is ready to begin patrolling across the county. Along with routine patrols, Deputy Gambino and Jax are also available for special community events. Ultimately, Sheriff Weatherford plans on adding additional K-9 teams as funding and manpower allow. “I would love to have another service dog this fall,” Sheriff Weatherford says. “I hope to budget for additional units in the coming years.” However, until then, Deputy Gambino and Jax will patrol the streets alone.

Dr. Fulks’ family orientation also extends to his staff and his patients at Smile Construction Orthodontics. “We treat our patients like they are family,” he says. “Our patients love our welcoming environment. They know we are committed to the highest standards of care and comfort, and that we will take care of them like they are our own. “Our motto is ‘patients first,’” he says. “We begin every workday with a morning meeting where we share, say a prayer and end by saying ‘patients first’ together as a team.” As part of patient comfort and care, Smile Construction Orthodontics employs the latest in advanced technology and orthodontics techniques. 3D scanners are used to image

which the braces will be designed. The finished molds are used by Dr. Fulks to model and construct the soft, mouthguard-like braces needed for each patient. For patients considering orthodontics, Dr. Fulks has some sage advice. “What you want to choose in a doctor or a dentist is judgment—the judgment to determine which treatment is appropriate,” he says. “Some patients require more extensive services than others, and it takes good judgment to determine the proper course of treatment.”

“OUR MOTTO IS ‘PATIENTS FIRST, WE BEGIN EVERY WORKDAY WITH A MORNING MEETING WHERE WE SHARE, SAY A PRAYER AND END BY SAYING ‘PATIENTS FIRST’ TOGETHER AS A TEAM.” 30
