When I was doing crazy wedding day arrangements and setting it all up one of the most important…read morethings was finding a photographer! I really liked Jacky's style of photography. Casual, in the moment, natural lighting (love how she does lighting) and she doesn't use a bunch a cheesy filters. In the end we decided to use her for our engagement photos and we were really happy with the outcome! We were pretty happy with the first photo shoot and even decided to do a 2nd one in the end. First of all, Jacky is a Midwest gal and she's really easy to be round. Laid back and chill she felt just right to me since I'm from the Midwest too! There's something about us Midwesterners! Arrangements for the shoot were easy to make and Jacky is quick to communicate with. Mostly via email. She's open to pretty much any location we wanted and was flexible with timing. We didn't ask for anything crazy but I'm sure she would've been fine with it. My now husband and I had never done a photo shoot before and Jacky was the perfect photographer to start with. It's pretty uncomfortable being the sole focus of a big camera if you're not used to it! It was awkward at first of course but as we got used to it and with Jacky's easy manner we felt more at ease. Her photography personality is more relaxed where she lets the subject do their thing and then every now and then suggests. It makes the photos come out a lot less posed and more natural. Our 2nd shoot was even better since we were pretty used to it and we had a lot of fun doing silly things. We ended up using our photos for a save the date card and a bigger photo for our reception. And of course we changed our Facebook profile pics with shots Jacky took! I haven't needed a photographer for anything but in the future hopefully I can still call on Jacky! I've seen her family shots and they are pretty adorable and not cheesy too.

Despite the…read morefact that I consider myself to be extremely knowledgeable and competent in all manners of fitness movement and health, Ethan is still able to critique and improve my performance and get me better results than I'm able to get on my own. Ethan is like a trainer for other trainers, he's also wonderful and hilarious to hang out with which is a major boon considering some of the grueling workouts he can craft for you. But don't get me wrong, Ethan isn't all about leaving you depleted, he's also a master mover and will teach you how to move your body so that if you ever stop training with him, you will know how to train yourself from the wisdom he has bestowed upon you. If that weren't enough Ethan does some epic "bodywork" or what some people call massage therapy, it's the kind that leaves you in a puddle on the floor smashed to goo feeling completely renewed. If you've always wanted a health and fitness guru of your own, one that can answer all your questions without the bullsh** this is your guy.

I've had my fair share of visits with the vet because anytime somethings wrong with my dog, I try and get it checked out right away. The people here are very kind, thorough, they make sure to ask all the questions and also answer all the ones I have. Again, prices are super reasonable too especially with some others in the area I've tried out. If you're in the La Crescenta/ La Canada area, I HIGHLY recommend this place.

We had tried what felt like everything and his separation anxiety was so bad that it got to the point that my partner and I basically gave up our social lives, had to coordinate with one another one of us would be going to the market or if it would be a trip where we both can go but someone sits in the car with our dog. We met the team at K9 Logic Dog Training and they assessed our dog and determined what kind of training program would be best for him to address his separation anxiety and the other skills we wanted to work on. Within a week we noticed progress. We finally were able to leave the house for an hour and go to the market together. Week by week the time has gradually gotten longer where we have been able to leave him alone for longer periods of time to reclaim our social life back. I was skeptical at first, but after that first week I became a believer. We are so happy with the results that for the purpose of just giving him structure and routine we signed him up for more classes and he LOVES being at school. We've also participated in the weekend group training sessions and they are so helpful to not only give our dog routine, but it's a great way to reinforce structure and keep him sharp with everything he learned at school. Signing up for training with K9 Logic Dog Training was the best decision we could made for our dog to set him up for success.

After a consultation at the residence-turned-dog-training-facilty we decided on the 3 week boarding program. We boarded our Maltipoo pup, Remy, during the peak of teething-destory everything era while we were out of town for wedding. The trainers were really great and patient with him. You could have also tell Remy was very comfortable with them. When we picked up Remy he was happy, healthy and very excited to see us. He also exhibited more attention and checked in with us more. Pulling on the leash became non-existent and his new default is now to sit in a heel position. The only improvement I'd suggest is that I wish I received more updates regarding Remy while he was boarded. We received a photo and say a couple of videos on Instagram, but more would have been welcomed. Regardless, we're happy with the training and the additional homework/tips to practice while at home. Remy continues to be a regular at the group trainings and other outings hosted by K9 Logic. I feel comfortable with my pup socializing with different dogs in the presence of the K9 Logic team.

2025 was my first time going to this music festival. Without a lot of research, I feel like this…read morefestival has a common through line of musicians who love to use synthesizers in their music - 80s new wave, goth, industrial, etc., etc.. An exception I also noticed was different shades of punk as well. As a festival, I thought it was well organized and the location was good (next to the Rose Bowl). It wasn't too large and there were lots of great options for food and drink. Bathroom lines weren't crazy and there were water filling stations. For reference: I had a VIP ticket, which may have helped with bathroom lines and lines to some of the food/drink vendors. Great viewing locations for VIP, but the Clubhouse level gave you access really close to the stage. I personally believe there are two major camps (with all different types of shades in between) of folks who go to music fests - 1) people who just love going to fests love the experience and vibe regardless of the line up. 2) people who go to a fest specifically for a particular lineup that piques their interest. I would say I fall into more the second category. The 2025 lineup in particular was a dream lineup for me! My favorite band growing up was New Order. OMD's Sugar Tax spent countless hours in my walkman and I love music from The Go-Go's and Alison Moyet. And up until this point, I haven't been able to see any of them live except for New Order. Devo, Clan of Xymox (loved their music on 'The Guest' soundtrack), She Wants Revenge, Buzzcocks, and 'Til Tuesday were very nice bonuses. Only sad part really was that I wanted to see Nick Cave but had to choose between this and The Go-Go's. I chose The Go-Go's because I was going to try and watch them at The Roxy, but secondary market tix for that was like $500 : / Just a bunch of bands and musicians I wanted to see all wrapped up in one festival! I would definitely love to come back to a future fest and would even consider tix at the 'Clubhouse' level ($1,000 in 2025), but like I mentioned above, for me, it would really depend on the lineup during that given year.

Whether you are a Goth Princess, a Die Hard Gen X, a Dark Synth Fan, or an 80s music guru, this music festival has the best lineups for you. My husband and I went to the first Cruel World Fest, which had been postponed due to the pandemic, and since then, we have gone every year... with no plans to stop. Through the years I have seen so many music legends. And what I love is that they also showcase many younger bands that have similar styles. I have learned about several new favorite bands. This year we had some cooler weather and even a little rain, but it did not stop the party. In fact, It was appreciated after having been to the fest in the 100 degree heat a couple years back. Goldenvoice has gotten better and better at throwing the festival. There are more water stations (bring a refillable bottle) and more bathrooms set up. Getting in is a breeze, and lines are mostly short. We usually opt for GA+ for cleaner restrooms, but it is not really necessary. The merch line is usually ridiculously long, but we stopped by later in the day and got a couple of shirts after only about three minutes in line. This year for me was amazing. There was so much great music, I barely had time to eat anything... and we were there for about 11 hours. I was able to see Nick Cave for the first time. OMD put on an amazing show as always. Highlights for me were hearing Midge Ure sing Vienna and dancing to Stereo MCs in the rain. Can't wait to find out the lineup for next year!
