3rd Class In for a 3 Month Old Puppy... Wow Watch Out!…read more We started off at Canis, and it was truly awesome. Unfortunately, after a few sessions, the co-owner, Derrick, messaged me through their chat platform to say that our puppy had been making noise in her crate that day. This was a one-off situation -- she'd had some stomach issues in the days prior -- but he warned that if it happened two more times, she would be removed from the program. I understand it's their program and their rules, but his communication style was extremely direct -- almost as if he were speaking to a dog -- harsh and matter-of-fact. He told me that how I receive and perceive his messages is "on me." Talk about customer-oriented! If he ever took a class on people or management, he might learn that there's an old saying: perception is reality. I also had a few billing questions, and since texts weren't resolving the issue, I asked multiple times for him to call me, which he eventually did. From the start of that call, he was defensive and completely closed to any feedback about his communication style. I was honestly shocked at how the conversation unfolded and even asked if he was the owner or manager. Despite all this, I genuinely wanted to continue working with them. In short, they removed us from the program the very next day and promptly refunded our fees. My advice: don't offer him any feedback -- he doesn't take it well. It's a real shame, because the staff at Canis are wonderful, and the facility and programs themselves are truly impressive. We had been raving fans and recommended them to everyone, so this turned out to be a very disappointing experience.

CMDT is the absolute BEST! When looking for trainers and puppy/dog socialization spots my husband…read moreand I did extensive research and interviewed places to ensure we felt comfortable and confident that our pup would be in the best hands. I cannot express how glad we have been with our decision to bring our dog to CMDT. Bee and Derrick are wonderful. They make themselves available (within reason) for any questions or help with training. The classes are informative and have been instrumental in our dog's fantastic training progress. Our pup has always come home happy, healthy, and tired from a day of socialization and training when she goes to puppy daycare, and we love watching the livestream so we can see her having a blast. What I personally appreciate the most about CMDT, beyond the care and compassion of the trainers who undoubtedly love the dogs, is the method of training they provide. No harsh punishment necessary. The dogs learn through basic positive psychology and reward association. We do the homework between classes and have seen our dog become more well mannered, confident, and happy through good training. If she could leave a review I think she would say CMDT is her favorite spot, given how excited she is every time we pull up. Thank you to Bee, Derick, and the other trainers who have treated our sweet girl like their own precious pup!

Carrie and her team did an amazing job with our wedding in the fall of 2014. She had the perfect…read morepersonality and presence to get all the shots we wanted in a small timeframe. Her prices are reasonable and packages include multiple shooters, an engagement shoot, and a wedding guest book made with photos from the engagement shoot. The turn-around to receive our photos was about 2 months. The quality of the photos is fantastic, and I love that she gave us both high quality images and lower-quality watermarked images to use on social media.

Good pictures start from being at ease and Carrie will definitely put you at ease. Even from the first consultation, she makes you feel like you are the only client and the only one that matters. Her pictures are amazing and every now and then she'll say "Let me try something" - those will be the best pictures. One thing I was not expecting was for her to help me draw up a timeline for the day. I didn't have a wedding planner and kind of cobbled it all together myself. Carrie, based on all her experience, advised me on getting hair and makeup done earlier (she was right), having the flowers delivered earlier (she was right again - especially since the delivery was running late), and leaving earlier to get to the church. As she said, no bride has ever complained about being too early. I wasn't too early at any stage and her timeline actually prevented me from being late and stressed out. The second photographer she came with (Dan) was just as great. After meeting him for the first time on the day of the wedding, I was instantly at ease with him in under 5 mins. I could go on and on but no one will read a super long review. Bottom line - book Carrie. You won't regret it!

We usually always request for Mari who is our favorite photographer. She knows us very well and every year she greets us with a big smile as if we are family. The trend these days is to take these glamorous photos out in the open that it is very expensive and extremely time consuming. For my family and our schedule we need something that is quick, efficient, yet captures our children's image perfectly as they age. For the amount of money you would spend at Portrait Simple, getting every single photo in digital format in addition to printed wall portraits, you'll never beat the price.

This review is long over due. I first hired Stephanie and Tim for my December engagement pictures…read more(2018). I was in a bit of a crunch because my fiancee is in the military, and I wanted to take pictures before he went back overseas. I talked to Stephanie over the phone before the photoshoot to go over the location, and the type of photos I was looking for in the session. She was professional and very accommodating. She arrived early to check out the location I had picked, and we talked about some ideas beforehand and during the session. It was my first time taking formal pictures in public like this, so I was nervous, but she made us feel very comfortable. At the end I was so happy with the results, the picture came out were AMAZING!! Fast forward to wedding planning (2019). . . I contacted Steph and Tim. I felt so comfortable during the engagement photoshoot with her, that there was no one else in mind to photograph my wedding. During the wedding process we talked about pricing (she was very fair), and the types of photos I wanted. During the wedding she was very patient, kind, and professional. Everyone at my wedding party, including the vendors loved her! She was exceptional! The day after the wedding she send me 7 samples, and the results were breathtaking! I highly recommend scenescerity images for all your photography needs. I know this probably won't be the last time I hire them, looking forward to working with them in the future.
