Working with Chris on our wedding and engagement photos was a blast. He couldn't be nicer, is…read morealways smiling, and gets great shots surprisingly quickly. His style is artistic/journalistic in that he captures candid, well-composed shots but will also suggest that you adjust your body so you don't look completely awkward. My sister's wedding photographer wouldn't do that, and we ended up looking pretty awkward in a few shots (e.g., necks stretched, hands in weird places). His turn around time was AMAZING- we had our digital images in a couple of weeks. Many photographers guarantee your digital photos within the YEAR but quicker if you buy very expensive prints/albums from them. Chris is an honest businessman AND a talented artist. Even more, he's a pleasure to be around, and that goes a long way in the stressful hustle and bustle of your wedding day.

I've known Chris for over ten years, and when we got engaged one of the easiest decisions we had…read morewas who our wedding photographer would be. His natural talent at capturing emotion and light, and his ability to blend into your wedding party like a photo-ninja, will provide you with beautiful memories that will last a lifetime.

Steph and the manager Chris (Christine), were horribly awful to me accused me of stealing cats. I had to send a picture of the dead person (literally) to PROVE she was dead.

WTF Both of them need to be fired! They wouldnt give me the boards info because they knew they messed up. Awful place. Warehouse. Animals in animals out. They try to squeeze as much money out of you as they can. It's pretty bad ya'll. If you have another option TAKE IT.

Absolutely love this place and the people who run it. They are so amazing to the animals.read more

Most of the stock (fish and plants) here is designed for tanks of 29 gallons or less, which is appropriate for the student population living in limited housing spaces. The fish are kept very healthy with a system which continually refreshes the water. The bettas, which (of course) is their specialty, are fancy indeed. These are not the kind of $5 bettas for sale at the local big box store, these are breeder quality fish. The ancillary goods are from very reputable companies, including Ultum Nature Systems, Aquarium Co-Op, Hugger, and Seachem. They know what fishkeepers need. Being from LA (I'm visiting my son spending my money...er, I mean studying at Oregon State), I've been to many retailers. PNW Betta would rank quite highly even compared to shops in bigger cities. Please support them, this is a quality local business!

They are careful who they select and they interview you for a reason. They love their dogs. I reached out to Sally in 2020 after losing our Yorkie Rikey..I placed a $500.00 deposit with her for a puppy, but ultimately decided to adopt another Yorkie. Sally actually offered and gave the non-refundable deposit back, when she did not have to. Ultimately it was a huge mistake going with the Yorkie and other breeder, she sent us home with a puppy with giardia and a very unhealthy dog that had to have surgery and then became vicous with us because of something wrong with his brain. The breeder offer us no support or help. Ultimately we had to have him put down. Heartbreaking. I called Sally backand got on her list and we brought home our precious Lillian Grace in Feb 2022. She has beeneverything Sally promised and more! Sally's home is clean and she provides excellent care and communication from conception. You get pics of x-ray with your baby and pics of birth, videos amd pics every week until you pick your baby up. She is the best breeder we have ever worked with. You can call her anytime you need advice or have questions. We are already on the waitlist to bring another baby home!

The animals looked healthy - but that's about as far as the positives go. Now for the rest of it. Theyre blatantly dishonest and attempting to scam people by saying the animals have traits that they, in fact, do not have. As a reptile breeder (of a lot of the same animals they're selling) I know for a FACT that the animals do not have the traits they're saying, and even if they did have the traits that advertised, they'd still be incredibly overpriced. The prices in this store are astronomical, and not only on their animals, but also on their plants, supplies, and feeders. Beyond that they're a cash only store, and they blame that on payment processor fees. Trouble with that is your markup on products MORE than compensate for the fees charged by visa, and even the ones charged by more expensive companies like American Express and Discover. Honest mistakes certainly happen in business. But these are no mistakes, they're simply dishonest. Buying livestock from MorphMarket would be cheaper (even with shipping costs) than buying from here, and you'll have the added benefit of knowing you're purchasing from a reputable breeder, and not a second hand scammer. They only get the one star for cleanliness. Overall, I will never return to this store, and I'd highly advise that you don't pay them an initial visit. Get animals from real breeders, and get supplies down the street from Petco. These people are swindlers.

The store is right off a main street, and very, very easy to find - I love the big mural on the side. Inside, it's clean, brightly lit, and odor free. They've got a good selection of amphibians and reptiles, though I get why they wouldn't want to call it "Herptopia." I was able to get the frogs I wanted (and a few more), and check out a lot of really cool other critters. The staff are pleasant, friendly, and knowledgeable. I would say I'd go back again, but it's a six hour flight each way. ;) They're cash only, though they have an ATM on site. This is a narrow margin industry and I absolutely get why.
