Katy stepped in the final weeks leading up to our wedding to be our dog handler when our usual dog walker unexpectedly canceled on us. Multiple times throughout the day, and afterwards we both agreed we were glad our dog walker canceled because Katy truly was truly a better handler in every sense of the word, and made our experience seamless, putting us at ease instantly. Wedding planning can be high anxiety, and taking portraits, with a 72 pound, young rambunctious dog is not easy. Katy texted us without prompting to let us know she picked him up early, took him on a walk without being asked to get some wiggles out pre-photos, and bought him a bandana for the occasion. When it came time to take pictures she was happy to yell his name, squeak a ball, sit him in good positioning, repeat commands, and do whatever necessary to help our photographer get the shot. He was truly happy and you can tell that in every single photo. Katy went above and beyond to take care of Zurich and us in every single aspect, and I could not recommend her highly enough. You can tell through all of her actions that she takes each job seriously, brings a passion, and love to her work, and approaches each client with incredible intuition to ask the right questions, and take proactive measures without prompting, letting you just soak in the day and not worry about all the little details. I mean a Pride bandana for a queer wedding, who does that?!?! And the answer, Katy.
