  "I realized that no one had writen a testimonial for Graham is ages and that is just unacceptable and can just not happen...so here you go Graham!....
  I remember when I first discovered you. You amazed me with your pictures from the very begining. They are always so creative and random and like no one else. You are unique and different in the best ways possible.
  I loveee that you love Lady GaGa. She is the shit no doubt. I love that you love triangles (sometimes in circles).
  I can just see you working for a high fashion magazine or Lady GaGa herself or anything in that general area. (:
  OH! How could I not mention your hair, it is so epic and perfect allll the time.
  I know for a fact that photography will take you great place. You are such an inspiration and you have so much talent. And there is soooo much more I could say, I could go on and on but I'd rather not write a novel! I cannot wait to see what your next big thing is Graham! :)"

  "just some time ago, i saw graham commenting on a photo here and there and decided to check his own work out. his stream was everything. he definitely brings new meaning to the phrase 'self portrait' and his recent senior photoshoots have all turned out incredibly well. i really must applaud all of his work. i definitely look forward to each post he makes and that is often so it is a win-win situation. keep the great shots coming! :)"

  "What makes Graham awesome. :)
  -He may be 19, but he likes fruit roll ups.
  -His hair is epic, and in a majorly cool way.
  -We are Dweebs United. :) He also has a stuffed dog named Duke.
  -He is easily the nicest hot guy I have ever talked to.
  -He says "haha" too much and uses more exclaimation points than necesary; he also makes me smile without knowing it.
  -He seems true to himself.
  -We WILL meet one day, and when we do, we're going to take wonderful pictures that will blow everyone's minds. :)
  -He teaches me names of towns in North Carolina, even if I wont remember them the next day.
  -He is obsessed with random things, like zombies and triangles and putting pictures in circles.
  -He inspires me, and others, to be better photographers.
  -People WILL know his name some day."

  "I could look at Grahams photos all day if I could. He's just so talented and kind. The lighting in his photos is always perfect in addition to the flawless focus and composition. I'm still trying to get over the fact that he's a fellow North Carolinian and has yet to move to a big city of some sort...Graham is in short, amazing.
  
  
  Oh, and Graham is a rather attractive member of the male specimen. : )"

  "I've been following his photo stream for quite some time, and it is very apparent that he is an artist with great ambition and is constantly searching and striving to improve himself. That being said, he has succeeded in producing each image that is somehow different or better than the last. I look forward to following his progress, and reading all the lovely things he has to say about the people he encounters and the experiences he has with them."

  "oh la la! yes, i said oh la la. want to know why? because we're talking about freaking graham, and he deserves all the oh la la's in the world. not only is he just like one of my favorite people or the most amazingly awesome sweet heart on flickr, he's an amazing photographer. this guy is going places so you better remember his face, that's an order. so when he becomes famous you could be like 'oh em gee that's graham, i followed his stream way back when' and everybody will be all 'like whoa'. in conclusion, take the time to admire his work - because it's amazing, and take the time to get to know the actual photographer - because he's just as amazing.

  "wow. that's the first thing that comes to mind when i look at graham's photography. and not the "wow" like, "eh, it's great, but whatever.." but the "wow" that does just what it suggests: it wows you. stuns you. inspires you. i think you get the gist.
  graham has such original ideas in his photography and you can tell he's so ambitious about it. anyone who looks at his photostream will agree with that. you are bound to favorite a good dozen of graham's photos. they are simply amazing.
  i'm jealous of his work. you can tell from every picture that there's something special to share, and that graham has got a great heart.
  not to mention he's super nice!! =]
  so go take a peek! you won't regret it, i promise. this boy has got a gift that will take him places."

  ok, so first of all. you who are reading this are looking at an amazing photographer. every photo in his photostream (and video for that matter) is completely and awesomely original. he somehow gets this insane amount of ideas and i'm not sure how his head manages to not explode as a result, but that's ok because we don't want graham's head to explode!!!! nonononono. that would be good.
  
  second! he has an awesome north carolina-y accent. who doesn't love cool accents like that?? i mean, come on.
  
  thiiiird. i have a question to ask. if you read all that stuff i just said, why are you still sitting here reading testimonials??!?!?! go look at his photostream, NOW! gogogogogogogogogogogoGO!!!!! do it! hehe ^^
  
  keep up the good work graham :)"

  his 'daily flickr videos' were genius and i really think he should bring them back, at least once a week!
  
  graham is one of the sweetest guys on flickr and he has an amazing personality. he also has super amazing hair!

His shots always have a funny, original title, concept or description, which is incredibly entertaining, and every shot is awesome. So, basically, in conclusion Graham=awesomeness. XD"

  "You're about to read the adventures of Graham Morrison and Sunshine Doll. You will be blown away by our awesome-ness.
  
  You have been warned :)
  
  The day I met Graham Morrison I thought I’d stepped into a cartoon. Everything was bright and colorful; I wouldn’t be surprised to look up and see that the sun was smiling with a cool pair of Woody Allen glasses on. Anyway, I was walking down the street soul-searching—I promise you, it’s a common activity—when I tripped over my shoelace and fell face first onto the concrete. I braced myself for the fall, pushing my hands out in front of me, but I didn’t escape without scraping my knee. The cut stung a bit; I got up and limped. It was exhausting to move (yes, I am a wimp), and I crumpled down in a patch of grass.
  
  I sat, twiddling my thumbs, trying to regain my courage and source of dignity. I heard a noise beside me, looked to my left, and jumped. A goofy looking boy with a swirl of brown hair, and bright dancing eyes looked at me, a wide, hitched smile on his face. His teeth were stunningly white, but in a true, real way, not like the Crest models’. His skin was flawless; his emotions was real. He wore a striped t-shirt and shorts, and he looked at me and said, “Do you want an Otter Pop?”
  
  It’s really common knowledge that Otter Pops are delicious, so I had no choice but to say yes, and I limped off after him. He noticed, and pulled a band-aid out of his pocket. I put it on, and we continued.
  
  He danced ahead of me, spirits high, his laugh rumbling.
  
  “What’s your name?” I asked him.
  
  “Graham Morrison.”
  
  He spoke without a challenging note; he was simple, he was confident, he was Graham Morrison.
  
  We went to the nearest grocery store, where he opened a box of Otter Pops and took out two. He asked to pay for them, and the middle-aged cashier looked at him in surprise. “Sir, we’re not allowed to sell just these two. You need to buy the whole box.”
  
  “Why?” he wanted to know.
  
  “Because we sell them like that.”
  
  “Well there’s no need in taking more than I need,” Graham said, handing the cashier a twenty for the two Popsicles. He left the cashier, astounded, holding out change. We headed out the door. He handed me the pink Otter Pop while he ripped open the green one.
  
  “Why did you do that?” I asked him, surprised.
  
  “Do what?”
  
  “Pay that much for these Popsicles that are probably only worth about fifty cents?”
  
  He looked at me seriously then, his face firm. “He’ll buy some ice cream for his kids. Maybe he’ll buy his son a birthday present. Maybe he’ll donate it to charity. You give people the means to do something wonderful and they will.”
  
  “He might just buy some cigarettes,” I countered argumentatively. “He might just buy some beer.”
  
  “Trust in others,” he said simply, his tongue now green from the juice. “Now, let’s go explore the world.”
  
  Soul-searching was different with Graham. That day we ran around sitting in shopping carts, dangled from monkey bars, built Lego Men out of sand on the beach. We made cities out of Playdoh, dressed up like wild things, helped old men cross the street. We rode bikes without holding the handles, drove cars with our knees, and made dream catchers out of an old sweater. We texted messages to random numbers, left inspirational notes on the streets, tagged old buildings with cans of spray paint we found lying in an alley. We carved small animals out of tree bark, tried on clothes in the mall, jumped in the fountain at the food court. We pretended that we were dolls, we dressed up like nerds, we ran away from angry looking scene kids. We played tag with little kids, we made a mud pit in someone’s yard. We became all the stereotypes, we killed all the labels. We made headbands out of paper, painted our faces bright colored streaks. We wrote a fairytale that captured the world. We watched cartoons and reenacted them. We jumped on rides made for little kids, pretended to be mannequins in department stores, made faces at strangers, found faces in places. We went to toy stores and handed out presents to five-year-olds with Nutter Butter crumbs on their faces. We broke a see-saw and spent half an hour fixing it. We took pictures, millions of pictures, savoring the moments. We forgot what society thought and demanded, we became what we wanted and aspired for. We flew to the moon in a rocket and jumped out into space among the stars. We gave free hugs to strangers, we laughed, we smiled.
  
  There were no limits.
  
  We talked. Most importantly we talked.
  
  And as we lay surrounded by tall grass, staring up at the setting sun, he looked at me, his smile still bright, and his eyes still laughing.
  
  Hair was in my face; it hid my eyes. I was afraid I was going to cry.
  
  His eyes studied me. “Why are you sad?”
  
  “It’s over,” I whispered, tears threatening to spill. I avoided his penetrating eyes.
  
  “What is?”
  
  “The day.”
  
  “Nothing’s over unless you let it be.”
  
  "Do you have these days everyday?"
  
  "Yes."
  
  I had no doubt he spoke the truth.
  
  I sighed, pulling up my arms under my chin, tilting my head, and absorbing the grass. The clouds moved, the sky became dark, the stars came out. Wind whistled through the long grass, turning us into dark silhouettes. A small smile crept over my face.
  
  “What do you think the meaning to life is?” I asked him, softly, biting my lip. The mood enveloped me, making me exhausted. I bit my lip wistfully.
  
  “The answer is to live,” he said in his simple, easy way. I couldn't see him at this point, but I was reassured that he was there. The answer slid off his tongue, and everything made sense. “The answer is to live, and today, m’lady, we have. Life is free, love is free. Just learn how to trust.”
  
  And I closed my eyes and forgot my expectations and my reservations. I focused on breathing, focused on the radiating light that built up from within.
  
  We closed our eyes, surrounded by the night sky, the stars echoing songs above us. Crickets chirped; the soil was cold against our bodies. We dreamed, we laughed, we loved.
  
  And we believed."
