  "I've have followed you for quite some time now and i just cant help coming back and browsing through, every singe time I do I become more and more inspired. I have to thank you for encouraging me about a year ago when I first started flickr becuase you were a huge influence. I feel I have really grown since then and I just wanted to thank you for being part of that journey.
  So much talent for your age, all the things you have acomplished are just amazing, I hope some day I can relate to you in that way. But I don't think many people can say they do. The creative power to your mind set is extraordonary, and I love it.
  
  Never ever stop or hesitate as to what you are doing. You will always inspire me. Thanks a lot.

Her use of color and texture inspire me and she can tell beautiful stories with a camera. She has an amazing eye for composition and balance within the frame. Keep up the great work! Cheers =)"

  "I absolutely adore Lara's work. I've been following her career ever since I saw a magazine article about her about two years ago. Lara's work is always unique, thought provoking and most of all inspiring! Some of her work is beautiful, whilst other images are quite dark, but no matter what she's capturing it's always obvious that there's a deeper concept behind it. Technically you can't fault her and her post processing skills are second to none. All I really want to say though is Lara I adore your work and I truly can't wait to see what the future brings from you x
  
  P.s. loved your article on texture's in this months Digital SLR Photography!"

  "You're so talented, you always seem to amaze me with your pictures... I can even look at your stream for hours, just to observe everything.
  When somebody asks who my favourite photographer is, i would say Lara, because you really have your own style and for a woman that's still so young you are really doing something great with the gift you have.
  
  Keep on the good work!!"

  Roger Mann says:

  "There's a danger that adding this testimonial to an already long list will require Flickr to set up an addition site. I always think that it is not possible for Lara to improve on her work, but every time she posts new photographs that's exactly how it seems. Is there no stopping this woman? It can only be a matter of time before we see her name in Vogue magazine et al. Incidentally, I'm a fan."

  "lara is the strongest, most inspirational photographer i have ever had the pleasure of coming across. i've been watching her work since i was 15, not know she was the same age as me. she really gives me the drive personally to take pictures, because i've come to realize you don't need to be 30some years old to take good pictures. you just need to get out there, and keep taking pictures. and lara is constantly improving. her pictures just get better and better with every week. she is, and always has been my favourite photographer.

  "I have been watching your photostream for a very long time ago…and I do not have words to describe your talent and passion for photography. You have become one of the greatest inspiration for hundreds of photographers around the internet and around the world. And you will surely become a famous photographer[not that you aren’t very famous right now] and probably we all will see your works in magazines like Vogue or something similar.
  Every single picture of yours has something special,something that you can’t find in every picture you see.
  There’s something magic in your photostream that catches everyones eyes. And this makes you a great photographer.
  I will end with something that you wrote me a long time ago: “You will go places - just keep pushing yourself.”"

  "I've been a fan of yours for a while now, and meaning to write you a testimonial for ages (as if you needed any more) i just spent about the last two hours looking through your entire photostream...and i don't think theres much i can say other than 'WOW'. You're photos are unique, you have an instantly recognizable style, but I love the fact that you are not afraid to try new and different things as well. I just can't wait to see more from you. i never get tired of your photos no matter how many times i've seen them. Absolutely amazing, you are an inspiration to young people everywhere, not just photographers, you show us that anyone can make it if they follow their dream. Best of luck for the future! I'm sure it will be amazing."

  Trixy-Pixie says:

  "I've been watching Lara's progress for few years now. In the beginning i thought, here comes another self portrait person like many were on deviantart at that time,. But Lara since, has become one of my greatest inspirations. The versatility of her skills and constant learning never seizes to surprise me and keeps me trying harder myself. I can say positively, that without amazingly talented people like her, it would be definitely harder for people like me to learn and aspire! when you tell yourself that you are brilliant that is when you stop trying. It seems to me that Lara never stops trying no matter how many people think she is awesome, she still strives for perfection and progress. That is the biggest inspiration I guess. Good Luck !"

Here's to a bright future Lara - Cheers, Hans"

  "Lara Jade is so inspiring with her unique style of photography that will make you want to go out and try to obtain the same style that she has, but instead finding your very own. But once you've seen her work you cannot help but wait for her to post even more photos. But Lara Jade every single time surprises you with her unique imagination and style."

Each piece of work she creates really is outstanding and can be recognised as hers because of her unique and individual style.

  What I'm about to say have probably been said a million times, but that's just what comes with being an inspiration to a lot of people.
  
  I've been watching Lara's work for quite some time now, & she's been amazing from the beginning of, & she's only getting better & better.
  You can find almost everything in her art, & personally I think that everyone will find something they like, whether it's dark art or fashion shots.
  
  I'll stop now, & let her art speak for itself.
  
  Never give up what you're doing, Lara, too many people will miss you & your art. ;]"

  "LaraJade... I will always credit her for being THE photographer whose work inspired me to begin doing photography myself. And honestly, I think I am just one of many.
  
  Her self portraits have always been very personal, very intense, and incredibly creative. Technically impeccable. It has been exciting to watch her develop into one of the most influential young artists on the web, and more recently into a professional fashion photographer.
  
  What's most stunning of all is the level of her achievement at such an young age. I can hardly contain my excitement when I think of her immense potential and undoubtedly her incredibly bright future.
  
  Watch this girl people. She is creating history!"

  "In 25 years of being a professional photographer Lara Jade is one of the few photographers who's work consistently inspires me and makes me want to be a better photographer.
  As i talk with photographers from Australia, The U.S and Canada her name regularly is mentioned by other photographers who see her and her work as a standard that they hope to one day achieve.
  Destined to be one of the greats, well in many ways she already is."

  "Lara is an increasingly popular and increasingly talented photography. I got to know her through the popular art site 'deviantART' and i've seen her develop her own unique style. Already she has made it as a successful free lance photographer allowing her to develop her skills and her reputation at such a young age, preparing her for a very positive future. I've always been fascinated by her continuous creative flow and i'll always look forward to seeing more."

  Jeanette LeBlanc says:

  "LaraJade possesses the most natural talent I have ever encountered, on flickr or elsewhere. Her work is raw and edgy, her style is utterly organic and she always manages to successfully push both artistic and technical limits in the creation of her art. Her processing, simply put, is pure genius. She, at such a young age, has produced a body of work that is both technically masterful and wholly evocative. Awe is not a word I use often, or lightly – but awe is what I feel every time I visit LaraJade."

  digitalgopher says:

  "To say that Lara is extremely gifted would be the understatement of understatements. I can spot her work immediately because her art is like none other that I've ever seen... anywhere, let alone on flickr. People that have not taken the time to view her photostream are doing themselves a significant disservice. She is the master of capturing emotion, and no one can convey that emotion like she does. Her photographs are so engaging and elicit so much thought. It's difficult not to get lost in her photos. Each one is unique in it's own way and each one captures so much.
  
  I was astonished when I read her profile and visited her website and realized that I was looking at the work of a very young woman. Lara your work is extraordinary. Everything that you do is a work of art. You are an artist in every sense of the word. Thank you for the inspiration."

  Elizabeth Salib says:

  "Being a fan of Lara Jade is like saying that you're a fan of coffee houses, cellphones, or chocolate. It's absolutely impossible not to love her work. Both addictive and inspiring, Lara is a neverending source of creativity. Her imagination never seems to run dry of ideas, and I'm sure the entire Flickr community is grateful for that.
  
  When she first started out, it seemed she brought life to a whole group of photographers. I'm sure I wouldn't be the first to admit that Lara was primarily the reason I took interest in photography, and I most certainly will not be the last. Most great artists either seem to contribute a few brilliant finished works, or a great many just-above-average pieces, however Laura's entire stream is riddled with brilliance. Luckily, our addiction to her stream and to her work can be fed by the number of uploads she makes.
  
  So thank you once again, for being an endless supply of inspiration, and for sharing your work with everyone, even with all the hassle you've had over others stealing in the past. I'm sure you know it well and that it's needless to say, but you have a countless amount of fans who will back you up."

  "Lara is one of the brightest diamond on flickr, a real master of portraiture photography...it's hard for me to belive that she is only a teenager...her shots are amazingly professional; with a quality that many photograpers could be jealous of....
  
  she is also a vulcano of creativity...her shots are always extraordinary and full of beauty mixed with a very good taste...it's a very difficult task to take sophisitcated fashion shots using simple stuff....usually all these 'glamour' pics are boring, cause each one is almost the same like the other, but fortunately this case don't relate to her:)
  
  it's also amazing that Lara being so young, evolve a very characteristic and great style, which inspires many many people:)
  
  i simply LOVE your work! you are a star of flickr, of deviant and i hope that soon you will be popular all over the real world...but with such a big talent and experience it shouldn't be so hard:)
  
  Salute !

  "A year ago or so I saw a photo of hers on a google search. A self portrait I liked it very much and tried to find out more about the person in it and who took it. Then I found her profile on deviant, then find out what's her name and after that I've become addicted to her photos.
  I admire Lara very much, for her talent, creativity and skills in photography.
  Because of her work I remembered that I like photography since childhood and because of her work I decided to start photography.
  
  You're the no.1 photographer, Lara!"

The first time I came across her work, I was looking for a black and white picture for a value drawing assignment I had to do in art class. It was so hard to choose which one to draw. I don't think I'll ever know how she does it, but with every picture she always brings out that wow factor. Like everyone else has said, I can definitely see her going very far with photography in the future :)"

Her work is an inspiration to many and I couldn't be more proud of her. I love talking to her and watching her from a distance as she grows into her career. I look forward to taking some more photos with her as she takes further steps in her lifes work - shes a wonderful girl and i'm lucky to call her friend."

Not only does she seem to have an astounding natural talent, but she works hard, and this shows in every single shot. She can bring out the beauty in any model, and allows us to see things her way. Her work is proof that experience is not limited to age alone, and gives hope to other young artists; maybe they too can find the potential to create images as telling as hers.
  
  I hope that she will keep taking pictures and expanding her photographic talents- I have little doubt that she will be successful in anything she chooses to do."

  It happened to be Lara Jade's 'Modern Romance', and I've been a fan ever since.
  Her work is superb, amazing, and great quality. Lara's concepts just blow me away, and are an inspiration to me, and other aspiring photographers. Pieces like, 'Generations', 'Always', 'Up and Away', 'Displaced', and finally 'Karis Mae', have had great composition and quality, they are just very very beautiful artworks. I haven't seen a great photographer like that in my whole life.
  She's inspired me to become a photographer, and i think her work is one of the best i've ever seen.
  Lara Jade, your photos are just amazing to me! They are one of the best I've ever seen!
  Keep up the wonderful work, and keep thinking up new ideas. :] I can't wait to see your next piece."

  Diana Pinto says:

  "Lara Jade's work evokes two main emotions within young photographers: unadultered admiration and complete and undeniable jealousy. I know I'm guilty of both!! And who could blame me, or anyone else for the matter? I know that you have heard all of this before, and are perfectly aware of the validity of each testimonial, but I guess you should get used to it because you'll be hearing this a lot throughout your life.
  
  I can honestly say that Lara's photography and photomanipulations were, still are, and will continue to be a huge inspiration...one that definitely encouraged me from the beginning to commit to my interest in photography, and will keep on doing so as long as Lara's work is still avaiable to the public eye. She brings beautiful makeup, unique concepts, versatile subjects, and fresh ideas to each shoot and combines them with evident skill and quality. Lara has a truely creative soul; and, of course, the fact that she is stunningly gorgeous doesn't hurt her.
  
  Lara often complains of the fake, imitating sites she finds, or the artwork of hers that is constantly ripped and used without her consent. Now, the fact that someone would stoop so low is probably very frustrating. However, I once again ask the question, "Who can blame them?" If people think your work is worth stealing, you must be doing something right. Then punish them, painfully.
  
  So, Lara, thank you. Thanks for the inspiration, thanks for providing so many people with beautiful photos, and thanks for the admiration and jealousy that comes with it. Keep it up!"

  she rock on photography and photomanipulation at a level that no one can imagine she's just 17 years old.
  
  She is artist and object of her art at the same time, giving everyone a splash of sensuality and conceptualism, amazingly raising the bar of art without being vulgar.
  
  Lara is even a girl you cannot believe she exists. It's not possible...
  
  Wish you all the success! ;)"

  "Lara may have her doubters, but I believe she has proven time and again now that she more than has what it takes to suceed. Her photographs are stunning expressions of mood and emotion, reaching down deep into the viewers soul. With her exquisitie use of light, tones, and posing, coupled with her imagination and the ideas she conceptualises, you can't deny that Lara Coton has bucketloads of talent and an amazing mind. I am truly proud to have watched her photography journey from the very first photographs she posted on DA until now."

  "Wonderful pictures all over her galleries, her photostream is probably the first one that I saw on flickr first time I started to upload here and I was amazed by her pictures. Touching, romantic, great tones and compositions. It is a great pleasure for me to come and to visit her gallery, a feast for the eye, no doubt!"

  "Fom the simplest of portraits to the most complicated of concepts, Lara seems to excel in every department of photography. Her photos can make you say "oh wow" and "aww" at the same time. With a very concentrated number of models she makes every single shoot be very much different from the one before. She'll never seize to amaze me that's for sure."

  "Lara, a true talent at it's best. i have never before seen anyone with such killer inuition and creativity. her work is glorious at worst. not only is she a great portrait photographer, she is an excellent make up artist and hair stylist. lighting in her photos is beyond comment. a true talent, a person i admire and look up to, and there aren't many of those in my book.
  
  Cheers Lara, please do keep it up! and when you're making 100,000 $\photoshoot don't forget about me as an assistant :D"

  "Almost all would call her an inspiration, and some still doubt her capabilities. But those 'some' are only blind to the definition of true art and do not understand her extensive creativity and artistic imagination. There is not a single piece of work that is not unique or has not been experimented with by Lara Jade. If Mark Seliger deserves a praise, praises are merely an understatement for truly one of the world's most talented young photographers."

And on those she was inspired by something else, she added a little "Lara-flare" that made it her own and not just another imitation. She is a truly amazing artist--no doubt about that!"

  "Lara's photography is inspiring in more ways than one. She shows that it's not the equipment that takes the photograph but the person behind the camera. Each photograph presents a mood of some sort, a feeling, an intensity to some degree. She works well with colour and produces equally incredible b/w work.
  
  Inspirational, to say the least! Righto, on with my dinner."

Whatever she does, I wish her luck, and I hope she always keeps the flickr people in mind and keeps posting more and more of her great work."

  Miss Aniela says:

  "At barely seventeen, Lara's images are dreamlike visions, stuff I want to frame on my wall, let alone simply 'fave'. She is unbelievably beautiful, but more importantly she expertly ploughs that beauty timelessly into her images, using that beauty for herself, not for another person's possibly exploitative lens. Even the dumbest Flickrer can see that she is going places with professional photography in the future - simply because she already has an astounding professionalism."

People, we are looking at the new superstar photographer in the making. Easily on par with Mario Testino, David LaChapelle and anything that Conde Nast can throw at us."
