Let me start off with that he is extremely nice and extremely talented.
His vintage pictures are so cool and add a nice touch in his stream....his bike pictures are such a good style...and overall his sense of style is so inviting and real photography!
Plus he's such a good flickr friend....because he just seems to be loyal to his contacts...nice...and never says anything mean on purpose lol. I just think he is a good person and would never do anything bad. His pictures show it too!
Fanjason.....your a great flickr buddy!! :D"17th December, 2009

"I'll make this short.
I'm a fan and Flickr friend of Jason Fan. Jason has a lot of fans (and friends). Look at his list!
And there's a reason why:
1. He's a fantastic photographer
2. He, has NEVER EVER met a bike he didn't like
3. He makes vintage like nobody's business
4. He's got all the angles
5. He's prolific, everywhere (kinda like Tony - you know who I mean)
6. He's got words. This is the best part. His comments always mean something. He always provides some clue that he is looking with his eyes wide open and is actually seeing. A rare trait!
Thanks Jason. I tried to be short and sweet."12th December, 2009

Stephanie Matti says:
"It is about time I write one of these for you! Firstly, Jay is an awesome dude!
He manages to photograph the most ordinary things in the most interesting way making them look amazing! He has an eye for photography, and when it comes to composition of a photograph he definately knows what he's doing! I love the tones in every single one of his photos and the focus! Ah ... what am I babbling for?! Basically his photography is AWESOME and I'll admit, I wish I could produce such beautiful work myself one day!"11th December, 2009

Saxony Marie says:
"Jason has a special quality to his photos that make them personal to me. Almost every photo is skillfully composed with a simple, everyday subject. The simplicity of his subjects is in no way a shortcoming, but definitely works to his advantage. Between the amazing DOF and the tones, you're caught up in either a feeling of nostalgia or simply wishing you had been there. I admire the way he composes his shots, so simple and sweet, but manages to stir up emotion. That requires skill. It's beautiful (;"

"I have not been active here on Flickr for so long - just a couple of months - but it didn´t take long to discover this great guy and his beautiful photographs. Such a luck I had. His photographs have been an inspiration. And I´m not talking about his great technique and wonderful creativity. I´m talking mostly about his way to see life. His photostream is a collage of small beautiful everyday´s moments captured in such a creative way. A beautiful way to capture life and the joy of living it through appreciating those small beautiful details that make it much more interesting. So, take a break and smell the joy everyone :)"

"Jason is my new friend and I am so glad to have found him! He has such an eye for everyday life and captures the most beautiful moments that so many of us take for granted. You never would have thought about photographing in his technique until you saw it right in front of you. Everything he shoots and processes is a masterpiece. The treatments are so soft and the photos are just astounding.
Not only is he wonderful with the camera, but he is wonderful inside. It doesn’t take long to realize that someone is kind, friendly, and loving, a true soul. There’s not many out there like him. I thank you Jason for taking me and everyone else along on your day to day journeys, it’s been a blast!"9th November, 2009

"Well, I wrote a testimonial for Jason a long time ago, but now that I've come to know him better though Flickr, it's high time for an update :)
First off, Jason's photography is gorgeous. He has an amazing way of using bokeh and yummy tones to make his shots really stand out from the rest. I always look forward to his new uploads and I've probably favorited 95% of his stream by now!
Second, he's just a nice guy :) he always has something nice and creative to say about my photos, and his comments mean a lot to me. I'm honored to have you as a flickr friend Jay. Keep it up :)"12th October, 2009

"Everyone knows who Jay is!
His style in photography reflects the essence of vintage classics. The composition, tones, and mood encompass timeless and nostalgic beauty. Each shot is well thought of and yet seems so effortless for him to compose.
I feel truly blessed to have Jay as a contact and friend. He never fails to give a sincere comment. No wonder the Flickr community loves him to bits! He’s simply the best!
I look forward to seeing more of his work.

But jay is also an amazing photographer...such a unique style, even if i couldnt see who's it was i would know jays pictures, he has unique tones that make me so jealous. He also has a wonderful eye for things that you normally wouldnt shoot, but he can find the art in everything.

"Jay ... here we are. Me, trying to find my words to write the best testimonial you've ever read. I am not good at this, is very hard for me to express how I feel inside, but I will try my best.
Jay's awesome. I think everyone says that so's not a good start for me. Jay's amazing. Hmm...not good and not unique at all. Jay's awesome and amazing. Well that's better, I'll try something even better..let's see.
Jay's awesome, amazing, talented, a sweetheart, my inspiration, lovely, kind, with a big big heart, sweet, with a beautiful and emotional style of photography.
His work speaks for himself. I mean, everything's so delicate, so magical, so dreamy. With an old style but very very modern in the same time.
Flowers, parks, kids, cops, boats, rings, books, cameras, lines, balloons, even an acorn looks incredible in his photos.
When I need my time, my own time, to get lost in a magic world, in a dream world, i just have to watch his stream, and everything can be real for a few minutes.
He's always there for everyone, always trying to keep up with Flickr, trying to comment everyone, trying to be kind.... and he's doing this... he's a strong person and that's why he got my attention. Everyone needs a contact like Jay...everyone.
And maybe this is not the best testimonial, and maybe my english sux, and maybe i didn't use the right tense in every sentence, but I wanted to write a few words about my feelings for you, and to tell you how much i love your work, and how much i apreciate that you payed attention to me too, not because you liked that i commented you, but cause you trusted in my evolution, you watched me..and you're still watching.
I promise I will never stop wathing you too, cause your work makes me feel ... better, always.
With all my love and all my respect, for a good photographer,
Dudu."16th August, 2009

His photography is another thing that is amazing. Beautiful images, taken by a skilled man behind the camera. Those images can take you on a trip either down your own memory lane (might have something to do with all the vintage feeling;)), or on imaginery trips into wonderful places you can only dream of :)
But most of all, he's a good guy. With a heart in the right place.

I have been very lucky to witness the photographs that Jay has taken. Everything about his work is absolutely perfect, from the color, the tones, and composition. I really cant say enough about his composition because they are some of the best I have seen on Flickr. He is able to see ordinary things and photograph them in visually beautiful angles and compositions.
It takes a special person and photographer to be able to make simple things beautiful and Jay definitely has the ability to do this through his photography. Thank you so much for your continued support and I look forward to seeing more of your work!"4th June, 2009

gchic says:
"Jason always sees beauty in the most random of things. His photos/concepts are very imaginative, and sincere, and he always puts his heart in each of them. Such is the photographer that Jason is. :)
But more than his remarkable talent in photography, he has quite a unique gift with words too, as seen in his photo descriptions, and in the way he leaves comments in other people's streams. It's as if he sees beyond the photos and into the stories and emotions they convey, and he always takes time to say it out loud. His support has always given me encouragement each day. And I'm not the only one who says that! Just read through his testimonials and see for yourself. Jason is a flickr friend for keeps. :)
So thanks for the friendship, J. And thanks, too, for inspiring all of us with your gifts. :)

"Jay.. I have lots of good feelings about this person.
Most important of all, i adore of course his photographs! Jay has a style that brings u back to older times. Not because he is old fashion in his methods.. Definitely modern yet gives vintage to the mood he captured! It is some way poetic and someway very gentle and also quite sensitive.
The way he portrays his pictures somehow tells people what kind of a person he is. He gave me a feeling that he has lots of sweetness and sensitivity in him. Giving lots of friendship and sincerity is what i always enjoyed from him. I always look forward to his next upload and of course look forward to his observations after mine. He never fails to see things you hope he saw and even more! Very good friend and a very kind soul!
Hope you will see for urself, what magic he creates in the pichas he takes. :)
Thanks for being a such a good friend Jay.
