  "woo I'm your 50th testimonial!
  Frankly, i'm not even shocked at all that you have 50 testimonials.
  This girl is...exceptional. She is so nice and talented and just beautiful.
  I've gotten to know her a little and she just shines. It's the truth. :)
  There's not much more to say without sounding even more lame. :)
  But Vivien, you ROCK!"

  "when I think of your photos, I think color. it's like you carry a rainbow around with you and just splash it onto to whatever your photographing.. because sooo many of your pictures have the most vibrant and beautiful colors in them!
  
  and, you're like completely brilliant and creative.
  you have one of those streams that I visit every day and just sit and stare at your pictures and try to come up with some amazing and profound thing to say about them, and i'm always completely at a loss for words. nothing I could ever say would match how incredible your photos are."

  "This testimonial should've been written aaaages ago.
  
  Vivien! She is incredible. Every one of her photos is unique and beautiful, and I could write a testimonial about each individual one! XD I only just found out how young she is, and now I'm even more impressed. Vivien is unbelievably talented and creative. It's really difficult to put into words the beauty of her photography, so I think you should just go check out her photostream for yourself. I am always in awe of what she does, and I always get happy when I see she's uploaded something new, because I know I'll instantly love it. Seriously, she is one of the best photographers on Flickr, and a huge inspiration for me and countless other photographers.
  
  Vivien, you are extraordinary with your photography, and you are a wonderful, kind Flickr friend. I hope you never stop taking pictures!"

There is just something about her personality, her spirit, her style... you just know that she's a wonderful person who positively affects everyone around her.
  
  Thank you for doing what you do. Every new photo is a gift. I look forward to many, many more.

  "It is about time I write this little missy a testimonial!
  I first fell in love with vivien when I saw her day 63 photo.
  i loved it so much I asked her if I could feature it on my myspace profile.
  I began following her stream everyday and wow...she has never failed to blow me away.
  
  Her ideas are unique and they'll put a smile on your face. The concepts she comes up with are things that we can all relate to. She's an amazing, inspiring photographer. Never doubt that.
  
  But not only is this precious little child a great photographer, she's such a sweet friend as well. She's a warmhearted, silly, beautiful individual. You won't be able to resist her adorableness. You'll know what I'm talking about her when you add her as a contact :)
  
  Vivi, just wanted to say that I'm blessed for having met you on here, and you got a whole lot of good things coming your way :) keep working hard and keep inspiring us with your wonderful photos. I love you. God bless.:)"

  "Sorry if this just turns out creepy (I don't think I'm very good with testimonials)
  I stalk your photostream. hahaha, I guess that's a good thing, considering how I would be OVERJOYED to have someone stalk my photostream! Anyway, so one day (which happened to be today), I was stalking your photostream (ehehehe!) and in one of them, you mentioned your age.
  I was like... O_O and checked the date. I was so shocked to realize you were around my age! I thought you were 15 or 16 since you're so mature! I'm so jealous of your talent; your photostream is absolutely AMAZING!
  That one day you commented on one of MY photos...well I was like OHHH MY FREAKING... -spaz- since you're like an idol (not an idol...just someone I look up to) and I never imagined that someone with talent like YOU would comment on one of my merrhh pics. XD
  Since the first day you uploaded pictures, you've been an amazing photographer. I lovelovelove your ideas. :)
  Don't stop taking pictures! Or a mass amount of people including me would kill you! Okay, not really, that just sounds creepy. But you get it. Keep being amazing, pleasee!"

  "Upon stumbling on Vivien's stream, I remember thinking how amazing and talented she was, and then I found out she was only 13! Her photos show that being young isn't an excuse to consider yourself okay, but amazing for your age. She's got more talent that some people on flickr in college studying photography. Overall, she's just amazing."

  "So. This is my first Testimonial.
  I'm not sure what to say that hasn't already been said.
  Hm. Well, i just looked through near proximity's photostream
  and I can't believe how creative she is!
  Her photos are filled with color and cuteness.
  She has a lot talent for someone in only the 8th grade,
  keep doing your thing. Can't wait to see your next 232 pictures. (Yes i counted how many more you have to take) :]
  
  much love, Sahira :]"

  "Viviennnn! wow.. so I pretty much have been contacts with you since you first started flickr, and let me say, you've improved loads! I mean, I've probably told you once or twice on your comments already but I still can't believe it. It was weird cause one day you just randomly had amazing photos, and it's been that way ever since. It surprised me! haha. You're great and your ideas are very creative. Keep it up & keep inspiring others, including me :)"

  Philerooski says:

  "Hmm, where to start... Well not gonna lie, this is my first time writing a testimonial, so sorry if it's too corny for Flickr ;D
  
  I found Vivien's stream flicking (is that why it's called Flickr?) through a teen photographer group. I guess her photo stood out enough for me to check out her whole stream, and wow was I impressed. I'm not usually a fan of anything other than landscape shots, so you know you can enjoy her stream no matter what kind of photography you like. Also Vivien is one of the most creative people I know, and I'm not just saying that to be nice either, I really mean it. Every single one of her photos is unique and interesting. I have no idea how she just pulls all these amazing ideas out of her head day after day.
  
  Other than being a fantastical photographer, Vivien takes the time to comment pretty much every one of my photos, which I think is just ridiculous, hehe. I know from experience how much work it would take to comment every one of your hundreds of contacts photos, or maybe I'm just special ;-) ha. They're always "human" comments too. Not those robot comments I get from that one guy in Mongolia, who seems to think that every one of my shots is a "Nice shot".
  
  Keep up the juicilicious work Vivien! (I made that word up because I couldn't think of a word in English that could describe enough how amazing you are ;-)"

  she was one of my first flickr contacts, and one of the first streams i looked at,
  and it amazed me.
  She is one RADICAL photograher, to say the least.
  She is sooososo sweet with everything she says (comments), and she always makes me smile. BIG :D
  And her pictures... are AWE-DEFYING.
  Well, I could probably say alooooooot more but I guess this is long enough for a testimonial. (:
  BOTTOMLINE.
  Vivien + Photography = PERFECT. :D"

It's just, WOW. I realized how greater your photos are becoming, getting better and better everyday since I added you as a contact. There's a difference when I click on a daily photo compared to looking at the stream as a whole. There's always something different on each upload from you and please don't stop there. Keep going and going and going. (:"

  You're so nice and you really do take amazing photos. And, and, AND I am so happy you got your new lens so you could take new ones =)
