  "GOM has done so much for me without even realising. I've never been secure within myself or had the confidence to embrace my femininity but after I came across her stream accidentally I took a long hard look at where I stand as a woman in a town full of conservative people.
  
  I'm now becoming the person I want to be due the inspiration that GOM has provided for me.
  
  She is a master of her art and an icon to so many."

  "A-U-T-H-E-N-T-I-C. This woman personifies the creative, fearless spirit we should all aspire to. An almost mythical beauty, devastating sense of fashion, and staggering talent in front of and behind the camera. Martini's and Flickr have one thing in common - neither is complete without the Olive.
  
  Ok, that last part was corny, but for real, this woman is HOT. :)"

  "When Eleanor Roosevelt said "A woman is like a tea bag- you never know how strong she is until she gets in hot water" she may well have been talking about Green Olive Mama who is without any doubt the best photographer on Flickr."

  "I could say amazing, brave, brilliant or sensual all of which combined could never begin to touch the talent of Green Olive Mama. When I see a recent post I immediately jump to it and let out a squeal of delight EVERY time ;) (so much so that my husband doesn't even have to ask what is going on)
  
  I only wish I had the guts to bare my soul with such grace and openness. You are a constant inspiration whether in art or life itself.
  You are a beautiful person with a beautiful gift, you truly amaze me!"

  "Rochelle is rough.
  She is gritty.
  She has sharp edges.
  Her photos are stark and real and make you see past her (immense) physical beauty and take a look at the person that lies beneath."

  "I am in awe of GreenOliveMama's' works and I am one major fan.
  Her shots are full of "life" and they will immidiately grab your heart, the moment you saw them.
  What a talented lady...
  I have never met her in person, but her photostream makes me feel as if i already know her very very well.
  That is how much her images are strong. They are her = GreenOliveMama.
  I LOVE her !!! (#^ u ^#) and secretly, I'm hoping that there will be a chance to work with her sometime, in the near future. (my top10 dream)
  Keep shooting, lady! YOU, are beautiful.

  "Celà fait un petit moment que je suis la galerie de Rochelle via FlickR, avant même que cette nouvelle galerie soit créée.
  J'aime beaucoup ce que tu fais, la facon dont tu le fais, toujours avec sensualité, finesse, douceur et toujours avec sincérité, je pense. Tu maitrises aussi tes posts-traitements et tu as le don de trouver ceux qui vont bien avec tes portraits.
  Tu oses te dévoiler physiquement, dans tes délires, dans tes émotions, et rien que pour ca, je ne peux que te féliciter.
  Continues à faire vivre mes yeux, continues à m'apprendre, continues à nous gâter (comme tu l'as fait sur ce concours où tu offrais des impressions à tes fans - à quand le prochain !!) et surtout, continue d'être aussi généreuse.
  
  Je te souhaite une bonne année 2010 photographique, personnelle et professionelle.
  
  Un papa à une maman :)

  drshrinker (catching up) says:

  "Obvious creative predisposition aside, Rochelle is so absurdly prolific that the only reasonable explanation I can come up with is that there must actually be several of her - four, five, ten Green Olive Mamas running around, all shooting and processing some of the most compelling self-portrait work I've seen anywhere and posting it under one flickr account. That's gotta be the case, as there's no way a single entity could possibly be producing such a high output of material that is so consistently mindblowing.
  
  Sophisticated, soulful, unpredictable, imaginative, beautiful - all words which aptly describe this supremely gifted artist's inimitable style of visual self-expression. There's simply no one else even remotely like her. A longtime fave and a real treasure here on flickr."

  "What can I possibly say that hasn't been so eloquently expressed here already?
  
  I love this woman. My wife loves this woman. My 9 month-old son, who instantly becomes entranced by the gorgeous visuals of her photos displayed on daddy's TV, seems to love this woman.
  
  She is the artist and muse.
  
  For what she makes beautiful, she knows how to make you ache with love for it."

  "An artist to the fullest degree. Her work tends to all the senses. On one hand you have the drop dead gorgeous model/photographer and if that wasn't enough, you have a very in depth story/theme/scenario to go along with every image to capture your imagination and keep it until her next upload! I'd love to hear from you if you're ever Toronto bound! I'll be the fanatic fan with a camera in one hand and your book in the other! haha Despite all the drama's that comes with your found fame, you've always stayed humble to your viewers and fans and it's why you're more than a flickr celebrity.. but a goddess . :P All the best! Looking forward to every upload!

  "Sadly, there are very few people in this world with the combination of beauty, kindness, creativity and perseverance Green Olive Mama possesses. Her talent draws on a deep pool of joy and pain, and experience that far exceeds her years. Tender and kind, articulate and astute, strong and resilient. Her work is a gift she shares with the world, and the world is richer for it."

  "Des milliers de photos sur internet, sur flickr... Des clichés qui parlent, qui donnent des frissons... Ceux de Rochelle sont à part : certains sont sexy, drôles, d'autres durs parfois, mais voir une telle expression et une telle profondeur dans un regard est rare : joie, amour, complicité, tendresse, désespoir, colère ... Chaque image est une histoire à vivre et à ressentir. Pour toutes ces émotions que tu nous fais vivre Rochelle, et pour tous tes clichés à venir : MERCI !
  
  Olivier."

I cannot thank her enough for being such an inspiration to me. Just through her photos I have been inspired to love myself and my body. So instead of me rambling and saying things that have already been said I will just say this:
  Thank you Rochelle
  It is a real pleasure knowing you (even if it is just through flickr!)"

  "Green Olive Mama is the most talented self portrait artist on Flickr. She can portray every emotion with brilliant precision. She transmits her feelings from herself to the camera and onto the web where everyone can witness a chapter of her life. Whether her portraits show happiness, sadness, sexiness, anger, or whimsy, they will always move you.
  
  Not only is Green Olive Mama a stunningly beautiful woman, she is a true artist in her poses and also a masterful technician behind the camera. Every detail is perfectly thought out. Trust me. She knows what she is doing. Follow this woman's work and you won't be disappointed. I would follow her art anywhere."

It's going to take a while to get the whole story....so, the lucky ones of us that are her friends better hang on for the ride. Thanks for being a friend, JJ"
