I tend to mix my metaphors and even a fool is right twice a day.

I like photographs that evoke positive emotion or are just plain beautiful to look at (magic light and pretty things). One of the most enjoyable features of flickr for me is marking my favorite photos of others .

DottieboBottie says:

"I love the way she sees motherhood and pregnancy. Very real, very honest, very beautiful.

If I ever decide to get knocked up, I want her to shoot me.

:)"

Jessica Jaeger says:

"If I could pick one photographer on Flickr to photograph my family or my maternity shoot (back when I was pregnant), it would be Christy- hands down. She manages to capture the love and familial connection in every shoot she does and has a special talent for capturing the heart & soul. As if that weren't enough, she is also especially talented at capturing the woman- the images are never one dimensional- instead she manages to capture how very multi-faceted we are. Now, if only she would come to Norway... :)"

"I don't have any children of my own, and I'll never be pregnant, so I'd just like to thank Christy and all her subjects for the vicarious experience. Sometimes I feel like I'm peeking through a doorway, but there's nothing but a "come in! come in!" feeling you get from looking at her work. Her photography positively glows."

"The biggest stupidest dumbest thing I've ever done is not getting my maternity session done by Christy. It will haunt me until I die (or until i have another baby). Christy is a wonderful woman with the smile on her face and such a wonderful attitude even though we've only met in person 2 times I feel like i know her and she knows me. She gave my older daughter a small car that she just adores to drive her mini koala's around in."

"Not only is Christy a great photographer, she is also an expert in hotel bathtub capacity. Ask her about it sometime. ;)"

Linda's Many Muses says:

"Christy sees beauty wherever she goes or perhaps she sews beauty in whatever she sees. Through Christy's uncanny eye we glimpse the divine feminine, the nurturing goddess, the archetypal mother figure in all her rounded splendor, the lover, the giver, the eternal in all of us. She shows us real women at every stage of their real lives and she does so with sensitivity, grace and great natural skill."

Norby says:

"Photography (for me) is all about celebrating the wonders of life that we see all around us, whether it is the people in it, places we go, or just a mood that strikes us. Christy's photographs capture and celebrate the fleeting transition surrounding the entry of a new life into the world, both before and after. We are proud and grateful to have had her with us before and after the birth of our second child.
