    "Shae,

    You seem to be one of the most creative people alive. Seriously, even if you don't notice so, every picture of yours has a meaning, a beautiful meaning in it. You always have the best natural light on earth, it's gorgeous and you manage to capture it so well it's weird. Also, the editing in your pictures is always super nice, wether it is something really simple or not. But you are, as well, such a nice person, you're so cool seriously, it's so awesome to have you as a flickr friend and your work is just amazing! Don't you dare stop taking those beautiful pictures of yours!

    "Shae,

    Your stream is definitely one of my favorites. I remember the first time I saw it, and I was amazed by all those butterfly photos. :) The lighting and colors in each shot are spot-on, and I love how almost every photo you take is cheerful and creative. You have so many wonderful ideas in your head, and I know that you put a lot of effort into your 365, even if you don't believe it sometimes. :)

    Thanks for being a great flickr friend, and keep up the great work!

    I love her ideas for her photography and I should admit she has the skill of editing picture.
    Her pictures take control my emotion each time I see them; inspired, jealous, amazed, and happy.

    Shattered Infinity says:

    "Shae.

    Where to start? When I first found your stream, I didn't immediately start commenting on everything, because I was in such awe of you and your creativity with photos. Eventually (probably after favoriting too many of your photos) I suppose I found the courage to timidly let you know how incredible your photos were. We're more like friends now, but I still have the same bit of reverence inside for the way you capture light, the brilliant colors that splash across every photo on your stream, your extreme originality and creativity that shows in all your work, and the soft beauty of your gorgeous personality.

    I just wanted to let you know that you inspire me every time I look through your stream, and I look forward to seeing a new photo from you everyday. You absolutely rock."

    "dearest shae,
    i still remember the first day i found your stream. it was a really long time ago, 6 months or so. i was new to flickr and finding your stream was like finding a rare, shiny gem among really boring rocks. i remember reading about your move and about how sad you were and how sad it made me. i looked back at that photo today and to see how far you've come since then... it's amazing. i remember reading all of your descriptions and getting to know you. slowly, over time, you've become one of my closest flickr contacts. our 365 days project that we both decided to do makes me happy whenever i think that i have my darling shae on this challenging, 'i-love-photography-a-little-too-much' road with me. each and every picture of yours makes me sit back in my chair and just stare at the photo, taking in every amazing aspect of it, trying to figure out what you were thinking or what's going on, or really just trying to decipher it. your photos make me think, and i love that. you're an amazing, inspirational person. your photos blow my mind. every single one of your delicate poses is fascinating. the way you play with the light is perfect. whenever i look at your beautiful print on my wall, i smile. i love having a little piece of shae on the wall of my room. i don't care if that sounds creepy because it's true. the note that came with the print makes me smile when i read it. as much as i cherish every print and letter from someone on flickr that i've received, yours is probably my favorite because when people ask who sent it to me, i can say, "my friend shae," and smile and mean it. i love it. you're almost like my sister. i can tell you anything. i love you too much to describe.
    oh and for anyone who doesn't know this amazing girl, you're going to want to. she's an extremely, extremely talented photographer and an amazing person. you'll love her as much i do, which is a lot.
    thank you for being an amazing person. thank you for doing this 365 with me. thank you for being you.
    i love you dear :]
    ♥ charlotte
    ps. oh my god this took me forever to write. i think i edited it like 90 times. jezzuzz i'm a strange child. can't even write a testimonial for someone."

    The moment i saw her photographs i felt like woah. This girl is freaking awesome. Few minutes after browsing through her beautiful stream and favouriting + commenting on her work, i felt the need to write her a testimonial.

    Her work is simply amazing. One of my top favourite photographers on Flickr. Which is why i'm writing her a testimonial - which i don't do often. :)

    Anyway, i can't wait to see more photos from you. And i want to let you know that you're a terrific photographer! :)
