"Kristy is just AMAZING!!
She is probably one of the most talented people I've ever come across. If she isn't knitting she is snapping pictures and taking care of her beautiful boys. They are so lucky to have you as their mama!! I found Kristy after seeing one of her baby hats in a photo.... and then I found out what an incredible photographer she is! WOW! Her photos always draw me in by their beauty and creativity. Her stream is so colorful and brilliant, I just can't help faving almost all of her pics.
Thank you so much for sharing your talent with all of us! You are an inspiration to me and everyone here. Stay strong Kristy, I'm always here for you :0)"8th April, 2009

"I adore the photos which are in swifferkins photostream. She captures the beauty in everything she photographs. She has a kind and generous comment for anyone else's work.
The photos of her son are stunning and have made me want to find out how she captures the wonder and joy on his face.
Swifferkins is a real inspiration to the flickr community and I always keep a lookout for her newest postings."21st July, 2007
