    "You invest exuberant amounts of principle and soundness into creativity and impulse.
    You are so rational in such irrational ways, and that's why I am in love with the soul and energy the Lord has graced you with.

    I see Him in You."

    ""Wow, this is my first Testimonial ever. I don't know how to wirte something like this..
    Just gonna wirte down what I think, ok.
    I admire Kelly for her passion in erverything she shows us. In her photos and also in her beautiful wirting on her blog. She has the special talent to tell stories, feelings through her photos.
    Everytime I see a new photo on her stream or a text on her blog, I'm so happy. That sounds awkward but it's the truth because her photos and her texts make me think about who I am and what I'm supposed to do.
    Now I'm beginning to talk about me, so I just wanted to tank you Kelly for doing what you do. Keep goning - it's great!""

    "Kelly is a fantastic photographer. Her self portraits show so much innocence, vulnerability, and a thousand other emotions. Her landscape self portraits are my absolute favorite, because she is able to make her surroundings look so incredible. Good luck on your future work girly! I know it'll be good."

    "Heyyyyyyyyyyyyy Kelly!

    I think that your photos are quite awesome. :)
    and I think they are awesome because you let them be honest, and because you are a tones and editing and bokeh QUEEN.

    I think that you yourself are also quite awesome.
    For some of the same reasons. And also because you actually take the time to comment others photos, despite how busy we all know you are! So thank you so much for being an INCREDIBLE contact, a BEAUTIFUL girl, and a INSPIRING photographer! :D"

I am so blessed to have you as a contact here on flickr. Every time I see a new photo of yours I sit there and stare at it, not because it's just nice to look at but because the meaning behind it is far greater. Your love for the Lord is so evident through your pictures and it evokes an even deeper passion behind your work. I hope you always continue to take pictures because you are so very talented. You are amazing, don't let anyone ever tell you otherwise :)"

    "I'll have to agree with everyone else. KELLY IS AMAZING. It is simple to see if you stop and stare at her photos. She is probably my biggest inspiration. Photo wise and also in faith. Talent is an understatment with Kelly's gift! Such beautiful photos ! Yet there is something more than just beautiful. They all have meaning. And that is probably the most important thing to portray in photography. And of course to get great bokeh's and focus but Kelly has already gotten that down pat ;D.

    Amazing Kelly, hopefully you love photopraphy through out your whole life!"

Not only that, but all of her photos evoke a strong intensity and emotion that make you fall in love with her photography. It's hard to put how great she is into words, so just take a look at her photos yourself and let the pictures speak for themselves, because they're amazing and inspiring. NEVER STOP, KELLY. =)"

    Her photos always has great tones, great light and awesome bokeh. But most important: she has the best concepts. It blows me away everytime. Every photo is well thought out and beautifully done.Her selfportraits really express so much emotion, it's incredible.
    And, she writes beautifully as well. All her stories and her poems, they're all so great. And when she uses her writings in combination with her photos, it takes my breath away. Literally.

    Kelly, keep up the good work! I hope I will enjoy a lot more of your photos and writings in the future!"

I just am continuously impressed and envious of her ability to never falter with her shots. I can feel the passion, emotion, and sincerity in her photos which is rare to come upon, and above all I am able to relate to her through her photos which I think is the goal of an artist. Effortless and astounding, Kelly is an incredible photographer."

    "Golly. Where to start...

    well, for one thing, Kelly has one of those photostreams where you anxiously await for her to upload a 365 photo. So it's pretty much the highlight of my "flickr day" when she uploads something.

    also, she has an eye for noticing the little details and turning them into extraordinary photos. Something that someone could pass by every day, she turns into a masterpiece through her photography.

    I could go raving on and on about her photos, but you'll just have to check them out for yourself. Because they rock.
