There was one thing Haggis Chick never told me when I put her on the ferris wheel. You would think someone with a fear of heights would tell the operator before I strapped her in. She didn't. She was being filmed as part of a reality show for people confronting their fears. I strapped in her and the cameraman next to her, and sent her on their way. When they reached the top, I heard a scream, but not a scream of fear. There was a giggle and an ovation and when they came back down, I realized they looked different. They had swapped clothes! This is how she confronted her fear, and after she got off we went out for some coffee and talked about the things that inspire her photography, how we each use technology to create our images and about how disgusting haggis actually is. Also found out she has a fear of coffee, so after one cup of coffee, I was wearing some really awesome high heels, a very soft cashmere camisole and a revealing mini skirt. I'm glad I shaved that day.

A little over a year ago, I saw a photo by Haggis Chick on Explore, and I made her one of my first contacts on flickr. I’ve never regretted adding her since she is a woman who never fails to impress. She characterizes all her photos with bawdy humour and plucky dialogue. She handles all her comments with cheekiness, thoughtfulness, and aplomb. She shares my birthday, so that immediately makes her awesome. And she is frigging amazing with a camera. I have watched this woman strive to achieve various photographic techniques in her self-portraits and master them with sexy Haggis Chick style. Perhaps what is even more impressive is her ability to apply these techniques with incredible effectiveness to her portraits of friends and family and landscapes as well. With every upload, she shows her drive and determination to better her photography, and I am continually awed by the strides she makes in her work. I wonder what my year of flickr would have been the like without this woman around. Probably duller. I don’t like to think about it. After all, Haggis Chick is pretty fantastic.

Haggis is the coolest chick you'll meet on flickr! Witty, spunky, funny, clever, FUN and yet down to earth and warm hearted.

One of the most influential female artists for me on flickr. And once you exchange some words with her it becomes clear she is smart, funny and down to earth person. You have my admiration and thank you for the motivating words

Haggis chick has an exceptional mind - make no mistake about that! Great pictures, great sense of composition and lighting, and very good at creating different looks.

My dear Haggis has a gift of projecting sensuality, passion and art that leaves us all her admirers with the opened mouth.. She has the gift of looking for the exact point to make ourselves to feel herphotos beyond the ocular sense...Apart of everything she is a person incredibly, is a human precious human being who we have (her friends) the luxury of sharing.... I want to say that for me it is a pleasure to be able to contemplate you the whole art of your photos and also some words occasionally .. thank you for existing... with luv....Sara!!! God Bless you....

Haggis Chick is one of the very first photographers I ever added as a contact. I was impressed with her creative ideas for photos, especially her self-portraits, as anyone who has tried to shoot them consistently knows; it’s hard to come up with new ideas. Haggis Chick doesn’t seem to have this problem, and whether it’s her, or her alter ego, Freda, who occupies the photo, I’m distinctly aware of a personality who likes to play, and make trouble. Both are qualities I admire, and even try to emulate with my own photos, and not many photographers do that for me. Plus she would make a great pub buddy. We’d tear the place up!

haggis chick is one of those artists that will make you go wow. her skills as a photographer are immense. her images are all well thought out and executed beautifully. her dedication to photography is obvious. she has a voracious appetite to learn and entertain. from her peachy docky to her alter egos, her quick wit can be disarming. but her true passion is her family. a wonderful mum, she will lift you up telling you about her two beautiful children. although sometimes referred to as the little monsters, they are at the core of her heart. if enjoy great photography and like to feel a part of it all, haggis is on your menu.

It is time for me to write this testimonial. I have been away for a week, and as I turn to Joanne's stream, I see talent. Fresh, immense, awesome talent. She is capable of throwing power into self portraits that comes to me only fleetingly. Even more, Joanne create portraits of others with unwielding, raw emotion. Asides from this, she is a tower of support, with words of wit and humour to catch you just when you are not looking. Watch out for Joanne, for you are certain to be inspired. Haggis Chick, you rock our world on Flickr. Thank you!

Self portraiture, Undrestanding, Longing, Sharing, Beauty, Pain, Pleasure, and I could go on (and on...) "this world was never meant (excuse me, yes it was!) for someone as beautiful as you" HAGGIS is a Delight : ) p.s IRVING STONE'S book about VINCENT is called LUST FOR LIFE. IGGY POP stole the Title lol : )

If Joanne were a party dip, I'd double dip her. She defines the quintessence of sass and is unswervingly clever not only in her work but in her words. ("work" is the part where she gets naked in front of the camera and yells at the kids to stay out of the way) she is honest and loyal to her tribe , sincere and provocative in her commentary and kind to strangers, even when they're spiteful to her. Just don't leave her alone with your girlfriend.... she's a veritable magpie. ;) oh, and she's got a cute accent.
