A dreamer is one who can only find his way by moonlight, and his punishment is that he sees the dawn before the rest of the world. - Oscar Fingal Wilde
A photograph is a secret about a secret. The more it tells you the less you know.
Diane Arbus
the question is not what you look at, but what you see.
-thoreau
And if a day goes by without my doing something related to photography, it's as though I've neglected something essential to my existence, as though I had forgotten to wake up. I know that the accident of my being a photographer has made my life possible.
-richard avedon 1970
Dream lofty dreams.
And as you dream, so shall you become.
-james allen
If a photographer cares
about the people before the lens
and is compassionate, much is given.
It is the photographer, not the camera,
that is the instrument.

Looking for beauty? Well, you've gone to the right place. :) She is such a wonderful photographer. Martha has some of the most creative work I've seen on flickr. What a fantastic photostream you have, my friend. Such beautiful concepts, and your use of colour and lighting is stunning. I can't even to say how much you have inspired me! There are not words to describe how talented you are at photography! ^-^ I continue to look forward to seeing your latest uploads. Thank you for sharing your work with us all. You're a true inspiration! I wish you the best, C.
Read lessMartha is one of my favourite flickr inspirations and I love all her work. I love her vintage, fairytale style, and she is such a sweet person too!
Martha - Your photography speaks for itself. It's all just so beautiful - I love looking at things through your eyes. Perhaps your spirit is most important - you are the best cheerleader a gal could have! You are just one cool chick with amazing talents.....big MWAH!
Martha hardly needs another testimonial as evidenced by the long list here. But suffice it to say, her work has a dream-like quality that keeps me inspired.
Martha's work is timeless and soulful. Her images leave me in awe. She is an inspiration to myself as well as many other photographers here on flickr.
Everyone has said everything I want to say about Martha’s work, I have been watching it develop over the last couple of years and I can say that it only gets better each time I view her photo -stream
Martha is an amazing photographer with a eye for detail!!! She is a inspiration!!! Thank you for sharing your wonderful work!!!
Martha is a true talent.. her work never ever ceases to amaze and inspire me.. I absolutely love to just go through her work and I get lost in the details and imagery that she presents.. She is simply put.. AMAZING...
martha's work isn't vintage inspired: it is truly vintage. it comes from a heart that is out of time - a kinder, gentler, more decent time. martha looks, sees, honors her subjects in a way that few photographers do...so much of us want to get something from our subjects...something beautiful, something wonderful...m… Read more
martha's work isn't vintage inspired: it is truly vintage. it comes from a heart that is out of time - a kinder, gentler, more decent time. martha looks, sees, honors her subjects in a way that few photographers do...so much of us want to get something from our subjects...something beautiful, something wonderful...martha wants to give something to them. as i peruse martha's stream, i don't just feel like i'm escaping the rat race, i imagine that i've gotten off the swing on the porch of my farmhouse, set down my homemade lemonade, and am looking through a family album...she is an artist to her core, and i am honored to know her live and call her friend.

I am not here to talk about Martha's photography because it speaks for itself.

And of course, Keri said it before, How could you possibly doubt your talent with testimonials from some of the Biggest in the Business! No, I am here to attest to her personality. Martha, you are one of the kindest people I know here in Flickerland, You have been an inspiration from the start. I believe I met you through Totally Textures, thanks to David's invitation. I remember being incredibly surprised and honored when you made me a contact/friend, before I even dreamed about asking. Since then, I have been continually blessed through your kind words and funny remarks. Honestly, you've made my day more than once. I would be honored to meet you some day. I should stop now, before I start writing a book. Martha I thank you for the kindness you have shown me and all the people here. May God richly bless you and your family -Jason

I love each and every one of the photos that Martha posts... they are all so beautiful and they each portray something different.

Thank you so much for letting me be apart of your journey!! I can't wait to see what you'll come up with next.

Martha's photos truly are poetry, and music. There is so much light, and life and childhood spirit embodied in her images that sometimes, after viewing her stream, my heart is so full that I feel like soaring. There are many photographers who are technically good, but very few who take pictures that express what the world really looks like through their eyes. If you take any time at all to study Martha's images you can see her vision, her artistry, her passion for life in each and every one. No doubt about it - she's one to watch. We might know her as 'iseethemoon', but I"m pretty sure that she's really a fast rising star. Martha - thank you for giving me the opportunity to watch you shine.

Once upon a time there was Martha. She lived in a world filled with sweet cherubim who's daily discoveries, expressions, and interactions she most capably painted for all of Flickrville to enjoy.

Once upon a time there was Martha. She lived in a world filled with sweet cherubim who's daily discoveries, expressions, and interactions she most capably painted for all of Flickrville to enjoy. All of the townsfolk agreed that there must be a little magic dust interwoven into each image rendered by Martha's hand, for upon viewing them, they could not help but feel that they would indeed live happily ever after. The End.

So, it's late and I realized I hadn't written testimonials for some of my fav. photographers. I have to correct that right now. Martha is a very inspiring artist. An image of hers will always bring a smile to your face. The way she captures children really really stands out from others work. You know you have a one of a kind image if it's one that Martha has created. I also love her lively personality that radiates from the words she writes. And I will also add that the thing that I most admire about Martha is that she seems to be so kind and that goes a long way in my book.

Crazy fox Martha, sorry it took a while, but here I am. Martha has been such a Flickr friend to me from the start, I really enjoy getting to know her better through our emails. I find her such a sweetheart! I admire Martha for her timeless photographs that are so elegant always, so precious and fine. She thinks through every detail. Martha give me a bit of your perfectionism : ) I really hope that one day we will run around our children together ‘like crazy mad foxes’ - either in Europe or in the usa. Thanks for your Flickr-friendship Martha, and will you please post more?

Everybody wants to see through the eyes of a child just one more time. Why? Because the feelings are pure and so deep and everything appears in a new light, in a new point of view. Each photo of Martha's photostream are capturing such a moment so close that you can feel the ambience and the emotions by looking at. I am already a big fan of her high quality photography and of course her kids. I wish you the best for your future. Take care. Many kisses.
