The word "nonpareil" zips to mind. As does the hackneyed "genius." Neither of which could possibly be more fitting. Nor would they sufficiently do this proper miracle of an imagemaker justice. Nat is, straight-up, one of the precious few round these parts - or anywhere, really - whose work possesses the power to be able to goad me into picking up a camera and pressing on with my own work even when it's the very last thing I feel that I am inclined or qualified to do. That's inspiration for ya... and her imagination and imagery are a wellspring. An extremely important artistic presence in my life. I'm so very, very grateful to ever have discovered her.

Miss Aniela is obviously a huge inspiration to a massive chunk of the flickr community, including myself. Not only does she come up with beautiful, unique images again and again, she also provides amazing workshops and advice to developing photographers all around the globe. Finding a talented, passionate artist is one thing. Discovering, alongside this, a wonderful lady who is willing to help others improve their own work is another entirely. Massive thanks Nat! Take care xx

Miss Aniela is one of my great inspirations on flickr. One of the most wonderful things about her artistry is her willingness to experiment.

Miss Aniela is one of my great inspirations on flickr. One of the most wonderful things about her artistry is her willingness to experiment. She is constantly evolving and dabbling in different styles, never falling back on tired cliches or repeating what she knows will be popular. Not only is she an excellent photographer, but also a fantastic mentor to any up and coming self-portrait photographer. Her willingness to give insight into the business as well as express her thoughts and concepts in such a thought-provoking manner make her a fabulous teacher as well as an artist. She is an inspiration to female self-portrait artists everywhere. I am so grateful to have stumbled across her :)

I have a special place in my heart for Natalie. Her images are among the first I saw on Flickr, and they moved me so much that they inspired me to get into self portrait photography myself.

I have a special place in my heart for Natalie. Her images are among the first I saw on Flickr, and they moved me so much that they inspired me to get into self portrait photography myself. She is still a constant flow of magic and inspiration, and I love coming back to her stream again and again to immerse myself into this special, beautiful and strange world of hers. Apart from being already a very well-known artist, Natalie is also a lovely person I had the great pleasure of meeting. I can only say one thing to everyone: You are observing artistic greatness developing before your very eyes. Art history is being written on this very stream. Pay attention.

I was introduced to the photographic art of Miss Aniela through the pages of American Photo a short while ago, and her work has introduced me to a new world of images. Her humor and whimsy, combined with a deep well of meaning in these images, produce a deep resonance that is rarely equaled on these pages. Thank you, … Read more

I decided to write this great woman a testimonial once I found that often I think of some of her photos when I am composing an image.

I decided to write this great woman a testimonial once I found that often I think of some of her photos when I am composing an image. Miss Aniela's work permeates almost all aspects of female portraiture - classic, modern, stylish, glamor, humorous, fine art, artistic nude etc. An astonishing diversity which also betrays her broad knowledge of art. It is impossible if you are acquainted with her work not to be influenced by it in some way. The grandeur of her images separates her in a category of her own here on flickr. This lady will have a great future

There's really nothing else I can add to praise Miss Aniela and her work that has not already been said before me but I wanted to leave a testimonial anyway to show my love and support for her and her art!

There's really nothing else I can add to praise Miss Aniela and her work that has not already been said before me but I wanted to leave a testimonial anyway to show my love and support for her and her art! I've had the privilege of meeting her and the first thing that surprised me was how shy and sensitive she was. Miss Aniela truly is a second identity for this lady and I must say, both are equally brilliant in their own right. At the end of the day, all I can say is, there's a reason she's one of the most successful artists on flickr and if you're reading this, you know it too.

As arty below says, words (well certainly not mine anyway!) couldn't do Miss A's work justice.

As arty below says, words (well certainly not mine anyway!) couldn't do Miss A's work justice. I could talk for pages about how much I enjoy her work but all I will say now is; whenever I visit her page I find myself getting that excited feeling you get when you walk downstairs at christmas time wondering what little wrapped parcels of joy are waiting for you. To me, every new picture of Miss A's is a little parcel of joy...with a little less unwrapping :)

My words here could never do justice to how highly I value Natalie's art and opinions. The works themselves are superficially beautiful and evocative, but are also by turns passionate, thought-provoking and even infuriating.

My words here could never do justice to how highly I value Natalie's art and opinions. The works themselves are superficially beautiful and evocative, but are also by turns passionate, thought-provoking and even infuriating. My love affair with Miss Aniela's photos is a habit I cannot kick; an addictive drug creating supreme highs and devastating withdrawal symptoms. I can't imagine Flickr without her. If she didn't exist, God Himself would invent her. I would advise anyone with an appreciation of the finer things in life to spend considerable time working through the pictures chronologically, but beware: you could drown in this stream.

When I first came to flickr almost a year ago, the first stream that made me say, "wow!" was Miss Anielas. When I started taking photography classes, I showed my professor her clones and demanded he show me how to do it!

When I first came to flickr almost a year ago, the first stream that made me say, "wow!" was Miss Anielas. When I started taking photography classes, I showed my professor her clones and demanded he show me how to do it! Her stream is always interesting, always thought provoking, always pleasing to the eyes and oh so inspiring!! There is no one else on flickr who has developed and progressed like she has...she is a force to be reckoned with. On top of all her unbelievable talent and her exquisite taste and artistic sensibilities, she is an absolute sweetheart. Easy to talk to, generous and warm at heart. Im thrilled to have the pleasure of her company here on flickr and look forward to so much more great work to come! xo

Miss Aniela is a true artist. I can't hope to describe her work and why it is so great, her many fans and successes are testimonial to how great her work is.

Miss Aniela is a true artist. I can't hope to describe her work and why it is so great, her many fans and successes are testimonial to how great her work is. I can only tell how her work has influenced me. She is innovative, endlessly creative, technically adventurous, fiercely intelligent, wonderfully opinionated, beautiful inside and out and also kind and generous. She is someone who knows her art and her motives inside out. I think everything she does in her art has been thought about deeply and questioned intensely by herself before anyone on flickr gets to work on it. This is what makes it so meaningful for me. I love this woman's work and the the intillectual stimulation I get from it (and from her) and I can't wait to see her conquer the art world ! Mwah - go miss A ! I will always be one of your most ardent fans !

Miss Aniela... She's one of the most popular artists here at flickr and that's well deserved. I don't know anybody else who has a similar *style* or a similar kind of post-processing. It's really interesting to look at her work, her ideas are wonderful and she knows how to turn them into these perfect photos. Natalie… Read more

Miss Aniela... She's one of the most popular artists here at flickr and that's well deserved. I don't know anybody else who has a similar *style* or a similar kind of post-processing. It's really interesting to look at her work, her ideas are wonderful and she knows how to turn them into these perfect photos. Natalie is also a really kind an supportive person and always there if somebody needs her help. She is able to attract attention to important issues and I appreciate it she does that so often. I think she's a huge inspiration and help to every female self-portrait artist. Thank you!

I have been an admirer of Miss Aniela's art for some time now and nothing seems to get boring with her work. With every upload she shows amazing talents from capturing to post processing.

I have been an admirer of Miss Aniela's art for some time now and nothing seems to get boring with her work. With every upload she shows amazing talents from capturing to post processing. What I love most is that every piece seems to communicate some kind of issue or theme, they aren’t just photos intended for no purpose they are artworks with deep meaning. She has completely changed my perspective on 'digital art' and has shown me that you can take any idea and turn it into exactly what you want it to be. Natalie, I can see you becoming a very notable artist of this century, your work is truly inspiring and I wish you all the luck in the world!

"Miss Aniela" you really don't stop to surprise, astonish and inspire me with each and every of your posts. Your images are really artistic creations and require so many preparation, nevertheless they look spontaneous. Thank you for sharing your gems and for your continuous inspiration.

"Miss Aniela" you really don't stop to surprise, astonish and inspire me with each and every of your posts. Your images are really artistic creations and require so many preparation, nevertheless they look spontaneous. Thank you for sharing your gems and for your continuous inspiration. Keep up the wonderful work, I'm glad to call you a flickr~friend.

Aniela, as every Big Personality of this word, attracts us becouse she posess a secret. It is something so unusual, magical and special, that we can't resist not to come closer, take a look at wonders she creates, and gasp in awe.

Aniela, as every Big Personality of this word, attracts us becouse she posess a secret. It is something so unusual, magical and special, that we can't resist not to come closer, take a look at wonders she creates, and gasp in awe. Her creations balance on the edge of reality and fable - a tale, that is keepin us in trance, to which we come back to take a sneak pick again, in which we would love to perform on our own. What I see in Aniela is this unstoppable need of being true to herself, being fair for her friends, being honest to her believes, being innovative in her art. I think that not many people managed to conect stunning, beautiful and brave personality with art they make, and build not only a wonderful photo stream, but something I would dare to call an Institution of Miss Aniela. She became and Icon in such a short period of time in here and she won hearts and respect of milions. But what I admire and love mostly about Miss Aniela is the way she is never satisfied with ordynary and plane - she seeks inspiration, she makes steps forward each time we say " it's your best one", she experiments, she tryes, she wants and she is achieving. I believe she will reach the stars, that we will keep on loving her for who she is and what she does, and I believe she is one of my greatest sources of inspiration in whole world.

Can i say anything someone hasn't already expressed, no, everyone i know feels the same about her amazing work, so expressive and open such raw emotion expressed in such a delicate way.

What to say about Miss Aniela.....hmmm well my problem is coming up with something different then the last hundred people. :-) She is probably in the top 2 of my favorite self portrait artists. Her work, not only comes with an intriguingly artistic portrait, but a witty diologue to accompany it. Her grasp of the English language is phenomenal, and her pictures have inspired some of my best works. I always find myself rushing away to find a dictionary so I can be part of the conversations on her stream, and I am always looking out for her latest and greatest. If you have not marked Miss A as a contact, your crazy . So stop what your doing, go to her icon and click, "add as contact".

As a photographer, a genius. You can tell by the way she lights the image, by the details, by the attention to colors and composition, always, always perfect. As a model, gorgeous. She had the courage to dare, and the results are stunning portraits of her. Clothed or naked, she's always wonderful . As a person, magnifi… Read more

Her art keeps surprising me and her style is very recognizable, though never boring as images never seem alike. The comments and tags are always funny to read and I love the way you still take the time to reply on the comments you receive. Must be a full-time job nowadays ;-) Thanks for sharing and congrats to you on the success you have right now, it is well deserved!
