Testimonials

your photos move me. I am gripped by them. and I am enchanted by their grasp.

November 26, 2010

I love you. So Much. Even if you weren't bewildering at this photography thing. Which is immensly absurd and incredibly outlandish and ludacris because it is a fact that you are superb at this. You are awe-inspiring in everything you do.

I had to edit this, Allie. Even though I enjoyed being your 7th testimonial. But life goes on, haha. I have no idea how I'm going to do this, because you just always leave me completely and utterly speechless. I wish I could tell you how much you inspire me...you have such a way with words and your faith in God is j… Read more

I have no idea how I'm going to do this, because you just always leave me completely and utterly speechless. I wish I could tell you how much you inspire me...you have such a way with words and your faith in God is just...wow. I wish I could be more like you. And I know you hate it when people say that, but honestly....your emotion and EVERYTHING are just incredible. I love you so much Allie.

I am completely unsure about why it has taken me this long to write Allie a testimonial. Maybe it's because I fear that my words are much too insignificant compared to her photos and her writing, and just her, as a person. She is fabulous. I owe her so much.

I am completely unsure about why it has taken me this long to write Allie a testimonial. Maybe it's because I fear that my words are much too insignificant compared to her photos and her writing, and just her, as a person. She is fabulous. I owe her so much. She was one of the first people to discover me, even though my pictures were crap. She is the sweetest person on Flickr, probably. She is so blessed and has so many great friends. Allie's photos make you feel so much, any emotion. She has unbelievable talent. I don't know how she can say "I don't like this picture." on any of her pictures, because every one of them is completely breath taking. I love her stream so very much. I love Allie so very much. She has become one of my best friends, and I'm so happy and blessed to know her.

Allie is amazing. The way she photographs raw emotion never ceases to awe me.

Allie is amazing. The way she photographs raw emotion never ceases to awe me. I feel things with her pictures, I feel her frustration, the way she sees beauty, the way she loves her brothers and mom, the way she sees herself. And I love it. How exposing and sharing they are, how they shed light on myself, too, because her photos are universal, and she is honest. And I think she is a darling human being. Getting to know her has been one of the best parts of my summer.

Allie. There is so much to say about this lovely girl. She has the biggest heart. She is so accepting and loving and beautiful. She is hilarious. Without even trying. Her photos are absolutely stunning. For one she is beautiful, and her tones and her flares and glares and everything else just makes every photo perfection. She is an amazing writer, she really should write a book! I'm so lucky to be able to call her my friend. I love her to death and I hope one day she realizes how amazing she is and how much she has touched and improved my life.

Allie is such an amazing photographer. I have only recently started looking at and commenting her stream on a regular basis and she has some incredible talent. She will go so far! Keep up the awesome work, Allie :D it has been 3 months since I wrote this testimonial and now I really want to add to it because, Allie, you deserve so much more than one sentence of words. You are truly a one of a kind photographer and you're a wonderful person. You're photos have so much emotion and Flickr has become sort of like a journal of your life. You share your hurts, your joy, your struggles and your heart with everyone on here. One of the things I admire so much about you is you are so open with everything that goes on in your life and you are not fake and I respect that so much. I feel like I need to say so much more but there are no words. you are just an amazing person, Allie. simple as that. Tessa

Allie is by far the best contact you could ask for. She gets involved in her contacts, and nothing holds her back from commenting or giving you some advice.

Allie is by far the best contact you could ask for. She gets involved in her contacts, and nothing holds her back from commenting or giving you some advice. Though she is religious, she never lets that overshadow or define her amazingness as a photographer. Nor does she ever let it affect how she feels about your photography. She has a true grasp for talent, and you are lucky if she considers you a friend, let alone a contact. I don't remember how I came across her stream, but everyday I feel special and blessed that she has become a part of my life (and I'm not even religious...) She is incredible. I wish that when I was her age I had discovered my passion for photography as she so obviously has.

Allie- What to say? There are so many things that need to be said, but only few of them can be put into words. Your photos make me feel something. I can't quite express what it is because it's something I've never felt before. Deep down in my heart it gets all tight and I just sit there and reflect. This might sound weird, but your photos just make me think a lot about my life. Many of your photos make me cry, and the times when you pair them with a song are perfect. As a person, you are completely awesome. I love knowing that I can talk to you about anything and I love that you are a fellow daughter of Christ. I really appreciate all your support and I love you, Allie!

I'm not really sure how testimonials work, or how they're done, but judging by the past ones people have left you, I'm sure it's just a really long comment and this is where I write how I feel about your photostream and you as a person, at least the person you choose to show on here. We see only what you share after all. But I know you share quite a bit, even if it's in some mysterious way that we have to read maybe more than once to fully understand and grasp. But that's okay. It's your photos. It's your description. Fortunately for us, we see lots. Your photos are amazing. You're beautiful in such a way that can't be described. You can look so angry, sad, pissed off, and so emotional and yet still come across as so gorgeous. Your self-portraits are so inspiring. I might just have to go out and buy a remote for my camera, because sometimes 10 seconds is not long enough. I don't know how you did it before the remote but you were dead on. I honestly wait for your fun comments and notes on my photos. I'm glad that you had the chance and actually continue to make the effort to view my photos, because it honestly means a lot. It feels like you're someone who's "famous" on Flickr. At least to me, I'm still new to this. I get inspiration from you. I love the emotion that you show in your photos. That's what I used as a guideline when I took some of mine. My friends said they were "filled with depression" and "so much anxiety." I called it "something different" and that "other people enjoy photos like this." So thank you for being an inspiration. Never stop, never quit. Seriously. We would probably all die a little inside without you. At least those of us that are frequent visitors to your page. I always look forward to your new uploads and I'm glad that I found your photostream. Keep your chin up, girl. We love you here on Flickr.

Wow, Allie is incredible. Her photography is so powerful and beautiful. And the way she uses sunlight? Sheesh, it's incredible! I always look forward to her work. Allie, You express yourself so well through your photography. It is all so personal, and I am so grateful that you are willing to share your feelings with us. Also, I love that you are not afraid to share your faith with others. God has given you such an incredible gift and it's so awesome to see you glorifying Him with it. I love that you aren't fake and you say what you're feeling, even though it's not always positive or uplifting. You are raw, and I love it. In Him, Tori

Well, this is going to be very hard to type, because as I told you before, the english language, it does not have enough beautiful, striking, or any other words to describe how much your stream means to me. Your words, they just make me want to scream at myself. They provoke so much thought, and they really can speak to anyone at anytime in their life. I know that from the time I started looking at your stream to now, I would always be amazed/ in awe. The way you portray your emotions is something I really admire. There is always a block in between emotion and expressing it. I like to think of it as when you're really young, all you do is cry because you don't know what you're feeling, but you, you seem to know what you are all the time. It amazes me. Another thing is, you always leave thoughtful comments. you don't leave comments just to leave them. You leave them so that the person knows that you understand the thought put behind the picture. It's usually so hard to do that, but you always get what I mean, and get what I'm trying to put out there. I couldn't explain, put into words, or show you with a picture how truly incredible you are, and your pictures.. well, they are beyond anything I've ever seen. You are amazing, and so are your pictures. Please, never stop.

I know I’ve said this before, but Allie, your photos are so sublime and carry so much emotion they make me cry. Your pictures have the most emotion I’ve ever seen, on Flickr or otherwise. You have a way of digging into people’s minds and pulling at heart their heartstrings in a way that is compassionate and artistic at the same time. The words and poems in your descriptions accentuate your photography’s greatness, and every single one of your pictures tells a story. You’re so brave and unafraid to share your feelings and faith in Jesus Christ, which is an inspiration in itself. I wish I could wholly explain how much your photostream impacts me, and I’m sure hundreds of others, on a daily basis. You have the wisdom of someone that has lived a hundred years and are one of the sweetest people here on Flickr. You’re just brilliant, Allie. Your pictures, your words, and your thoughts inspire me and leave me speechless. You’re a spectacular individual.

There are many contacts that I have on this site, most come across every once in a while for a quick favorite or comment, Allie stops by everyday, and I can't help but to appreciate that to the fullest extent. Not only is she one of the best contacts I'll ever have on this site, but one of the best photographers I'll ever see. I don't think I've seen so much emotion and thought put into photography before until I came across this photostream, and how I love looking through it. I've never been disappointed while searching through, and she deserves every comment, favorite, and explore she gets. Plus her pictures are usually flawless, with amazing tones, color, concepts, and set up. She really does make me happy to be on here, and that I began my 365. I feel that I need to return all of her favors and comment every single picture of hers, whether she thinks they're good or not. I'm very grateful to have come across Allie, as if I hadn't, Flickr would be pretty depressing. I encourage everybody to check her stream out, since she doesn't seem to lack anything, as all of her pictures are stunning and beautiful. I'm very glad to know her, as should everybody else.

It is rare to find photostreams that draw me in again and again. Allie's is one that never fails to do so. So many times I come across her photos only to find that she is exactly in the same mood I am and can voice it through her shots in ways that I could never dream. I understand completely with each and every photo exactly where she is and I am often amazed at the beauty she can create from even the darkest situations. I don't know her personally all that well, but from what I can tell about her, she is a delight to her friends, and a precious addition to flickr and to photography in itself. Her photos are all emotion, and it is what draws me in and captivates me, again and again and again.

So I met this girl named Allie. Just a chance encounter. Nothing special or out of the ordinary, right? Little by little I discover just how special this young lady is. First, I discover her stunning artistry. Allie's photos and writings always have a deep meaning behind them. Her work constantly leaves me breathless. As she starts to let me into her world, I catch glimpses of the deeply emotional being that lies below the surface. Allie's kind, compassionate, insightful comments have inspired me. Not just to be a better photographer, but to be a better person. Finally, I have come to know Allie for the amazingly beautiful person that she is. Her honesty, compassion, and understanding have given me an enduring hope for the future. I lucked out with this seemingly simple chance encounter. Get to know this beautiful girl. She is well worth the effort.
