Lauren, I am so happy that I finally have the chance to write you a testimonial because you deserve all the praise that you get. I'm always excited when I see that you have uploaded something new and chances are, it will amaze me every time. Each of your photos are utter magic and incredibly heart-warming. You also seem like the loveliest person. I hope you achieve everything that you wish for because you utterly deserve it. Best wishes, Ann.

Lauren's work is so simple and so intense. I wonder how she can take amazing photographs of herself. She seems to see the people, the details and the world like no one. Everything becomes, if it's possible, even more beautiful and delicate. I have seen the pictures of Lauren before knowing her. She seemed to be talen… Read more

Lauren's work is so simple and so intense. I wonder how she can take amazing photographs of herself. She seems to see the people, the details and the world like no one. Everything becomes, if it's possible, even more beautiful and delicate. I have seen the pictures of Lauren before knowing her. She seemed to be talented and unapproachable as the best. In truth, she's really talented and really nice. Because beauty and talent do not seem to be enough, she's such a kind and sweet person.

Lauren, you beautiful being. I try to communicate my awe of you on every single one of your photos, and somehow it never seems to be enough. You draw beauty out of dark, desolate places, places full of rage and hate and hurt and despair. I cannot thank you enough for the inspiration you have provided me with, and the … Read more

Lauren, you beautiful being. I try to communicate my awe of you on every single one of your photos, and somehow it never seems to be enough. You draw beauty out of dark, desolate places, places full of rage and hate and hurt and despair. I cannot thank you enough for the inspiration you have provided me with, and the blessing you give the world with every picture you take. You are a lovely, lovely person. Your soul shines, even though you often can't see it. You make ripples. You affect people, and you've affected me, in the deepest way. Your faith has been a beacon to me, you have been a light in the dark. Don't ever believe you're less than what you're not, I'm praying for that above all. Lovelovelove, Emma

Lauren has a rare beauty, both in herself and in her photography. She evokes so much emotion and isn't afraid to show that emotion. Her photography is passionate and honest and real and I love it.

Lauren has a rare beauty, both in herself and in her photography. She evokes so much emotion and isn't afraid to show that emotion. Her photography is passionate and honest and real and I love it. She opens up to the flickr community and let's her beauty shine through every word and picture posted. Not only is she a talented photographer, but a gifted writer, too. I hope to be like her, some day. Lauren, I hope you know just how truly wonderful you are. Any heartache or pain you're feeling right now will end, but God will see you through any difficult time you may/will have. I hope you continue with your photography for the rest of your life. You are amazing.

Lauren. Oh my. Lauren is a beautiful person. Inside and out. I feel like I've known her for so long, by just talking to her for a couple of minutes. She's such a lovely person.

Lauren. Oh my. Lauren is a beautiful person. Inside and out. I feel like I've known her for so long, by just talking to her for a couple of minutes. She's such a lovely person. I can open up to her, for some reason, and feel completely at ease talking to her. Her photography is gorgeous. Every photograph she takes has a meaning behind it.. and a raw kind of emotion that sticks with you. Her eyes are hauntingly beautiful, and when she makes eye contact with the camera it is just.. stunning. Really stunning. Lauren is a really inspirational girl and I am so happy to be friends with her via flickr. She makes me feel so happy with her encouragement. Thank you, Lauren.

"You have this way of portraying such elegance and beauty to your photos. Not to mention how gorgeous you truly are. I can't say I know you very well, but from things I read that you write on tumblr, and flickr, you seem like you truly have a heart of gold. Never give up on your dreams " I have much to write.

"You have this way of portraying such elegance and beauty to your photos. Not to mention how gorgeous you truly are. I can't say I know you very well, but from things I read that you write on tumblr, and flickr, you seem like you truly have a heart of gold. Never give up on your dreams " I have much to write. That testimonial wasn't good enough. Lauren ~ She is an angel. Godsent. If you haven't seen her photos yet, you better because you don't know what you're missing out on. The first time I came across Lauren's flickr was a few of months ago, maybe more. I was captured by her elegance & striking beauty, not only with photography, but with her individual beauty. Reading the descriptions of her photos literally brought me to tears. She has a heart of gold. I then followed her on tumblr & she intrigued me. I don't know what it is about you Lauren, but you're special to me. Every since I first came across your stream, I felt that I found you for a reason. That doesn't happen very much for me. And when seeing your photos, with the emotion shining through every pixel, I realised that you're extremely special. Not only do I love you as a photographer, but as a person. You're a giant inspiration to me, so much you don't even know, and I hope one day to meet you. You'd be the friend I would cherish more than anyone.

Lauren Rushing. Having had her as a contact for a while, I've had the pleasure of watching this girl improve in leaps and bounds.

Lauren Rushing. Having had her as a contact for a while, I've had the pleasure of watching this girl improve in leaps and bounds. Her self-portraiture captures brilliantly not only her physical beauty, which she abounds in, but also an intimacy I have never seen in the work of others. She has developed her own style, and I know her pictures always carry an emotional depth that mine lack. Lauren, keep going and you'll go far. God bless.

Lauren produces the most amazing portraits I've ever seen, and would easily be my first choice when asked whom I would recommend to capture the essence of a person through an image. Matching the utter brilliance of her works are her words, both of which touch our souls. She gives us such an awe-inspiring artistic sta… Read more
