		<description>I never comment but just had to here.  I think your work and your intentions are amazing and genuine.  You will never be able to please everyone and at the end of the day the only one you need to worry about is God.  Keep your eyes on Him and he will never let you down.  Keep doing what your doing girl!  He gave you an amazing heart and talent!</description>

		<description>Mikaela.  Please don&#039;t let others steal your joy.  Your boudoir images are tasteful and classy.  Just because you are a christian does not mean you can&#039;t be a boudoir photographer.</description>

		<description>The only great thing about criticism such as this, is the fact that we can clarify and define to ourselves what are own &quot;intentions&quot; are....it&#039;s always good to take a look again, confirm what we know is true. It&#039;s true that &quot;Iron sharpens iron&quot; but it can hurt at first but you&#039;ll be stronger for it. I for one am a fan of your work and I love to see how you&#039;ve taken the love between a man and his wife out of the gutter and into Godly light.</description>

		<description>The boudoir shoot that you posted on your blog was beautiful and sweet. For a woman to trust another woman to show her at her best, in photos that will be a gift to the man she loves, is worth so much. You did it beautifully, and you know that this bride was more than happy! I&#039;m sure her groom was too. May many more brides and wives be inspired to be creative and a wee bit daring and trust you and your camera! They will not be disappointed! And you will be blessed! And may you hear and absorb all these positive comments and forget the very few negative ones! xoxo</description>

		<description>You inspire me and what I have seen of your vision and your talent does not ever make me doubt the depth of professionalism and artistry that you possess. Rather, your faith and the beauty that you see in others is captured in such beautifully poignant and touching ways. Your vision, to me, is beautiful and your journey has inspired me to follow in your footsteps. Someday I will be a photographer, and I will be able to say that Mikaela inspired me. &lt;3</description>

		<description>Mikaela,

Your work is absolutely incredible. I LOVE your work, only wish I had tons of money to hire you for every season and all the occasions that I would LOVE to have photos taken :) cause I LOVE having photos taken.

Your boudoir session was absolutely stunning. I think I commented on it at the time, that I only wish I had a body that I could pull that off with :) but that&#039;s ok, God has blessed me with 2 beautiful children.

Keep doing what you&#039;re doing. God has the perfect plan and right now, in this moment, you are doing exactly what He wants you to be doing.

Bless you as you keep taking beautiful photos!</description>

		<description>Mikaela,

Thanks so much for sharing... I didn&#039;t even really know that special boudoir photography sessions exist, but for the reasons you gave, I fully support you in that.  If I were getting married all over again right now, I&#039;d totally hire you to do that for me... sounds sexy and fun. 

I think your work it great- you will have no problems getting 20 brides a year to like you... or whatever your number is.
