Paul Eisenberg, owner of Poppy Fabrics in Oakland and a regular client of the gallery..."If you're a wine drinker, like I am, going back to the places where those wines came from; the earth and the vineyards are so beautiful and captures that like no one else does, you can almost feel the sunshine in the vines."

as quoted in and article in the Contra Costa Times (08/02/05)

"Sharon has also done commercial work for my business, Poppy Fabric, including ads and photographs to accompany a magazine article. Her sense of color and design are extraordinary, the results dramatic, and she is highly praised by all who have seen her pictures - she is also a pleasure to work with."

Paul Eisenberg, additional comments, owner, Poppy Fabric, Oakland, CA

"We really needed a good photograph of our product for some promotion pieces and, after having been disappointed by another company, a business associate of ours recommended Sharon Collier... she not only took fantastic photos that met our needs precisely, but was ahead of our deadline and we found the price to be very reasonable, especially considering the quality of work involved"...

Dan Hennage & Ed Koch, Coactive Aesthetics, Inc. and Akua Control
