Kriztelle is absolutely AMAZING!
We have nothing but great things to say about Kriztelle of Tethered Stories. From the beginning of the process to the final delivery of the photos, it has been nothing short of amazing. We booked her for our branding photos for our new website and social media posts, and she went above and beyond. She knew of a few studios to go to, and they were all great options. The session was so fun and lasted a few hours with multiple outfit changes. We felt ourselves and goofed around the entire time. The photos were STUNNING!! She is such a great photographer and the photos speak for themselves. We highly recommend Kriztelle for weddings (we're videographers and have worked on many weddings with her in the past; she's amazing) or any photos you may need (family, new born, branding, etc.)!!!

10/10!!!!
Kriztelle was absolutely incredible from start to finish! From our engagement shoot to running all around the city on our wedding day, she brought such amazing energy and professionalism to every moment. She made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera, which really shows in the photos. She seamlessly captured everything—from beautiful, intimate couple shots to family photos and all the candid moments in between. Her eye for detail is truly exceptional, and every photo feels so thoughtful and artistic. We are beyond grateful for her and will cherish these photos forever. I couldn’t recommend her more!

Wonderful Photography; Relaxed Personality
Tethered Stories was an absolute pleasure to work alongside at a recent wedding. Their communication style was relaxed yet professional, and their creative, keen-eyed approach resulted in beautiful, unique, and artistic photos that perfectly captured the couple's special day. They were flexible to work with, knowing exactly the right shots to get without being intrusive and had great communication with the other vendors like me. For example, when we were about to go into cake cutting, the Kriztelle realized the sun was setting just right for some golden hour photos. She concisely communicated her vision to the couple and me, and I as the DJ quickly adapted the timeline so that guests weren't confused about what happened next, all while she got gorgeous shots. All of their work is truly exceptional and you'll be thrilled with the memories they provide. Book Tethered Stories now!

We had the pleasure of working with Kriztelle of Tethered Stories at Meyer's Castle, and her talent left a lasting impression. She captured the day with stunning artistry, delivering images that were both emotive and timeless. Kriztelle was calm, professional, and a true pleasure to work with throughout the day. We would be thrilled to welcome her back and highly recommend her to any couple seeking elegant, storytelling photography! :-)

Elopement Shoot
Kriztelle is an amazing photographer! She made both me and my husband feel so comfortable during our elopement shoot. She guided us through the entire process with patience and ease, especially when we had no idea how to pose (lol). Her ability to capture genuine moments is incredible. The photos we received are absolutely beautiful, memories we’ll truly cherish forever. So grateful we had her as part of our special day!
