WHY
i can't wait to
From stolen glances to cheeky kisses and getting loose on the dance floor, I'll be there to document your love story (and all the fun bits). I'll even make sure to snap authentic moments that may've slipped by unnoticed - they're the best ones!
Whether you want me to inconspicuously lurk in the shadows, snapping candid shots or be right up the front, rounding everyone up for group photos, I'll be the chameleon you need on the day. Either way, I'll be behind the lenses, not missing a beat.
document your day
on heart
Hand
Every ounce of my energy will go towards creating a gorgeous collection of images to forever memorialize your day. When you look through the photos memories will come to life and it'll be as though you're right there doing it all over again.
I have always been creatively minded and had a deep love for true connection between humans, the unabashed real type of connection. I believe, at the end of the day, these true moments, even the smallest ones, are what mean the most. Weddings are filled with these tiny moments and the fact that I get to capture them, stop time and hand them onto you to be remembered forever means more than you may ever know.
Chat soon, I can't wait to hear all about your ideas and plans for the day.
A creative soul with a love for romance.
I'm Kriztelle
HELLO!
Arie & Elliott
Kriztelle was the best part of our day (besides getting married 🤭)! She went above and beyond during the entire planning process, as well as for our special day. Our elopement wouldn’t have been made possible without Kriztelle’s energy, laughter, and passion. I hate taking pictures, but she made it feel candid and natural. If you want an experience that is both positive and warm - then you picked the right person to have as your photographer.

How many professionally taken photos do you and your partner have, ones that you really love and can fill your home with?
An engagement shoot is a chance for us to capture some really beautiful, candid photos of you and your partner in a relaxed environment. Just the two of you, being you.
Plus, if you're a little camera-shy, it's the perfect opportunity for you to practice being comfortable in front of the camera, in the lead up to your wedding day.
Either way, I promise that we'll have a lot of fun while we're at it.
Looking for more than just photos, but a whole new experience and adventure with your love? This session is for you!
Adventure session is a unique date opportunity for you and your partner to either try a new activity or go off and explore new places while documenting your love.
The possibilities are endless! I'll be your adventure buddy and even chauffeur for the day. We can go for a hike, kayak, ice skating, go on a picnic on top of a mountain, beach date, etc.

"The whole time Kriztelle’s guidance made us feel so comfortable and real. My partner isn’t a huge fan of photos so I was excited to see how comfortable he got."
Kriztelle took my graduation photos earlier this year. My partner and I loved her work so much we decided to take photos together with her and went to Indiana Dunes, which looked like we were in Colorado. The whole time Kriztelle’s guidance made us feel so comfortable and real. My partner isn’t a huge fan of photos so I was excited to see how comfortable he got. She also remembered what type of photos I wanted and was so sweet in making sure I got the shot I want. I cannot recommend Kriztelle enough and know I will for sure be using her talents and skills in the future.

I'm based in Chicago, Illinois, but I travel all over the globe to capture love.
You bet I do! Nothing excited me more than the opportunity to shoot a destination wedding or elopement.
If you're thinking of taking your celebrations overseas, please get in touch so we can chat about the finer details.
A million times YESS!!! All love is welcome here no matter how you identify, your beliefs, and regardless of how you define your relationship, I'd love to be a part of your wedding day. Love is love and I'm 100% here for it!
If you and your partner are thinking of skipping the fuss and running off to do a private ceremony with just the two of you or a handful of your nearest and dearest, I'd be absolutely honored to document your intimate ceremony. Our elopement packages start at 4 hours coverage, so get in touch if you;'d like to learn more.
You'll receive over at least 100+ photos, depending on how many hours we shoot and how jam-packed your session day is!
Firstly, I’ll send you a few sneak peek shots a couple of days after your session. 2 to 4 weeks weeks later, you’ll receive a link to your online gallery and slide show to watch and relive your session day.
It will take roughly 2 to 4 weeks to receive your final session photos. I put a lot of love and care into perfecting each image, which is why it'll take me a little bit more time to deliver your final images. If you'd like your photos sooner, please ask me about the rush fee.
This is your wedding and if you are uncomfortable with your photos being shared on my social media platforms, I will respect that. Just let me know ahead of time before your wedding / session.
This has never happened and will NEVER happen. However, if it did, I have contacts all over the states that will be able to step in. These are other talented photographers who will take good care of you day of.
Yes, for weddings, you have the option to pay in full, or sign up for a payment plan which is divided to the month between your initial (retainer payment) and 1 month before your wedding.
For regular couples or lifestyle sessions, you can pay in full or 50/50.
Of course, I'd love for you to print your favorite photos! You can easily order photos prints through your online gallery.
Life is complicated and the unexpected is to be expected. The retainer is non refundable as this helps to protect my business due to turning away all other booking for your session date. I hope you understand that the retainer is insurance for my business to stay afloat in the event of a cancellation.
Yes, from years of experience in the wedding industry I have come to work with some of the top wedding vendors. I have listed some of the stand out vendors on my website. If you would like a specific recommendations, just reach out and I'm sure I will have some suggestions I can send you.
Kriztelle is amazing! She made us feel comfortable during our engagement shoot and was a calming presence during our wedding day (even though we were running an hour late). Our wedding didn't feel like one big photoshoot, rather we were in the moment and that a skilled photographer happened to be there to capture the best moments. Her experience and expertise really helped make the day go by smoothly!!!

Samantha & Masaki
Kriztelle has been a dream to work with! We worked on a couples' shoot with her before, and she made myself and my partner feel comfortable. She is personable and approachable, which has made our experience feel less stressful overall. Her photos and editing style evoke feelings of happiness, tranquility, and love, capturing the emotion that me and my partner share. My partner and I have butterflies when we see the photos because it feels so real and artistic. Because of this experience, we chose her as our wedding photographer and we are excited to work with her again! Kriztelle is very communicative, accessible, and organized. So far, our wedding planning has been stress-free thanks to her!
"She is personable and approachable, which has made our experience feel less stressful overall."
Michelle & Fabian
Kriztelle was genuinely a great person to collaborate with when I proposed to my now fiancé. She made the process more fluent than I was expecting. Her preparation and attention to detail was on notice from the day our first meeting through zoom to the day I proposed to the love of my life. She was my fiancé's dream photographer so I insisted on working with her and she did not let down. Her creativity truly became apparent through the photos she took. A true professional with a gifted eye for the smaller things in life. She captured love through a lens and we teared upon our first look.
