  "tess, your photos are the perfect combination of raw and vibrance (but not literally, the kind where you kick up the saturation like adfjksl; or shoot in RAW). both your digital and film leaves me in wonder of the stories you tell with your pictures. never, ever stop creating."

She makes the outdoors look like the most comfortable place in the world, and she has such a beautiful and strong face that there are so many ways you can interpret it. I can't wait to learn more."

  "Tess is practically perfect in every way.
  She is a lovely photographer, and a lovely person. Did I say she is a lovely photographer?
  
  She is such a beautiful person who isnt afraid to be who she is and who doesnt pretend to be someone else. She is already an incredible photographer who will only get better and better and better, and I hope to be able to see where she goes, because she's still young and I know she'll go far.
  
  I hope one day I'll be able to achieve the perfection that she has."

  "I just found Tess recently, and, to put it simply, I've been blown away with every picture she's taken. She is incredibly talented, and her photostream is absolutely gorgeous. Each photo reflects a beauty, emotion, and mood that makes the photo so unique. She makes it look effortless, and yet her photos have a depth and complexity that is impossible to imitate. Tess, you are so inspirational, and I'm really, really, really glad that I found your stream. (And I'm glad you added me as a contact, because I had been wanting to write a testimonial for you for a long time! XD)"

  "Wow. When I first asked to be added as a friend to see your photostream, I had no idea your photos would be so breathtaking. Every single photo you take has amazing emotion. The tones to your photos are amazing. You take some amazing photos Tess. Never give up! You inspire me so much! And well, I also love your indie triangle, lol. BTW, you are so lucky that your sister will model for you, she's amazing, and gorgeous and so are you, I hope I don't sound creepy, I'm not trying to be! (: BTW, did I mention you make grain look beautiful?"

  alison☀louveteau says:

  "Ever since I discovered Tess on here, I have been obsessed with her stream.
  Each image is a beautiful piece of art. Perfect composition, lovely light, captivating pose. Her edits are also amazing. Seriously, each picture has a somewhat different style of editing, and therefore her stream is filled with a ton a variety. And of course, it looks as if she has been editing all her life, because each style of editing is flawless. Utterly flawless.
  
  But of course, photography is more than mere technique. So I must say that the mood that each one of Tess's pieces radiates is that of melancholy and grace. She creates a little world in each image, and though the atmosphere isn't always full of joy, it is certainly beautiful. Lovely and dreamy, this is a world that I would love to visit just to be able to take in all of the emotions.
  
  Bacially, I look up to you so much."

The post of your drawings + your sister's drawings, and just photos of your life, was absolutely beautiful and inspiring. I love your work, so much. You are a HUGE inspiration to me, and each photo you post makes me want to take pictures at that moment in time, no matter what.

  You are so amazing, Tess. Your photography blows my mind. It's crazy what you can do with a camera, and you still have so much more time to learn. You're going to be a photography goddess soon.
  I wish I could do a quarter of the things you can do.

  "Oh Tess, What can I say about Triangle Tess?
  
  Tess is this wonderful person, which you can instantly interpret through her unique self portraits which portray emotion, creativity, and heart. She has some of the best photographs with the use of expression, which are eye catching and beautiful. I love the way she uses light as a form of capturing emotion as well, which is creative technique. Though her portraits are simple, they are complex on so many levels and are completely gorgeous. I don't doubt Tess for one second on her photography and I will continue to follow her stream."

I'm not exactly sure how she does it, or how to explain how much I really do love her photos. Give this girl a camera, and she will get the right lighting and she will take a picture to wow you.

Second, she is just a lovely, sweet girl and she always has nice things to say about other people here on Flickr. Third, her ideas are so interesting and always very creative, and I am inspired daily by her thoughts. There are about a million other things I could say about her photography, but I must save room for more testimonials, which will surely come! So if you haven't added her as a contact yet, please go do it. Now. Go! :)
  I can't wait to see what she comes up with next, because she is a truly beautiful photographer! LOVE so much!!"

  "so, i'm totally updating my testimonial for tess, because my first testimonial did not give this amazing photographer justice.
  
  i could probably talk for hours on how much tess has improved in her photography and has truly become one of the top talented young photographers here on flickr. she is absolutely amazing at photographing, modeling, and composing manipulations! Seriously, if there was one word to describe her, i couldn't tell you, because she can't be described in one word. Tess deserves like 9274012741 words. THATS how good she is!
  
  Plus, she is an awesome friend and an awesome kind person. when i wrote before that you will be seen worldwide, i truly mean it, YOU WILL BE KNOWN WORLDWIDE! keep it up Tess, you're totally going places! :) :)"
