EXPERTS AT MAKING YOU LOOK GOOD!

We will guide you every step of the way through your photo shoot, so you don't have to worry about striking the perfect pose without some help. Every member of our team knows exactly what it's like to feel nervous about getting your photo taken. Not everyone is a professional model but we can sure help you look and feel like one while working with us! Even though our style is candid and natural that doesn't mean you just have to "look natural" the whole time, we will guide you through it and make sure you look the best throughout the entire shoot.

Your big day, documented for a lifetime

Hey there! I'm Tristen,

Documenting life is my favorite past-time!

I've been taking photos for as long as my mom has trusted me with her camera gear back when I was a little kid! What started as a little girl taking blurry close-ups of the bugs in her backyard has slowly transformed into my life's biggest passion.  Seriously, nothing makes me feel better than seeing someone grow more confident in front of a camera throughout a photo shoot.  It gives me all those warm and fuzzy feelings knowing I helped someone fall in love with themselves a bit more.

How it all began. . .

I started my photography career in 2017 by working with models and occasionally local clothing brands.  Since then I have tried almost every form of photography even including real estate (yeah it's not really my thing...).  I shot my first wedding in the fall of 2018 for a friend back home in Forks, WA, and I fell in love with love itself!  Since then I was driven to work more with couples and focus on weddings.  I made my debut at the Modern Wedding Show in 2019 as "Tristen Williams Photography" and had 13 weddings in my first official year.  Wander West was born the following year, and since my start, I've documented nearly 100 weddings!  It's crazy how time flies and how much Wander West has grown. 

What started with just me, one camera, and a dying laptop is now a team operation that covers three different areas. I know little Tristen would be so happy and proud of what we have accomplished, and I can't wait to keep outdoing myself each year making her even more proud.  <3
