I can’t say enough good things about William and his services. He was amazing to work with and really captured our wedding day beautifully. He responded quickly if o had questions leading up to the wedding, and he was even able to find a second shooter 3 weeks before our big day. We got the preview of our photos 2 days after our wedding and they blew me away! I can’t stop looking at them, and I’m excited to get the rest back soon!

You will not be disappointed. Professional. Experienced. Talented. Very like able and easy-going personality. Delivers what is promised. My husband and I loved working with William! Of all the decisions we needed to make when planning our wedding, our photographer was one that ranked high on priority. I first saw Williams profile on thumbtack, and then reviewed his website. I shared the website with my husband and we planned a call to ask some questions and get to know him a little more. We knew after we spoke to him, that he was going to be our guy. He is confident in what he's doing, which is very reassuring. That confidence and professionalism was demonstrated during our event and it kept us (me) calm! He arrived well before the ceremony was to begin, and began doing what he does! We expressed to William that our ceremony was small and intimate- 25 people only and that it was just family so we wanted to be present as much as we could. My husband and I wanted photos together, but we didn't want to miss spending time with our family in spite of it. This is where his experience was so key- he took us outside and had an eye for exactly the best places to take some shots. He made us feel so comfortable, that our photos came out natural, sincere, and genuine. I was afraid of anything looking "staged" ... But everything came out natural! And, gorgeous! And more- we weren't gone long from our reception. We also were careful to express that we didn't want our photographer to be in anyone's face, since it was such an intimate experience- On this he delivered too! We hardly ever noticed him at all!!!!!! This was great because he captured so many candid moments of us and our family- it did not feel like he was another guest at the wedding- he was in the background doing his thing- but that never compromised any photos because so many special moments were captured. William was thorough in making sure he took the family portraits that we wanted, and was available for anything we needed. I received many quotes from photographers while shopping around- William was hands down the best value for his rate. It was less than 24hrs before he had a sneak peak of our photos available online for us to peak at and share with family! We got married on Saturday- so this means that the rest of Saturday and/or Sunday, he was working to deliver this to us- Thank you William!

William did exactly what I asked for. I asked for candid shots. And that’s exactly what William did. My friend, who likes photography, said, “Every time there was a special moment, your photographer was right there.” William captured the day fully and completely without having to pose for traditional portraits. All of my friends commented by saying, “Wow, you had a great photographer, and we never noticed him.” Pictures came out amazing. I highly recommend William West Studio. You can’t go wrong. 😉Happy Planning! Look no further, William West Studio is it. 👍👍👍

Will and his team were professional, easy to work with, and kind. They listened to our requests and on our wedding day, they delivered a beautiful portfolio of pictures that we look back on fondly. They took countless photos that included nearly all our guests, which made for a great way to share something with our guests to remember the night. Not to mention the photos were of the highest quality. Will and his team even stayed late into the reception to capture candid photos of our guests and us dancing. We could not recommend William West Studio any higher!
