BEHIND THE LENS
Hey friend, I'm Bridgette! Your Lake Tahoe Wedding Photographer
Hi my sweet friend, I'm so excited that you're here! I truly believe I was put on this earth to document life's precious moments - you know, like your grandfather wiping his tears as you share your vows, or your best friends cracking jokes over a few drinks during cocktail hour.
Having photos that allow you to relive these moments for generations - is priceless. I'd be honored to capture your story, so you can pull out your wedding photos in 20, 30, 50+ years and say, "Lemme tell you the story of how your grandparents got married"

My Story...
A little bit more about me & my story -
I've been a photographer since 2017 (8 years now) and I've been full-time working for BWP for 6 of them! I've shot hundreds of weddings and love stories, and delivered countless memories that'll be cherished for generations.
My goal as a photographer is to always be inspired by my couples love stories & retell them to the best of my ability, to allow every walk of life feel loved and welcomed, and to stay passionate about my craft & not work too much haha
I will always go above and beyond for you, every single step of the way, and always do what I say I'm going to do. My word is very important to me!
I would be honored to be your photographer & capture your incredible wedding weekend!!

YOUR love story
The Team
This is my family, my team, and my whole heart and soul. Jake, my husband and I own & operate Bridgette Wuest Photography LLC together full-time, and it's been a dream!!
Little back story - Jake and I met as co-workers at In-N-Out Burger, both ended up quitting to pursue photography full-time, and we've never looked back!
I run the front end of the business (shooting weddings, client communication, editing, social media) and Jake runs the backend of the business (finances, culling, blogging, etc). I'm the creative, and he's the logical thinker and we truly are the dream team.
Together we have a puppy named Taz and love having routines at home, going to the gym, making yummy healthy meals, playing board games, camping and swimming at the lake, and just enjoying the simplest of days.
& my whole heart
Daily Life
Daily life has been a dream! i wake up, have some coffee and breakfast & a slow morning, and then get some work done for the day! Serving dream clients and students i'm so grateful to work with.
Afterwards, I'll usually hit the gym mid-day, and then go and live life! typically I'm working on house projects, hosting loved ones, cooking meals, playing with taz in the backyard, playing board games, or exploring lake tahoe & new hikes & restaurants. tacos & margs are basically my love language haha, i consume them way too much lol!
Educator & Coach
when i'm not shooting weddings, i'm teaching other photographers!
After growing a 6+ figure photography business, it's been incredible helping other photographers do the same!! When I'm not shooting weddings or camping with loved ones, I'm teaching other students how to build their dream life as well.
"Bridgette is more than just your photographer, she is a best friend/planner extraordinaire"
"The most important part of my wedding was the photographer since my husband & I eloped we wanted someone who could capture our most special day. She was recommended by another photographer I had reached out to & the rest was history!! She even responded back the same day about booking our date. From the zoom calls, text messages & even care package Bridgette made sure we were taken care of & helped every step of the way!! We had never been in snow before & would text her random questions about clothes & driving, etc. She would always happily answer even though she really didn’t have to. She also did TONS of research on potential locations & even set up timelines for the day. Day of the wedding she fit right in & we were all talking like we had known each other for years!! She went on a grueling hike with us to get some gorgeous shots & at the top of the hike gave me her sweater so I could take my dress off. Bridgette is more than just your photographer, she is a best friend/planner extraordinaire!!"
