As the title says...

Is this a risky thing?

EDIT: I have a wireguard VPN set up for myself and it's always on so I can access *arrs and the like. I would like to expose immich on my domain to share photo albums and such.

It is no riskier than any other reverse proxy or tunneling app. If you follow good opsec, you should be fine. In truth there is no bulletproof way to avoid intrusion, so do the best you can without completely doing away with convenience.
