Emily and Erin's Ellijay Wedding at Wit's End

Wedding Photography
Written By Cindy Brown

Erin and Emily planned a March wedding with more than 100 guests to take place in the North Georgia Mountains. But, as you can guess, that did not happen.. They postponed their wedding until October thinking the pandemic would be over and everything would be back to normal.

But, as you know, that’s not how things unfolded.

Having postponed their wedding once already, they decided to downsize their guest list and have an intimate COVID-friendly wedding with just a few friends and family.

The wedding took place at Wit’s End, which is described like this on their website: “a dreamscape of babbling streams, mountain valley meadows and magical ancient forests dotted with secret sitting areas, cozy fire pits, tree swings, old farm buildings, a pavilion and a modern cottage.” And, yep … that’s pretty much what the place was like. Amazing!

Here are a few favorite photos from the getting ready and first look portion of the day. I’ll share more photos in a day or two where you’ll get to see how special the grounds were.

I'm an Atlanta wedding photographer who takes soulful, quirky and honest photos ...

I'm also an adventurous traveler and all-round nerd. I love to hike with my beagle/cattle dog Roux and best friend/spouse.

I was born in Atlanta, moved around a lot--30 cities and 5 states--and then came back.

After graduating from the Art Institute of Atlanta, I took a job at asmall newspaper in south Georgia, where I photographedhospital teas, pecan farmers, and beauty queens.

I photographed a biker funeral, death penalty protests andTed Bundy while interning with the Associated Press.

While a photographer for two dailies in Florida, I photographed Ronald Reagan, a train derailment and the dedication of a screened-in porch.

An unexpected life turn took me to Vermont where I fell in love with Bernie Sanders and on to Indiana, where I edited photos for a major daily, and nerded out getting a master’s and PhD.

After teaching photojournalism at colleges and universities in Florida, Indiana and Mississippi, I returned to Atlanta to earn myfifth degree--a Master's of Divinity.

My passion for storytelling with my camera and my interest in religious diversity led my to the field of wedding photojournalism.

I have documented weddings large and small, Unitarian and Pagan, indoors and out, Christian and Muslim, in backyards and in churches. The most exotic wedding I have photographed took place in Mexico and was officiated by aMayan shaman.

When I'm not photographing weddings, portraits or corporate events, I work on personal photo projects, visit friends in amemory-care home, and volunteer at a recovery center.
