For those who love deep live wild, and want to hold it close.

Our heart is in capturing weddings that feel real, intentional, and deeply personal. At Appalachian Wedding Photography, we specialize in documenting love stories through wedding photography that reflects who you truly are—not just how things looked, but how they felt. We’re drawn to couples who want more than just pretty pictures—those who care about preserving memories with depth, honesty, and meaning.

Whether your wedding unfolds on a misty mountaintop, in your backyard, beside a waterfall, at the courthouse, or oceans away, your story deserves to be told with artistry and heart. Based in Blue Ridge, Georgia, we’re honored to travel near and far to document weddings that feel like you.

“We LOVED working with Emilie! Her photography style was exactly what we were looking for. It wasn’t until the day of the wedding, that I really realized how lucky I was to have Emilie there. She really knows how to make the entire day flow smoothly no matter what happens and get all the shots you want. Emilie was able to make things happen and keep to the schedule, much like a day-of wedding planner. She guides everyone through the whole day. I can’t imagine how it would have gone without her.”
