Services
Wedding and Elopement Packages in The Smoky Mountains National park, Gatlinburg and Pigeon Forge. Ely's Mill is a privately owned creekside property, tucked away in a quiet corner of Gatlinburg. Its location borders the Great Smoky Mountains National Park, so you get all of the natural beauty that the National Park has to offer in a private setting.
The Foothills Parkway is known to locals and visitors alike as "the prettiest drive in America". This particular overlook is one of the most popular spots in the Great Smoky Mountains for elopements. Just steps from parking, it's easily accessible but out of view from the road so much quieter than most of the other overlooks.
This beautiful log chapel seats up to 25, and has the warmth and charm of a small church. Soft, natural light illuminates the chapel through large stained glass windows. The Gatlinburg Chapel has private Bride and Groom changing rooms, restrooms, and is handicap accessible. There are several perfect photo opportunities both inside and out.
This beautiful waterfall is located in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park less than 2 miles outside of Gatlinburg. It's a short, 250 meter walk on a flat, wide, easy trail. This is the perfect waterfall for your wedding because most other waterfalls in the Smokies require a hike of at least a mile to get to.
Wedding and Elopement Packages in the Cades Cove area of the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. Cades Cove is a lush valley surrounded by mountains, it is one of the most popular destinations in the Great Smoky Mountains National Park. You can catch a glimps of everything the park has to offer; views, wildlife and history.

Taking pictures that either of us likes is difficult enough. But to take dozens that we both love, that's extraordinary!!!! Amazing job. Thank you Eric.

We are from Wisconsin so being from out of state and only able to communicate via phone or email we were nervous, but we were totally put as ease once we met in person and everything went great. Very professional and friendly, great communication. Went above and beyond what we could ask for.

Everything was kind of last minute planned on my end and they made it so easy to get everything put together ❤ Price wasn't outrageous like some companies we looked at which eased our minds and pockets. I honestly couldn't be happier with how everything went! The minister was such a very sweet man! We were so comfortable with him...we could tell that he genuinely cared and was happy to be there on our special day. We had so much fun with our photos and our photographer! He even captured a surprise "guest" in a few of our photos to make them just that much more special.

I can't say enough good things about Eric and New Beginnings Photography. Eric is professional and talented, yet warm and personable, making everyone comfortable. We had six children in the ceremony, ranging from 18 mos. to 6 yrs. He was amazing with them. He took such care with every shot and our photos are beyond beautiful. I absolutely recommend Eric.

My wife and I were married in Gatlinburg Tennessee, Eric was absolutely amazing from beginning to end. He is such a professional. I hope that if anyone in the area needs photography or wedding services that they contact him. He is very responsive and is there for you with all your needs. He made this day so easy for us. Eric we can’t thank you enough for everything. The pictures are just amazing.

Eric was very nice and professional and our photos turned out AMAZING. The location was at his suggestion and it was exactly what we wanted. And planning it out with him was very easy. My husband and I could not have asked for a better experience! We got married on Halloween and he even took a few photos with our masks on :D We would very highly recommend going with Eric if you are searching for someone to give you a memorable Gatlinburg wedding!
