Elizabeth Efferson

Wedding, Engagement, & Live Event Painting

A live painting is more than a keepsake, it preserves the feeling of your day in a way that photographs can’t, through color, texture, and the artist’s hand. Your wedding day deserves to be remembered in a way that feels as magical as the moment itself.

Elizabeth Efferson is an Atlanta-based fine artist who transforms your most meaningful wedding moments into timeless, hand-painted keepsakes. Working live on-site (or from a favorite photo), she captures the atmosphere, emotion, and beauty of your celebration as it unfolds, allowing guests to watch your love story come to life on canvas. Each painting is thoughtfully finished in her studio and delivered as a one-of-a-kind heirloom that reflects the heart of your day.

How it Works

Every live wedding painting is a collaboration. Here’s what you can expect when you book with me:

1. Consultation & Vision

We’ll start with a conversation about your day, the atmosphere, the colors, and the moments that mean the most to you. Together, we’ll decide which scene you’d like me to capture (your ceremony, first dance, or another special moment) and choose the perfect canvas size for your space.

2. The Wedding Day

I’ll arrive around 2 hours before your event to find the best vantage point and begin the composition. As the celebration unfolds, I paint live on-site, capturing your day in real time. Guests often enjoy watching the painting come to life throughout the evening, it’s always a joy to share that creative process with them.

3. Studio Finishing

After your wedding, I take the painting back to my studio to refine the details, enhance color and texture, and apply a professional varnish to ensure it’s beautifully preserved for years to come.

4. Delivery

Once the final touches are complete and the varnish has dried, your painting will be carefully packaged and either hand-delivered or shipped to you, ready to display as a one-of-a-kind heirloom that captures the joy of your day.
