Comment:

 get_category_parents works as expected.  It retrieves a child categories
 parents. Your issue is how the category id that gets passed to the
 function is retrieved.  If you are using get_the_category() the term array
 returned will be ordered alphabetically ( see wp_get_object_terms(); )

 {{{
 add_filter( 'the_content', 'test_get_cat_parents' );
 function test_get_cat_parents( $content ) {
     $cats = get_the_category();

     return $content. '<br>' . get_category_parents( $cats[0]->term_id );
  }
 }}}

 This will return only photography for post 2.  If the array index is
 changed from 0 to 1 then then it will return photography and wedding
 because the id passed to get_category_parents will be the actual child
 term.
