I would pick them 1000x over again!

One of the best decisions we made during wedding planning was choosing Emerald Stone photography for our big day! Erica was a joy to work with from our initial phone call, leading up to the wedding and even post wedding day. Prior to the wedding Erica knew the right questions to ask to determine what was most important to us. Not only is Erica awesome to work with but her team is as well- I couldn't have imagined a better photography and videography team! Josh (photos) and Mace (video) went above and beyond- they made us laugh and guided us on poses that we wouldn't have thought to do. They were very engaging and creative in their shots and made it easy! We will forever cherish the moments they captured and I can see why Emerald Stone is voted top 5% in the US.

Couldn't be happier!

My husband and I can't say enough great things about the Emerald Stone team. We were on the fence about hiring a wedding videographer originally as it can be such a huge expense, but 2 months before our wedding we decided to just go for it and started searching for a videographer in our budget. After comparing 5-6 companies, Emerald Stone came in at the best price with the package we were wanting. The videos they produced far exceeded our expectations and perfectly captured our day- we can't stop watching them! What made it even better was the quick but thorough planning meetings we had with Erica that helped assure us that we were in good hands. We know this will be a family heirloom we will look back on for many years to come. If you're on the fence about a videographer- hire Emerald Stone, you won't be disappointed!

The Best Day Ever and most amazing team to capture it!

Emerald Stone was on our venue’s preferred list and when I contacted them, I gave them a desired budget and they were able to work with us to stay within our budget while still creating an amazing contract. Throughout the process the owner Erica was very helpful to check in and offer additional deals, updates, and reminders. We met our lead photographer James at our free engagement shoot and instantly connected with him. The rest of the wedding day team Kham, Alisha, and Maya were an absolute joy to work with as well with their kindness and exceptional work ethic. We just received our sneak peeks and can’t wait to see the rest of the photography and videography, what we have seen so far has wowed us! Highly, highly recommend investing in this team for photography, they helped give us the best wedding day and are worth every penny!

Emerald Stone made our wedding more magical

The owner Erica was super nice and responsive to all our questions. She was patient with us and worked around our schedule. She hired an awesome team. Brian and James were our photographers, they were AMAZING! Brian made me feel like top priority. He would say it’s all up to the bride. I appreciate him for making my big day feel even more special. We received our sneak peaks and they turned out GORGEOUS! We can’t wait for the other photos!

Absolute Perfection!

I don’t think I could ever say enough amazing things about the Emrald Stone team honestly! Erica is absolutely phenomenal and she really is the most professional, kind, and honest person. Being a bride and planning your own wedding can be so stressful but Erica made it feel like talking to your best friend during the planning process. She really is just a dream. Fast forward to my wedding day & Scott was an absolute dream to work with as well! His knowledge of my venue space and understanding of my vision mixed together to become the most unbelievable experience I could’ve ever asked for. He was so sweet, so attentive, and paid attention to every single detail I requested to ensure my photos came to life in the most magical way. I genuinely appreciate this team more than anything and I am BEYOND thrilled that they were apart of my big day. They added a sense of peace and comfort to my day that made my opportunities to enjoy it that much greater. If this is the team you’re considering for your photography or videography, please just trust me & book the date!!!

Very Professional Service

Emerald Stone was great to work with and I would definitely recommend their service. They were very professional throughout the whole process. They were attentive and accommodating to my specific requests, and gave very quick responses. They even turned around my sneak peek photos earlier than expected because I was so excited to see them! They also shared all of the raw footage with me when I asked for it, in addition to the edited videos.

Can’t recommend enough!

We just got married in October of 2025 and used Emerald Stone for everything from our engagement photos to wedding day photography and videography. We had a great experience with all of the Emerald Stone team members on the day of - we really feel like they went above and beyond for us! Erica did a great job at keeping us updated throughout the entire process and was always there to answer any questions we had. We got our sneak peeks back and they made us so excited to see the rest of the album!!

Perfect Videography from Start to Finish

Zach from Emerald Stone Photography was absolutely amazing. He was our videographer on our wedding day and we could not have asked for anyone better. From the start, the team at Emerald Stone, including Erica, the CEO, was wonderful to work with. We first met Erica at a wedding event at Turf Valley Resort, the venue we chose, and she was so helpful in guiding us through the planning process and answering all of our questions.

On the day of the wedding, Zach was incredible. He was attentive, flexible, and had such a great sense of humor, which made the day even more fun and relaxed. He captured every important moment perfectly and made us feel completely comfortable in front of the camera. A few days ago we received our highlight video, and it is brilliant. It captured the day so perfectly and truly reflects all the love, joy, and special moments we experienced.

We are so grateful to Zach and the Emerald Stone team for creating such beautiful and lasting memories of our wedding. They went above and beyond to make our day special, and we could not recommend them more.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
