Elisha and Mike are the best!

From the first time we contacted Field Gems Photography, through the day we received our pictures after the wedding, the entire process was smooth and stress-free! Elisha and Mike are talented, prepared, organized, and thoughtful. We had great communication getting prepared for and on the big day. They captured hundreds of great moments from our wedding day, and really brought a great energy to our wedding. I think one of my favorite moments was when, at our ceremony rehearsal, we surprisingly bumped into Elisha, who was there on her own scouting the venue ahead of time. So thorough! We could not be more happy with our photos, which we will cherish forever. I have nothing but good things to say about Elisha and Mike and we feel so lucky to have had them capture our wedding day. I recommend them 100%!

Must Hire!

Elisha is a must for all your photography needs! As a Coordinator I look for quality, value, responsiveness and professionalism of course, and Elisha nails it on all those areas... but we also look for personality, kindness, collaboration and community, and Elisha is a great human. We loved working with her at our couple's wedding, she was a joy through and through and we can't wait to work with her again soon!

Authentic Emotion!

Elisha shot our tiki-themed wedding shower at Lost River tiki bar in Detroit. Because my sister arranged the shower, we had not met Elisha before the event. However, Elisha instantly put us at ease with her kind, easy-going, and confident personality. She captured some amazing, natural candid images of us and our guests. Even the more "posed" pics felt and looked natural! Though the bar was really dark, Elisha was able to strike a great balance with lighting and you can't tell how dark the space actually was from the pictures. We got the edited event images really quickly and in an easy-to-use online album. I can't say enough good things about Field Gems! If you want beautiful photos with authentic emotion, Field Gems rock!

Absolutely wonderful photos and lovely photographers!

Elisha and Mike are fantastic. They are kind, genuine, and so lovely to be around.

We are absolutely thrilled with our photos. We wanted a lot of candid shots and that is exactly what we got. The photos are absolutely gorgeous. We highly recommend working with Field Gems Photography!

Phenomenal Photography with Sincere Sweet Folks

Elisha and Mike were an absolute joy to work with! I had met them at a wedding convention and was drawn to the beautiful photo-journalistic style. After learning how Elisha has grown up around photography and reviewing more of their work, I was confident I wanted Field Gems Photography for my wedding!

We got married at the Royal Oak Music Theatre and the Events Director had warned us to give photographers a heads up about darker venues. Elisha sent me a few samples of some of the darker venues as I saw a lot of outdoor photos online. I had a longer engagement (~1.5 years) and got a lot of the initial planning done right away. However, that didn't mean they forgot about me up until the month of the wedding. Throughout the entire planning process, Elisha and Mike were very responsive. Very sincere people :)

During the actual wedding day, Elisha and Mike were phenomenal. !! They made us and our guests feel at ease. Things were well planned and so many great candid shots were captured. I'm so happy with all of the photos from our special day.

If you're thinking about booking Field Gems Photography, you won't be disappointed!

We found Field Gems Photography when they shot wedding photos for my husband's cousin's wedding. We loved there style and found that they took so many beautiful pictures. From the start they were incredibly helpful and attentive. They absolutely went above and beyond. Elisha and Mike were worth every penny. Both of them were there to help make sure our day was the most special. They helped us stay on our schedule and even had the cutest clear umbrella ready at any moment during our ceremony, as we had clouds, rain and sun all through our ceremony. Both Elisha and Mike are very personable, professional and were great with names when it came to pictures with our bridal party and family! My husband and I highly recommend Field Gems Photography to any couple looking for the perfect wedding photographs. We received so many beautiful pictures and we couldn't be more happy with our experience.

Elisha and Mike are such kind and warm people and phenomenal photographers, I cannot imagine having had anyone else photograph our wedding day! Elisha went above and beyond helping me figure out the schedule for the day and always checked in to make sure I was feeling calm and happy throughout the day of the wedding. Multiple members of our wedding party told us Elisha and Mike made a point to say goodbye to them before they left the reception and complimented how genuine and nice of people they were. If you are looking for talented photographers who also happen to be great people who you are truly glad are apart of your day, look no further than Mike and Elisha :-). I loved my engagement photos and can't wait to see my wedding photos! I would highly recommend Field Gems Photography to anyone looking for a wedding photographer.

Elisha and Mike are the best! We hired them to photograph our wedding this spring and were beyond happy with every aspect of their work – from the time and effort they put into getting to know their clients to their warm, easy-going personalities to the beautiful photos that perfectly captured our wedding day. They took the time to get to know my fiancé and me, asking about our history as a couple, our families, and the little details we were most excited about on our wedding day. They were incredibly patient with us as we sent email after email, trying to navigate the ins and outs of our wedding plans. They were attentive, organized, and professional – scouting locations, helping set timelines, and responding to each email promptly and thoroughly. They exude warmth and love – we had comments from multiple wedding guests about how much they enjoyed our photographers and how seamlessly they fit into our day. Their easy-going personalities did a lot to calm our nerves and help us to look happy and natural in the photos. And finally, I cannot say enough about the pictures they took. They captured so many special moments and their photos really helped tell the story of our day. We would absolutely recommend Field Gems Photography to anyone who asked.
We're all about trust. Our community relies on honest reviews to help you make those big decisions with ease.
