Captured By Elle Photo + Video

ellent staff and was available for any questions I had through the planning process. We had a meeting prior to the wedding to discuss my photo/video priorities and she was sure to capture all of the important moments beautifully. Most essential was how amazing Elle and her team were on the day of the wedding. She kept us organized and on track. She had no problem managing the wedding party and family (respectfully and politely) to ensure all of my requested photos were taken. She and her team were a joy to work with and be around on our wedding day (huge for this bride!) and they all did a great job working with nervous groom. Most importantly, Captured by Elle delivered beautiful work and stunning photographs and a beautiful wedding video that will be treasured forever. I highly recommend Elle and her team for any of your wedding photography/videography needs.

ed about our Disney wedding day. We inquired later about adding an extra hour to cover Stitch’s appearance, and it wasn’t a problem at all. However, due to an emergency, another photographer from her team, Alisha, came in her place alongside videographer Bishop and assistant Cesar - everyone was so on-point and amazing to work with. And that turnaround time though?? Got married on March 14th, got the video back on April 5th, and all 835 of our pictures on April 13th!

ning and we will cherish them forever. Can’t recommend Elle enough!!

m our ceremony site. Professional, creative, and fun. I didn't have to worry about anything!!! So happy she was a part of our day!

ant photographer were kind, professional, and did amazing work. You will not regret booking her!!

gave little direction as we wanted more natural footage captured and we are super exited to receive our photos and video. Thank you so much Elle and all your team. You made the whole process so easy and our day was one we will never forget x

l the photos we wanted! We just received our photos back and are completely blown away with all of the beautiful shoots! Our wedding video is amazing as well! We are so excited to order photos and display them! You are in the best hands when you hire Elle and her team!

ding video only 3 days after the wedding and it’s just beautiful. They did such a great job, I couldn’t have imagined it any better. Such a fabulous team!

r wedding will be captured in a way that you love. She makes you feel comfortable if camera shy, and checks in about your insecurities while still maintaining her professionalism. She’s also incredibly fun just to be around. Our wedding planner was a bit lackluster, and Elle stepped up to ensure we did everything we wanted to do on our day and that every single one of those moments was captured. For fellow LGBTQ couples: Elle is extremely inclusive and uses gender and sexuality affirming language, including a wonderful statement on her website and devoted section on her blog. We hired Elle for our engagement photos, shower photos, boudoir photos, wedding photos, and honeymoon photos and we really can’t recommend her highly enough. She’s worth every penny.

o comfortable suring our enegagement shoot and the wedding day ... we couldn't have been more comfortable. Our wedding day video ... WOW. She captured everything we remembered about that day, and we are so extremely happy that we have such a reminder of how perfect our day was. Not to mention her and her team were so much FUN. We joked, we laughed until it hurt, and she catches all of our genuine moments. Thank you so much, Elle! You are the best!!

agement photos at Disney's Boardwalk, and when we researched photographers for our Chicago wedding, we decided to choose Elle. Despite travel costs (which were incredibly reasonable!) Captured by Elle was one of the most bang-for-our-buck options compared to the Chicagoland people we researched. We got 2 photographers (Jersey is amazing as well! Super chill and professional!) and over a thousand amazing photos from our wedding and hundreds from our engagement session. Our engagement session was on a super cold and windy day, and Elle was totally down to re-schedule last-minute, which was awesome. We ended up going ahead despite the wind, and they worked with it so well - Jersey let me wear his coat between photos because it was so cold! Before the wedding, she took us through the timeline of the day, which was super helpful and put us at ease knowing how organized she is. During the wedding, they kept everything running smoothly and on time without making us feel rushed. They made us feel so happy and comfortable the whole time. The photo quality speaks for itself. Thanks, Elle and Jersey!!

pher Jerzy make you feel completely comfortable if being photographed is not something you’re used to. She manages her team with such professionalism and sets you and your bridal party up to highlight all your best angles! Wherever you and your new spouse are, Elle is close behind-we never worried about her missing any “big moments”. We’re thrilled with the quality and authentic photographs she took. Elle has been extremely supportive and empathetic towards all of her “covid” couples which just shows how much she cares about each of her clients. If you’re considering a video for your wedding, Elle’s team is the way to go since her photographers and videographers work seamlessly together. We’re so grateful for our video already because friends and family who could not attend feel like they were there with how well her videographers, Bishop and Reuben, captured and edited the footage from our day. You will spend more time with your photographer than any of your other wedding vendors, and Elle’s outgoing and kindhearted personality made it feel like we had a friend who just happened to be a fantastic photographer hanging out with us on our wedding day! Look no further for your wedding photo and video team.

apher. We’re not the worlds most naturally photogenic humans in the world but we instantly felt comfortable and at ease. She did a fantastic job of helping us feel confident in the poses and while we only have the previews so far we’re so thrilled with not only the experience, but the results as well. I CANNOT wait for the rest of our engagement shoot and knowing how at ease she was able to make us feel makes me that much more excited to see how our photos and videos on our actual big day turn out. Words don’t do justice to how happy I am that we picked her, 10 out of 10 would recommend. Update: I’m reviewing, again. I reviewed right after my engagement shoot and couldn’t rave enough about Elle. We’ve since had her as our wedding day photographer and her crew was our videographer. I cannot say enough positive things about Elle and her crew. Not only did they make us feel totally at ease, they were professional, efficient, and honestly a lot of fun to be around! I cannot recommend her enough! If you’re on the fence I’m telling you you won’t regret going with Elle. Our photos are beautiful and they were a joy to have at the wedding as well. Another update: When we got our engagement shoot done I promptly came on to review and rave about Elle. Then when we had our wedding we got our photos and couldn’t believe how amazing they came out. So, I promptly came on to update my review and rave about Elle and her crew. So, understandably, after receiving our wedding video, I promptly came on to, again, rave about Elle and her crew. We haven’t stopped watching the video (or looking at our photos for that matter). Between the two it truly feels like we’re reliving the best day of our lives. It’s a true gift and was by far the best investment we made for our big day.

friends and we were so comfortable with them. Their creativity, fresh ideas & upbeat personalities are everything we hoped for and having already received a photo preview and our wedding film feature, we were blown away by the shots and footage captured. For a day that goes by quickly, we feel like we can relive those moments through the beautiful breathtaking work of Elle & Bishop. We feel like we got such great variety and different perspectives of photo and video which is really exciting to see. Our communication was great leading up to the day and on the day. Planning an out of state wedding during a pandemic, we were able to connect with Elle multiple times which was great. From masks to transportation to following covid guidelines, these two had our backs and caught all the right moments. We truly cannot speak highly enough and recommend this team enough!!

tures couldn’t possibly measure up. Our pictures are GORGEOUS, they’re better than our engagement pictures. Other than the quality of the work Elle and her team provide, they’re so much fun. If you’re going to get followed around by 4 people with cameras all day, these are the people you want. They brought energy, jokes, made sure we were comfortable, and were all about what we wanted captured. I’d hire Elle again in a heart beat, no hesitation.

d on showing up early and moved around our first look so we could get pictures before it did rain. She got pictures of all the key moments and made sure she was available for all of the extra ones I threw at her last minute. I knew my photographer wasn't something I wanted to skimp on, and Elle was everything I wanted and could've asked for. The best vendor on my wedding day. If you have any doubts, reach out to her and ask questions! She's the best!

n had a magazine approach me wanting to use the photos, still have to talk to her about that!) The video looks like it could be a movie on the big screen. It's so beautiful. She truly captured every important moment, every important detail, every important person. She also went above and beyond in helping me with other aspects related to my wedding, such as helping me work out the schedule for the big day. She knows SO much about weddings in general, not only the photo/video end. She is super fun to work with, making us feel at ease even though we are not used to being photographed and are sort of awkward. Her entire team was so cool, I just totally felt at ease with them and their combined efforts made for fantastic products in the end. It was very important to us as a couple the photos and video didn't come out overly-cheesy, as so many wedding photos and videos do, but they came out great. Authentically sentimental. No cheese whatsoever. And it was also a huge weight off my mind that she handled both our photography and videography, so that was one less vendor to find! I love her so much I'm thinking of excuses to hire her again. If you're having a Disney wedding or wedding in the Orlando area, I wouldn't look any further.

s and will make you feel and look amazing. She is also very easy to work with and super chill. We got our teasers from her and we couldn't be more ecstatic. You're GOING to be in good hands if you choose her and her team!

ctacular. Let’s take it a step back to researching and choosing. When we discovered Elle through our online research, we checked out her webpage and was very impressed with its layout and the sample photos/videos in the archive. Based on that, we decided to reach out to her to confirm pricing and discuss what came in the package. Since we live in New York and our wedding was taking place in Orlando, Elle suggested we FaceTime each other so we can talk through things and get a feel for each other. This was unique to us and allowed us to gravitate towards her more because of the connection and her interest in making things personal. Other vendors we reached out to either sent us a pricing package or directed us to their website, so it was difficult to feel that connection with them. From the moment we first spoke, Elle felt like family. She walked us through the typical process, pricing and we even exchanged phone numbers, so we could text her at any time with questions or to give her updates on our planning. The decision was made. And it was one of the best decisions we made for our big day. Although Elle was super busy with multiple events most of the time, she made it her duty to always respond to us. Whatever we needed, she was there. On our wedding day, she was prompt and to the minute. Through speaking to her beforehand, she understood all our family dynamics and was able to move accordingly on the wedding day to ensure there were no awkward situations/interactions. She also understood our Caribbean background and knew what to expect for how lively our reception was going to be. Her eye for the camera proved to be special. If one of us were even slightly out of alignment in a photo, she would catch it and adjust. We took the appropriate amounts of portraits with each other and our families, and the team did their job without stopping the fun at the reception. We truly want to thank Elle and her team for all their hard work and making us feel special. Elle didn’t feel like a photographer on our wedding day, but more like a friend. Absolutely consider her and her team for any photography and videography needs, and rest assured you won’t be disappointed.

nd more. She somehow turned a rainy gloomy outside set into sunshine with her edits. I don’t know how she did it but we were so pleased with her work. She remained professional and worked with us for 2 years. Day or wedding she provided photo and video and kept to the schedule minute by minute. We were referred by another couple and couldn’t be happier with our choice. Thank you Elle ! Look forward to our final product from our July 7 wedding !

ing personality and is so easy to work with. Elle throws in the engagement session in most of her packages and we highly recommend it because me and my husband are terrible picture takers, but Elle made us look like pros! She helped teach us how to pose and just get to know us in general. It totally helped us be more prepared and relaxed on the wedding day. She is great at being in the forefront when she needs to (such as when corraling family members for portraits) and fading into the background when she needs to (such as during the ceremony). We had two shooters and Elle and her assistant worked very well together to capture all the angles. Elle is very good at making sure the package you get fits with your wants and needs and to stay within your budget, but believe me, whatever package you choose, she is worth every penny! Its only been a few weeks since the wedding but we've already got a handful of sneak peak photos and we love them, we can't wait to see the rest. She made us look like models! We can't recommend Elle and her team enough, her photos are top notch, she comes extremely prepared and organized, and she'll leave you wondering if its acceptable to become friends with your vendors after your wedding.

c. which is exactly the help my husband and I needed. I cried when I first saw our "sneak peak" photos- they made us look like polished super models. Elle is willing to work with you and help you stick to your budget. We could not afford the whole package as advertised for photo and video, and she first, found out what was important to us, and from there, helped customize a photo/video package that would contain the items we valued most, while helping us stay within budget. Also, Elle and her team seemed to magically blend in-they were very respectful and unobtrusive even during the ceremony, while still capturing those priceless memories. I love how "at ease" she made us and all our guests feel. You will be ecstatic with your pictures, videos and wedding day if you choose Captured by Elle.

of your special day was a very big deal for us which is why we took such a long time researching for someone. Finally we came across Elle and we knew she would be the right fit. She and her partner made us feel so comfortable that we forgot they were even there. They were so amazing at blending in and capturing all the moments we were looking for. The video is absolutely more than we could have hoped for!

eature film. Elle is so personable, friendly, honest and artistic. Elle invited us to meet at her office to discuss our expectations involving the cinematography as well as go over some of the details regarding our wedding. She immediately made us feel comfortable. Elle was able to get a sense of exactly what we were looking for in capturing our special day. We were completely confident in her creative expertise and granted her total artistic freedom on how to best film every moment. As soon as Elle and Vidal arrived on the day of our wedding, they made us feel so relaxed and treated us like family. They began capturing every detail of our wedding day preparations and gift exchange. Elle and Vidal worked so professionally with our photographer and our other vendors too. They expertly recorded our entire ceremony using great camera angles and high-quality microphones for our priest, my wife and myself to obtain excellent audio and video of the ceremony and our vows. They filmed footage from our transport to the church and to our wedding venue. They even filmed while we took photos on beautiful Church Street in downtown Orlando and during our room reveal. Elle and Vidal worked diligently and were with us every step of the way! Every single moment was meticulously captured, including our special dances, surprise moments during the reception and even our sparkler send-off at the end of the evening. They even recorded a surprise song performance I dedicated to my wife! They completely immersed themselves into their work and it showed. They truly captured the heartbeat and feel of our entire wedding celebration! Once we saw the highlight videos as well as our full feature film, we were BLOWN AWAY! We truly loved them! It felt so amazing to relive every single moment of the best day of our lives! Through their amazing creative talents, they were able to weave such a beautiful tapestry of art and storytelling with their unique cinematographic touch and outstanding editing! My wife Vivian and I are so incredibly thankful for Elle and Vidal’s tremendous work and dedication on our videos. They really put their heart and soul into what they do. Because of them, we will always be able to cherish these memories for a lifetime! Do yourself a favor and hire Elle to handle your photography and/or cinematography. Then, you can personally experience the high quality of work, artistic creativity and customer service, which will EXCEED YOUR EXPECTATIONS!

easure to work with. Elle and her team are the entire package. Our engagement session was a blast; from learning to pose to getting to know each other a little better. Elle does amazing work to grasp how “as a couple” we moved, pictured, and blended together. As our wedding day approached, she gave us some great words of advice to prepare. Elle and her team were there to capture all the moments of our wedding (photography and videography) and in the mist enjoying the dancing and food alongside all of our guest. Elle was not only a photographer for our wedding she has become a friend throughout the process and we will continue to keep in touch with her for future picture perfect days! Thank you Elle :)

th our engagement photos and from what I've seen in our wedding preview photos. Elle made us feel so comfortable in front of the camera and completely listened to us in every sense - from the types of photos we prefer, to how to deal with those certain family members who aren't into getting their pictures taken! She's so easy to work with, so sweet, and truly cares about her clients. During our wedding, there was a complete downpour and she and her team were right in the middle of it, with a smile on their face and rain soaking them up! They never once acted like the rain would slow their work down or get in their way. I am so appreciative of Elle and her crew for that because it made me feel more at ease with the crazy weather!

meant the world to me and translate the love that James and I share visually. Elle is an amazing artist. It was such a joy to work with all of her crew members. Vidal the videographer was so much fun, had awesome looking equipment, and had an amazing smile. I cannot wait to see my wedding video. Justin, the second photographer, captured the details, and made sure my groom, and groomsmen were taken care of. The team works so well together, it was like they were dancing. I am so happy I went with Elle and her team to capture one of the most important days of my life. Not only have I met my favorite photographer but I've also made a real friend. I want to say thank you to Elle and to everyone that was involved in capturing my moments with James. I love you! To anyone reading this review, do not hesitate, book her now! She is worth every penny that you spend and so much more.

pher. He not only took great videos of the wedding but all the while he actually enjoyed taking the videos! He always had a smile on his face and had enthusiasm for being part of our day. Thanks to Elle's coaching, all of the pictures came out perfect =) There were so many things that happened at the wedding that I didn't even know or remember happened because it was such a crazy day; but the pictures helped us bring together everything that took place on our wedding day. We got the picture with video package which was reasonably priced for our budget and included everything that we wanted. All of the extra stuff that we requested (more video and picture time) was also affordable. Elle worked hard to accommodate our requests and ensure that all our memories were captured perfectly. Thank you for being there right at the beginning when Jose and I (Zee) met and being our photographer. We definitely would recommend you to our friends, in fact I've had a few people request your info =)

t along 60+ of our nearest and dearest! Our biggest concern was that if we hired someone for just the venue, we'd miss all the ship pics and all the fun that was had along the way! Elle and her crew (her awesome husband) agreed to come for the entire voyage and change venues as we went along. The final pics were great and she knew just how to corral/direct our folks. I'm very pleased with the end result and she had the final pics ready for us before my friend (who got married 2 weeks before me) even had her sneak peek from her photographer! We had the prelim sneak peek a week and a half after the wedding! I am going to stop before I break the exclamation key right off my keyboard!!!

edding and engagement photos at Rollins but they look like two completely different places. She makes you feel comfortable and is just awesome to work with! Can't wait to work with her in the future!!

she gets over capturing the perfect shots. I knew from our very first email communication that she was going to be great to work with. One of my favorite things about her is her quick response time. She never went longer than a day before getting back to us. Also, I couldn’t believe how fast she had our pictures ready, both our engagement session and our wedding photos. She is super organized, and made sure to capture every moment that we noted as important to us. I absolutely loved every photo she took. She has the best eye, and catches everything! We felt comfortable with her right away, and nothing felt forced which made for great photos! Elle is so smooth that we completely forgot she was snapping pictures in the background. She worked well with our other vendors, also. I would highly recommend her to anyone. She knows what she is doing, and we will definitely be using her again in the future. She is the best!

Elle!

ments I requested. Thank you Elle!

e any of her work, or give her any of our input. She came in blind, and vice versa.A bit nerve wracking as a controlling bride, but it was also nice to give her the professional freedom and let her do her thing. She jumped right in, and captured moments we didn't even realize were happening! She was very friendly, and played her role as 2nd photographer perfect! We loved our main photographer, but should we ever need her services again, I would be 100% confident in the outcome!Great work, Great eye, and a pleasure to work with! Thank you so much! L&N

creative. I couldn't have asked for a better photographer! She made us so comfortable and was so sneaky, I didn't even notice she was there while she took photos which is a sign of a great photographer. She took all the shots I wanted and even added in some very creative ones of her own. She was professional, friendly, and her prices were unbeatable. If you use her you will not be disappointed!
