Janice Sent on 10/31/2023Elle is a rockstar!
Elle is an absolute ROCKSTAR! We had an amazing experience working with her on our special day. If I had the chance, I would relive the entire day just to have her as our photographer once more. She excels in every aspect. Elle kept us informed throughout the entire planning process and provided a detailed timeline that greatly assisted in our preparation. Her mastery of her craft is truly impressive!
Despite the chaos of a wedding day, Elle handled everything with grace, ensuring we felt completely at ease. When we received our final photos and video, they went above and beyond our expectations. It was like reliving the moment, and I couldn’t help but shed tears of joy! -

From the moment we e-met Elle, we know that we had to with her as the photographer for our Disney wedding (with come with some unique challenges). The team arrived bright and early at 3 AM with big smiles and great energy. We are a camera shy couple and we felt so comfortable. She is a great hype woman BTW!
Our photos, video, and behind-the-scenes footage are amazing. But most of all, Elle & Bishop captured the joy and love of the day so well. We can't wait to get these photos on our wall and share them for generations to come! We can't thank y'all enough💕 -

A truly amazing and talented team! We were so thankful Elle was available for our date, March 14th, for both photography and videography, and she was also very personable and excited 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! -

If you’re looking for an organized, hard-working, and personable photographer for your Central Florida wedding, definitely book with Captured by Elle! Elle and her second photographer 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.

Elle is the best! So organized and enthusiastic about her work, the care and passion she puts into it is apparent in every interaction and of course in the photos! Elle did our engagement 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!! -

Alexandra Sent on 11/23/2020A team that captures all the magic!
We had the absolute pleasure of spending our wedding day with Elle & Bishop, a dynamic duo team of photo & video perfection! These two were a dream to work with, they felt like our 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!! -

Well done photography can be so magical that it makes you feel transported back to the day of the event, and that’s exactly what Elle’s photography does. Not only is her work incredible, but she also has the personality to match!
I have to give a fair warning before continuing the review because it is going to be a long one for sure. There is so much to share about the experience so I tend to write long reviews because I genuinely want to express what it was like to work with a vendor so that others looking for services don’t have to feel the same type of anxiety I do when I worry about making the right choice. And let me tell you, Elle (Captured by Elle Photo + Video) was DEFINITELY the RIGHT CHOICE! We could feel it from the moment we had our first skype session to discuss what we were looking for in a wedding photographer.
From the moment we started planning our wedding, we knew that we wanted to wait until we found the right photographer instead of just settling for the first one we came across. My husband and I, like practically every person we know, are not used to being in front of a camera, so naturally we were worried about feeling awkward and that awkward coming through in the pictures. Awkwardness is the last thing we wanted to experience the day of our wedding.
Anyway, we came across Elle’s Instagram after looking through several different Instagram accounts of photographers in the Orlando area. Elle’s work speaks for itself and her talent as a photographer really shines through her work. We kept scrolling through her images and honestly could not find fault of any kind. The love could be felt in all the images—the love the couples feel for one another and the love Elle feels for what she does for a living.
What’s really great about Elle’s services is that you get an engagement session included in the package you choose, so we used that as an opportunity to get a feel for what the day of the wedding was going to be like. We were so nervous the day of our engagement shoot because we really did not know what to expect. But once we finally met Elle in person, it felt like meeting up with an old friend at the park. She gave us a quick run though of what to expect and told us to just be ourselves. Told us that she would give us queues on how to stand to make the photos look great and to just have fun with it. And that is exactly what we did. We had so much fun! I can’t remember when the last time was we laughed as much as we had on that day, especially during these crazy times. Elle is truly, truly talented! I cannot emphasize this enough! She has such an eye for detail and did such a wonderful job capturing both of our personalities so well that it really did not feel awkward at all.
Our wedding was exactly a month and a day ago on October 17th, 2020 and thanks to Elle and her incredible team, we get to relive that sweet day every time we look at the pictures. And trust me, I am so obsessed with the outcome that I find myself looking through the photos often. Because of Covid, many of our family members and friends were not able to attend. But thanks to Elle, a lot of them have expressed that they feel as if they were part of our day because they can feel the love come through in each of the photos. And let me not get started on how amazing the wedding video came out! I could go on for days raving about every last detail that Elle and her team managed to capture and stitch together so wonderfully. Down to the ending that could not have been more perfect had I picked it out myself. The word perfection really does it no justice. I find myself getting emotional every time I watch it. The kind of emotional that makes you so happy to be alive because you didn’t know it was possible to experience such joy and love through a video.
We will forever be grateful for Elle and her team. The experience was unbelievably magical and thanks to them we can share it with our friends and family during these hard times to spread the joy we felt the day of. If you’re looking for someone who is truly passionate about what she does with a quality of work that is absolutely unmatchable, look no further.

Elle is literally the best. On my day, it was supposed to be 80% chance of rain, my maid of honor texted her about 45 min before she was supposed to get there, and she got there early and swapped everything so we could do the first look and pictures before the rain started. She got every shot I wanted plus all of the ones I threw in at the last minute. She quickly becomes a great friend and support day of, the best vendor I could’ve asked for. If you have any doubts, don’t. She’s the best. -

Patti F. Sent on 11/05/2019Amazing one stop shop for photo and video
Elle and her team were incredible from start to finish! The photos and video turned out amazing. So many of the photos look like they could be the cover of a magazine (I have even 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. -

Bri A. Sent on 06/13/2019Phenomenal Photographer!
We had an absolute blast working with Elle! We were fist introduced to Elle by our wedding planner. After checking out her website we decided we just had to set up a meeting. From the moment we met her I felt at ease and like I could already call her family. We spent an hour talking about the proposal and our nerdy themed wedding plans. We discussed pricing and the typical process that we could expect to encounter. We were super impressed at the level of personalized attention we received from her even prior to booking.
We did an engagement session as part of our package and the pictures we received turned out incredible! Leading up to the appointment Elle reached out to discuss location and even provided various tip and tricks to help make the session go smoothly. She even offered to give suggestions on our attire. Due to complications we had to reschedule our session, but Elle was with us every step of the way. The day of our shoot the weather decided to throw us a curve ball and it rained all day. Elle worked with us to quickly find an alternative indoor location so we wouldn’t miss our chance. She helped coach us through the poses and encouraged us to relax and have fun. We had such a great time and it really shows in our pictures!
On the day of our wedding Elle showed up right on time and got to work. She has an amazing eye for detail and lighting and makes every shot amazing. As the day’s events unfolded it truly felt as thought Elle and Jerzy weren’t there to just capture our moments but to experience them with us as well. When we received the gallery teaser from Elle, we were blown away at how amazing everything looked.
Elle is a fantastic photographer and an incredible individual. You can’t ask for better than her. -

Elle and her team are amazing! Elle is 100 percent an above and beyond photographer. Our engagement session was included when we booked Elle for our wedding date. We had mentioned we wanted to include our two small pups in our session. Elle sent over some tips and tricks for including pets in your photo sessions, so we were able to prepare ahead of time. She was so patient and kind trying to get our crazy dogs to look at the camera! The photos came out absolutely stunning. We even used a few of the photos for our Save the Dates! A few months later, our sweet doggie boy, Louis, passed away. We were so grateful to have had professional photos with him to treasure forever. Elle and our wedding planner Carly were incredibly thoughtful and selected two of our favorite photos with Louis and sent them to us with their condolences. When they showed up, we were so surprised and grateful. He was such an important party of our family.
Fast forward to our wedding, this past March. We had a sleeping beauty theme and we really wanted the photos to have a fairy tale/ storybook feel. Elle completely got us. She has such an eye for the perfect locations and lighting. She and Jerzy captured the most magical photos. Elle also guides you on posing and helps the photos look completely natural as well. Elle and Jerzy connected with us on a personal level, so we felt completely at ease with them the entire time. When we saw the preview of our wedding photos, we were in awe. They were beyond my wildest dreams!
If you are looking for a dynamic, fun, professional photographer, Elle is your girl. She is truly what we would describe as above and beyond. -

Amazing as always!
I knew Elle from working with her professionally as a wedding photographer. Lets say she is amazing from the get go. From the start of my own wedding day to the end, she is fabulous 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! -

Christina Sent on 12/16/2017You need to seriosly consider Elle! Elle and her team were so easy, upbeat, and amazing to work with. They will even coach you on how to angle your body, where to put your hand, etc. 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 thrilled with your pictures, videos and wedding day experience if you choose Captured by Elle.
