Who am I?

Oh, hi, thanks for visiting! I’m Elle, a Wedding Content Creator and the founder of Candidly Caught. I’m London based and capture UK & destination weddings.

I’ve been in content creation for over five years and when a friend asked me to use my creative and content skills to capture her big day I was ecstatic, and Candidly Caught was born!

I mostly film on iPhone using a state of the art DJI Gimbal (to keep steady & get the best angles) but I also use a genuine 2000’s camcorder to capture memories through that nostalgic, grainy lens.

Venue and weather permitting, I also capture stunning shots from the sky with one of the newest drones on the market (DJI Mini 4 Pro).

I adore weddings and love nothing more than celebrating love with my couples and hyping them up- all the way from those tingly moments of pre-ceremony nerves, to partying away with your favourite people surrounding you on the dance floor.

For more examples of my work, head to @candidly.caught on Instagram.

The days of sitting around a DVD player watching hours of wedding footage are over (phew!), but sometimes, photos aren’t quite enough to capture the whole moment. I capture the candid, natural, BTS moments of your big day, creating tailored and unique videos for you to cherish forever.

Your fully curated wedding video will be in your hands within 72 hours, and I also provide you with the entire suite of raw footage from the day within 48 hours, so you can relive every moment from the POV of a guest, sound and all.

Think of me as your personal paparazzi, cheerleader and substitute BFF whilst yours is unplugged and off duty for the day!

"If you’re looking for a content creator, you have to hire Elle! She has a talent for creating beautiful and natural content, she produced an amazing video of our wedding that truly captured all of the key moments from our day. It is so special to have this as a wedding keepsake and we haven’t stopped watching it, even 3 months on! Elle also has a great personality, fantastic professionalism and blends in with the wedding guests so well. When it comes to communication - she is super responsive and nothing is too much effort for her."

"Elle provides such an amazing service, she attended our wedding on the 11th August and has created the most spectacular and tear inducing video for us to treasure forever. Everyone commented on how lovely she was, and how she blended in with the guests. The Google Drive is something we will treasure forever, and seeing the 100’s of videos Elle took of the day was just like a trip down memory lane, and also allowed us to relive some parts that we hadn’t taken notice of or were not involved in! Thank you so much Elle, you are wonderful!!

"Just wow! Elle captured our wedding on 17th August and we are beyond grateful that she did! From start to finish, she was faultless. Elle is so friendly and enthusiastic and made everyone feel so comfortable- she integrated well alongside our photographer and all of our guests commented on how great she was! We originally just had a photographer booked for our wedding and hadn’t really considered a content creator. If I can give one bit of advice to future couples I’d say book Elle to capture your day. Having an amazing video to look back on within such a sort timeframe was one of our highlights. We had an amazing day and immediately wanted to re-live it all over again- the video Elle made for us, alongside all of the captured content, has allowed us to do this over and over! We can’t thank you enough Elle, thank you for making our day that extra bit special x"

"I was unsure at first about having a content creator given it was relatively new to me as a concept and the only people I’d seen use them were ‘influencers’… On reflection, I can wholeheartedly say it is one of the BEST decisions I made when planning my wedding! Elle was an absolute dream to work with and has given me memories to look back on & cherish forever. I wanted to have video footage of my day however hadn’t booked a videographer due to (a) the high cost and (b) the style of cinematic, dramatic videos I’d seen weren’t really what I was looking for. I wanted a candid, laid back, fun video which captured the essence and feel of the day - exactly as we and our guests experienced it. Elle nailed the brief and delivered above and beyond what we’d hoped for. The video she put together was amazing from the first attempt - no changes were needed as she totally understood what I wanted. To top it off, having the entire google drive of videos she’d taken throughout the day gave us such a unique ‘behind the scenes’ look at how our guests experienced the day. Not only were the videos amazing, but she is the most wonderful person, so much fun to have there on the day and just totally blended in. She also got in touch with our photographer beforehand so they could agree how best to work together. (P.S. My husband, who I must admit was very sceptical about my wish to have a content creator at our wedding, is a total convert and is over the moon with the footage and our experience with Elle)"

Sophie Hipwood
"The content queen! Elle captured our day so perfectly! We and all our loved ones can’t stop watching the content she created for us! The videos are so special and it means so much to us that we can relive our special day! Thank you so so much! I can’t recommend the service enough and you will definitely not regret booking candidly caught to capture your day!"

From the initial phone call through to the wedding day and now receiving all of the videos Elle has been incredible. Genuinely cannot describe how fantastic she is and how pleased we are with our content. Like a fly on the wall throughout the day but so lovely to chat to at the same time, the most fantastic videos were captured. Even my husbands family who try and avoid the camera like the plague were captured at their best and have loved to see the videos. Could not recommend Elle enough! Thank you so so much! Love, Katie & Stuart xxx

Where do I even begin? Elle was truly incredible as the content creator for our wedding this past weekend. From the moment she arrived, she brought such warmth and ease, instantly making us feel comfortable. She never intruded or disrupted the flow of the day, but rather blended seamlessly into the background, discreetly capturing those intimate, authentic moments that often get overlooked. The video she produced is nothing short of magical - every time I watch it, it brings a huge smile to my face and floods me with all the emotions from that day. Her ability to tell the story of our wedding so beautifully is a gift we will cherish forever. Thank you, Elle!!!! Forever grateful to you xx

FAQs

How long do I need a wedding content creator for?

This is totally up to your personal preference. A Silver Package is best suited to capturing the ‘getting ready moments’ and the ceremony. The Platinum Package is designed to capture the whole entire day, from the preparation all the way through to the first dance and the party. The Gold is somewhere in the middle!

Do you replace a photographer?

No! Your photographer provides you with hundreds of high quality and professional photos, usually in a 10-16 week window.

I work seamlessly alongside them to capture the spontaneous, behind-the-scenes moments that may not make it into the final, polished portfolio.

What’s the difference between a wedding content creator and a videographer?

A videographer is more formal and curated and will provide an exquisite, polished, longer form video of your day. Shot in landscape, they can be up to 30 minutes long. They will usually cost anything from £2000-£6000.

A content creator is a modern, natural way to capture your day, for those who want more of a POV / BTS style video.

What if we run out of time?

Every wedding is unique and the itinerary of the day can vary wildly, or of course, delays can happen!

We will pre-agree beforehand if you would like me to stay up until a certain point (eg: the first dance), at a cost of £85 per hour for anything over your chosen package. This way you don’t have to worry that anything will be missed.

Where do you cover?

I’m London based so travel within zones 1-6 is free of charge. Anything outside of that will incur an extra travel fee, depending on the distance.

I would love to join your destination wedding, so please enquire to chat about this on a case by case basis.
