    Incredible every step of the way!

    3 Elements photography were incredible for my wedding! Everything from Stephanie’s communication to the work the team does, they give it there all. My pictures came out better than I could’ve expected and she knew exactly how to make my day perfect. I was also blown away at how they worked in a timely fashion with sneak peak releases and having all of my photos back in a few short weeks. I am so grateful I had the opportunity to work with and have these photos for the rest of my life. Lastly, I had special requests and she was able to fulfill them better than I could’ve expected! I will be recommending them to all friends and family!

    The Absolute Best!

    I cannot say enough wonderful things about Stephanie (photos), Rich (video) and their team. They made everything incredibly easy. My husband and I used Stephanie for both our engagement photos and our wedding photos and the pictures are fantastic.

    Stephanie takes her time to truly understand the couple - who you are, what you want, what you are comfortable with, what you are most concerned about, definite things you want captured on your day, etc. She truly abides by her statement of "I'm here for you". She is also just a fun, nice human being that makes it easy to be around and hang out with. Her photos are absolutely stunning. She was able to take a person like myself, who normally hates getting her photo taken, and feels super awkward doing so, and makes it a fun, easy going, care free experience, that then comes out in beautiful photos. Trust me, if someone can make me look natural and photogenic in pictures, they have all the talent in the world, and that is without a doubt, Stephanie.

    There is no better way to describe Rich than happy, fun, and motivating. He is able to take a person who feels super uncomfortable on camera and make them feel like they are just in a room with friends. His videos and drone shots help capture every moment of your day, from shots and views that you never thought you would get to see yourself. His assistant and he were able to blend in seamlessly at our reception and never overwhelmed the guests.

    Both Stephanie and Rich are great with timely communications, quick sneak peaks, and easy access to collections.

    Would highly recommend the team, and look forward to working with 3 Elements Photography/Videography to help capture more future memories to come!

    Best night ever

    3 elements made our night so special. The team is truly so amazing. Both Stephanie and Richard did a great job of making us and our guests feel so comfortable while taking pictures. They were professional, organized, and all in all amazing. I could not have asked for a better photographer and videographer. Our pictures came out beautiful, better than I could’ve ever hoped for.

    Married Nov. 25th, 2023

    The 3 elements crew, Stephanie Kelly and Rich, were AMAZING. They were so easy going, and gave such simple easy direction throughout the entire day. They were very informative and kept me and my husband in the loop about time lines, and how we would prefer to execute our day, and it couldn't have gone any smoother or been more perfect! I would highly recommend them!!! They bring such good and positive energy, and made our day a dream come true!!

    We would definitely use 3 elements for our next wedding!! Hahaha

    Exceptional Vendor for photo/video!!

    Stephanie, Rich and their photo/video team were EXCEPTIONAL!! It felt SO nice to not have to give direction and be the leader on my own wedding day. After a year and a half of stressful wedding planning and constantly thinking about every moving part, it was finally my turn to relax, with the help of Stephanie/Rich and their team.

    They are truly professionals and the way they conduct themselves and move quickly and consider timeline on the day of is a testament to that and also, how long they've been performing their craft. And they did it ALL DAY with smiles, laughter, and jokes. Even when guests and other people would get in the way of photos, they were so kind about informing them and getting their job done. I was the first in my family to get married, so I had more of a photo shot list for Stephanie to follow than maybe most. Let me just say, Stephanie and Rich MOVED their butts, took control (in a way that's necessary for a bride on her wedding day), and most importantly, were efficient through it all. There was nothing left untouched or missing that we needed from them.

    Unfortunately, what is a wedding without a hiccup!? Our party bus broke down on the way to Old Westbury Gardens where we were going to take bridal party photos prior to heading to our venue. Stephanie was following us and when I thought my vision had crashed and burned, Stephanie immediately hopped on our bus, got us all outside and MADE MOVES. She directed one bridal party member to call the bus company, another to call Old Westbury Gardens, another to inform my wedding day coordinator, another to get in touch with the videographer--Rich, another to actually inform the person's home of the yard we were about to take photos on... Thankfully, the area we broke down at was someone's open backyard, which was large, had beautiful trees, and ironically, you would never know looking at the photos/videos that it was actually taken in someone's backyard. Needless to say, the day was saved thanks to Stephanie, Rich and their team. You won't regret picking them!!!

    Best Photographer Ever

    Stephanie and her team were absolutely incredible. My husband and I are not photogenic by any means and we also really wanted to be as present as possible for our day. Stephanie listened to exactly what we said we wanted to do and made all the preparations and planning so we did not have to worry about anything. We also faced challenging weather, which the team dealt with seamlessly. They captured every moment of our wedding day with ease. The commitment to us enjoying our day while capturing beautiful photographs was unmatched. Our pictures are absolutely incredible. Trust me, if someone can make us look amazing in photos, they are beyond talented. I cannot recommend them enough. You will love the photos they take and you will love working with them.

    So much fun!!!!

    I don’t even know where to begin. Stephanie and Kelly were absolutely AMAZING to work with. I was so nervous about doing our pictures and how they would come out. Stephanie made us feel so comfortable and we had an absolute blast. So far I only got the samples back (which I got back in record time!!) and I cannot stop looking at them. I am the type of person that cringes anytime I see a picture of myself but these came out absolutely amazing, I think I’ve sent them to everyone in my phone book so far lol. We are now looking forward to doing pictures with Stephanie in the future, that’s how much of a pleasure it was. If your not choosing Stephanie as your photographer, you’re definitely making the wrong choice. Stephanie and Kelly - thank you again for being so much fun and so easy to work with. You really helped make our wedding an absolute dream come true.

    Five Stars!!

    Stephanie was great to work with from the first meeting until the wedding day. She was always very quick to reply and answer all questions I had. My wedding photos came out beautiful and I could not be happier!

    Amazing!!!!

    We met Stephanie a little over a year ago and we knew immediately that she was the photographer for us. Her personality is infectious and you want to just hang out with her!! We did our engagement pictures with her last fall which came out beautiful! I was shocked that she was able to get such amazing shots since I hate having my picture taken! Stephanie has a way of putting you so at ease and making you comfortable that you forget you are even taking pictures. The shots she gets are gorgeous!! When it came to our wedding day she pulled up all full of smiles and ready for action. We decided a few weeks before the wedding to change our plans and go to Islip Grange Park for the reveal (so glad we did!!) and she had no problem making the changes. Stephanie and Carol (2nd photographer) worked so well with our kids and family and friends. Everyone fell in love with them!! She sent us some sneak peeks and OMG I cannot even imagine choosing the pictures for our album because so far they are all amazing! I cannot recommend this team of amazing people enough!!! Stephanie will become part of your family and you will want to have events just to hire her again!! Check them out!!! You will not be disappointed!!

    The most incredible photo/video team!

    There are literally no words to describe how incredible Stephanie and her team is… seeing our photos was amazing and we got to relive the most amazing wedding day through these beautiful pictures! Booking the 3 elements team was the best decision we could’ve made! They all made our day flow flawlessly and we had SO much fun with all of them. My husband doesn’t like taking photos and he was modeling effortlessly by our first look! We will forever reccomend 3 elements as they are simply the best & truly make magic happen.✨❤️

    Best photographer!

    We worked with 3 elements photography for our wedding in June and thoroughly enjoyed working with her and the rest of the team. We found her work through social media as she worked another event at our venue and we loved her vision in capturing the venue. Stephanie’s energy is unmatched - she is organized, efficient, a genuinely sweet soul and made us feel comfortable throughout the entire day. She is super responsive and made sure all of our questions or requests were addressed. Highly recommend working with Stephanie and the rest of the 3 elements team!

    Best Photographer!

    Stephanie and her team were recommended to me by a friend, and we could not have been happier with the entire process! We knew we were in good hands from the very first phone call. The communication was on point, and any questions we had were answered thoroughly and quickly. On our wedding day Steph and Kelli made us feel so comfortable and we had a blast laughing and taking photos with them. All of our pictures came out AMAZING!!! Do not hesitate to book, I promise you will be so happy you did!

    Amazing. Could not recommend enough!

    Stephanie did an amazing job. She was kind, professional, and personable throughout the whole experience. She listened to everything I wanted and went above and beyond the day of my wedding. She showed up on time (actually a little early!) introduced herself and went right into taking photos of everything!

    She made everyone feel soooo comfortable the whole night. We got teasers within a few weeks and all our photos were ready within a month and a half. To say I’m in love with how they came out is an understatement.

    Stephanie’s talent amazes me and I couldn’t be more grateful and excited to have our wedding photos to remember our special day by. If you’re even thinking about working with 3 Elements… do it!!!!

    Love love love Stephanie! Book Immediately!

    3.elements.photography and Stephanie were one of my favorite wedding vendors. I could write an essay about how wonderful her team is. From day one, she was kind and funny — she really made me and my husband feel comfortable working with her for my 12/02/22 wedding. I even mentioned to her how I was nervous to pose because of new weight gain; she made me feel beautiful and guided me through poses.

    She was also down for every cool idea — we wanted to do our engagement photos in a bowling alley? Sure! Want to do a birthday shoot with balloons on a beach? Sure! You want this specific shot at your wedding? Sure! Stephanie really worked to make my photo dreams come true in the three shoots I did with her.

    And the photos were beautiful!! We loved all of them for every shoot! She even got some very amazing candids that I will treasure forever - there is one of my sister rehearsing her MOH speech that she still doesn’t know how she got because she didn’t see her in the room!

    Overall, love her so much! Book her!!

    A DREAM. A hire you will NOT regret

    We hired 3Elements for photography for our wedding. I found her through a Facebook wedding group.

    Stephanie is phenomenal. Ever since my first conversation with her as I was hunting for photographers, I had a really good gut feeling about her and I'm glad I went with it.

    We did our engagement photo shoot with her as well, and I was even more convinced on that day that we were in good hands for our wedding.

    Stephanie's demeanor is calm, which in my opinion is critical for such a stressful day. I spoke to her about my good side, preferred angles, and insecurities beforehand and she took it all and made sure to capture the best photos on the day of. Any concerns I had leading up to the wedding, we talked through and she had advice/solutions. On the day of, photos were seamless. She was there if I had a last-minute picture I wanted and texted her about. She runs a smooth ship. I was never worried about everything being captured the day of.

    Our photos are stunning. I cried watching them back (still do) and am so happy we trusted her with our day.

    I cannot recommend 3Elements enough. The photos from your wedding are a treasure, and I'm so happy that Stephanie was our photographer.

    The best ever!

    3 Elements Photography/Film is absolutely the best and I am so thankful that I got to spend my wedding day with them! As the bride, I had the pleasure of spending most of the day with Stephanie (photo) and Richard (film) who are amazing! They pay attention to detail, are so easy to communicate with, ensured a smooth timeline, and are clearly passionate about what they does! It’s like they are mind readers - while getting ready a song came on and the bridal party broke out into song and dance and I thought to myself “that would be so cool to have this documented” and within seconds Richard and Stephanie ran down the stairs and captured it!! Jess was our second shooter and she was also awesome and so easy to get along with !!

    My now husband and I were on the fence about doing the engagement photo shoot because we didn't need the pictures but let me tell you ... DO IT!!! We had the best time getting to know Stephanie before our big day and we now have the most beautiful pictures! 3 Elements truly does amazing/beautiful work and we were amazed by the turn around time to receive our teasers! We HIGHLY recommend both 3 Elements Photography and 3 Elements Film!!!

    Amazing and nothing but the best!

    Stephanie made my wedding day so special and her team was so nice. They made you feel comfortable and to just enjoy your day and the process. Picking my photographer was so easy knowing Stephanie from working at another company for when my sister got married I knew when my day came I had to have her !!. I then found out she left and started her own company and was so happy that she had my date available. Out of all the important things you have to choose for your special day like photography, that was the easiest for me because she does such great work and whenever you have questions big or small she answers you right away or in a very short time. I would HIGHLY RECOMMEND 3 Elements Photography! They are nothing but the best.

    The BEST decision you can make for your wedding!

    I can not say enough about 3 elements photography. Hiring them for our wedding was truly one of the best decisions we made! My husband and I were both concerned we would feel and look uncomfortable with so many pictures but we had so much fun with the 3 elements team and it was undeniable in our photos! We are obsessed with our wedding photos, they really captured us, our vibe and love for each other. We also did our engagement photos with our two dogs, and obviously obsessed with those as well!! I would highly recommend using 3 elements for your wedding.. we plan on using them for all our important life events in the future!
