Welcome to ELT Moments, where photography becomes more than just an image—it’s a story, a feeling, a connection. I’m Daryl Elliott, the heart behind ELT Moments (formerly known as ELT Expressions), and my journey as a photographer began in the wilderness, capturing the untamed beauty of wildlife and nature.
A Passion for the Wild
From an early age, I’ve felt a deep connection to the natural world. What started as a fascination with landscapes and wildlife soon blossomed into a passion dedicated to capturing nature’s raw, unfiltered moments. Over the years, I’ve honed my craft in some of the most serene and challenging environments.
Among my favorite places to shoot are the tranquil yet mysterious swamps of Huntley Meadows, where the stillness is broken only by the flurry of wings or the ripple of water, and Bombay Hook, a birdwatcher’s paradise with sweeping vistas and vibrant wildlife. These locations offer endless opportunities to capture the true essence of nature, from the delicate flight of a heron to the silent beauty of fog-covered marshlands at dawn.
The ELT Moments Difference
My years of experience in wildlife and nature photography have shaped my approach to all forms of photography. I’ve learned how to bring out the most authentic expressions in any setting, whether I’m working with people, pets, or the wilderness itself. My goal has always been to make my subjects feel comfortable and at ease, allowing me to photograph genuine moments that stand the test of time.
ELT Moments continues the legacy I started with ELT Expressions, but with an even greater focus on creating impactful, lasting memories. While my love for capturing nature is at the core of my work, I’m equally passionate about telling your story—whether it’s a portrait session, a wedding, or a beloved pet.
A Personalized Experience
At ELT Moments, I believe in offering a truly personalized experience. Whether we’re wandering through the wooded trails of Huntley Meadows or capturing the grandeur of a wedding day, each session is tailored to reflect your unique personality and vision. My background in wildlife photography has given me a patient, observant approach, allowing me to notice the small, meaningful details that make your moments special.
