Have a look at this article.

It is incorrect to say: ellos, nosotros, vosotros for a group with just females, however, even if there is just 1 male in that group you would use ellos nosotros and vosotros smile.

Welcome to the forum!

Yes, the personal pronouns would be ellas, nosotras and vosotras (feminine in gender) for an all female group. Mixed (or unknown) or all male groups use the masculine pronouns that you mentioned.
