luccie aka lulu (or lu/luc)
Photographer, mum of 3 and the person behind the camera
My love for photography started over 20 years ago at college, in a darkroom. I was completely obsessed. I’d use my best friends as models, curating scenes inspired by famous fashion photographers then spend hours developing the prints by hand- creating magic.
Years later, photography found its way back to me in the most natural way, when I became a mum.
After my first son was born, I picked up the camera again and it never left my side. That love only grew as I went on to have two more children.
01.
Fact 1
Born and raised in London but my feet haven't always been firm on London soil. Before I had kids I travelled around 50 countries in 9 years. To tell the truth - I wish I had more pictures of these times
02.
Fact 2
I'm a mum of 3 boys so my house is permanently loud. They actually hate getting their picture taken now and its a real effort to get them in front of the camera. I'm used to crazy kids chaos does not scare me!
03.
Fact 3
I photographed a wedding when I was 16 for a friend as a favour using one SLR camera and lens and a few roles of film. Unknowing to me my friend entered one of my pictures in to a competition and it won.
04.
Fact 4
I'll always choose candid moments over perfectly posed ones. The ones that go unseen which show real emotion and feeling in that moment.
