Lucie here.
My friends and family call me Lucy, and I’ve always been drawn to photography - for as long as I can remember. Maybe it’s in my blood. I have a vivid memory of watching my dad develop 35mm film in a makeshift darkroom he set up in the bathroom of our one-bedroom apartment. Or maybe it’s the simple magic of being able to freeze a moment in time and hold onto a memory forever.
A few years ago, I got my first digital camera, a very basic one. Not long after, a friend asked if I’d photograph their wedding. I said yes… even though I had no idea how to shoot a wedding or what being a photographer really meant. But that was the beginning. That first wedding took place in the middle of the mountains, beside a turquoise lake in Banff National Park. A dream come true. Since then, I’ve known this is the journey I want to be on.
a little bit more about me.
As I like to say, I’m Czech-Canadian. I was born and raised in the beautiful capital city of the Czech Republic, Prague. In my twenties, I moved to Ireland, where I met my husband, John. We got married back in the Czech Republic and lived there for a few years before deciding, about fourteens years ago, to pack our bags, book flights for us and our two pups and start a new chapter in Canada.
Now, we’re based in Red Deer, Alberta, where we’ve settled into a cozy little house we call home. And when we’re not home, you’ll probably find us off exploring the mountains in our tiny camper - the iconic, egg-shaped Canadian Boler.
We’ve truly fallen in love with Canada. The wild beauty of the Rocky Mountains, the wide-open prairies, and the stunning landscape of the badlands. That deep connection with nature and our love of adventure influence my photography in a big way.
My wee family. John, Nelson and Motly.
In our happy place. Somewhere in the mountains with our boler.
thank you.
Thank you for being here and for your interest in my work. It truly means a lot to me. My hope is to capture the moments that matter most to you, through my lens and with heart. Whether it's a quiet glance, a joyful celebration, or simply a time in your life you want to remember, I aim to create images that feel real and lasting.
I’m here for the genuine moments. The connection, the love, and everything in between. The big occasions, the small ones, or even just because you’re feeling good and want to celebrate where you are right now. If you're planning an elopement on a mountaintop in your favourite national park, or want to capture your engagement in a place that means something to you, I’d love to hear your story and be the one to document it.
Take a look through my portfolio, and if my work speaks to you, let’s connect. Let’s start planning your next adventure, and have some fun along the way.
