Hey there! My name is Lucille (but go by Lucy) and I have been capturing smiles and special moments for the past 15 years as a photographer.  Growing up I always liked to color and draw which then turned in to a passion for photography when I took my first film photography class in high school. I then attended The Ohio State University where I obtained a Bachelor's of Art with an emphasis in photography. 

There are many different styles of photography, but what I am attracted to is portraiture. There is something about finding that twinkle in a child's eye, or finding the right light that hits the surface of ones face to bring out not only ones outer beauty, but their inner beauty as well. Photography to me is so important - whenever I go back to my home town of Defiance, Ohio - I love to ask my parents to show me my baby pictures. In a digital age, its so easy for us to take a snapshot and save it on our camera or phone, but what I am here to do is to create not only a beautiful portrait, but a piece of artwork that will last a lifetime.

Now as a mother of two littles (#BOYMOM!), I know how important it is to capture moments and make time stand still.  I cannot wait to show them photographs when they are older just like my parents do with me! 

Hey Lucy Photography specializes in all styles of portraiture. Providing a memorable experience and creative portraits is what I aspire to do with every session. 

From belly bumps, tiny yawns, to sporting the graduation cap - portraiture is a circle of life.  I love to bring out the beauty in everyone, no matter how unphotogenic you say you are, or just don't like taking pictures - I am here to make you feel comfortable so that your spirit can shine through. Yes smiles are great, but the candid laughs and pouty faces are what can also make a portrait equally great.  An online gallery of your best images will be available for sharing with family and friends. Prints, albums and card products are all available to you for purchase.  Please inquire for pricing.

Not only do I love taking the pictures, but I also love doing makeup and hair. These services are available to you as well for all my photography specializations. Please inquire about pricing.
