Smyling Pictures - Fotografie by Lucie Smy

I’m Lucie Smy — the person behind Smyling Pictures. As a dedicated family photographer my focus is on capturing authentic, relaxed moments between people. Since I began photographing in 2019 and turned my passion into a side business in 2020, I’ve developed a gentle visual language that prioritizes natural expression and closeness. I live with my husband and our two children in Emmerich am Rhein and I know how precious family photos are as keepsakes. Why choose me as your family photographer? Because I bring calm, patience and a caring eye for little details. My strength is observation: I look for real interaction — laughter, small touches, spontaneous gestures — and aim to freeze those moments. Whether outdoors in nature or at a familiar place, my goal is for you to feel comfortable and be yourselves. That atmosphere is created through friendly guidance, straightforward communication and a relaxed working style. How I work with families: Before the session we discuss your wishes so we can shape a personal concept — relaxed and stress-free. During the shoot I use gentle directions and small games to keep children at ease. Pets are welcome and I enjoy documenting their natural role within the family. Afterward I deliver carefully edited images in high quality so you can enjoy and share your memories right away. My services are tailored to families who want natural, timeless family photos and authentic portraits. I primarily photograph family and portrait sessions and take on occasional family events by request. My aim is simple: to combine authenticity, warmth and visual quality so your images keep touching you for years to come. If you’d like to show your best smile or create a precious family memory, contact me — I look forward to meeting you. Keep Smyling!
