Well 2017 has been a whirlwind! I cannot believe I am about to post my highlights of 2017, I have been fortunate enough to capture some amazing weddings with wonderful couples. In this blog I have included lots of snippets from Full Day Weddings I’ve captured and lots of wonderful testimonials from my previous clients. I am so lucky to hear back from couples after weddings and am super excited to be capturing a few 2017 bridesmaids weddings next year! It was so hard to pick which images were put into this blog; for more please check out the individual blogs of some of the weddings I have created in the past few months. I’ve also been fortunate enough to visit Bali; an amazing honeymoon location and Vienna for Christmas. You can have a look at my travel blogs here.
I started the year off at The Orangery for Katie & Matthew’s beautiful wedding. I was fortunate enough to have the wedding featured on Rock My Wedding – http://www.rockmywedding.co.uk/katie-matthew/
“From the second we heard about Lucie and wandered through her Instagram page and website we knew she would be the perfect photographer for us. Throughout the whole wedding planning process she was helpful, an incredible communicator and very flexible with organising the pre shoot. Lucie made us feel like she was always one step ahead of us, which is the greatest feeling when you have 500 other things to think about prior to your wedding.
From the second Lucie arrived at the venue she was snapping away, helping us to capture how incredible the day really was. She always seemed to be at the right place at the right time, allowing us to see every detail and every funny moment we missed out on on the day.
There are seriously no words to describe how beautiful our wedding pictures turned out and we have continued to be impressed by Lucie and her attention to detail. On returning from our honeymoon to South Africa we had the most beautiful wooden engraved box with pictures and memory stick with all of 600+ wedding photos on it waiting for us. Such a beautiful finishing touch.
Lucie, thank you so so much for the time and effort you put into making our wedding planning process easier and for allowing us to both have complete peace of mind on the day. We are so grateful and soooo happy we found you.”

“We couldn’t have asked for a better wedding photographer. She is bloody amazing! Made us feel really comfortable and I don’t normally like my picture taken but enjoyed every minute of it!!! Highly recommend.”
— MR & MRS MILLS, DECEMBER 2017 – ROYAL WELLS HOTEL
“We could not have asked for a better wedding photographer than Lucie. We had an engagement shoot with her a couple of months before the day and she set us at ease right away. It was a golden hour photoshoot and the photos came out amazingly!
On the wedding day Lucie was there all day and had a wonderful presence. Many commented on how lovely it was to see an unobtrusive photographer who still got the job done. Our formal shots were perfect but not only that Lucie has a talent for capturing those special moments that no one else does, which is priceless!
The photos speak for themselves. We will cherish them forever. We cannot recommend her enough!”
— MR & MRS ALLAN, AUGUST 2017 – CANTERBURY
“I was researching Kent wedding photographers online when I came across Lucie two years before my wedding day, just after we had booked our venue. I immediately loved her style and knew she would be perfect for our day. When we met her she showed us more of her beautiful work and we all got along instantly. We booked her up on the spot and I could tell that her photography career was going to take off.
Prior to our wedding we had an engagement shoot. I highly recommend this as it gave us a chance to get comfortable in front of the camera, with Lucie putting us at ease, and we all got to know each other more and have a laugh before the big day! And, of course, we got some beautiful photos.
When the wedding day came round it was a pleasure to have Lucie there, she gives 100% of herself to the day and captures all the details and special moments. She was also very helpful and great at organising everyone and they have all said how lovely she is and how they wish they had her for their weddings. When we received our photo gallery it was like re-living the day again and we absolutely love our photos, they are stunning and Lucie’s use of natural light is amazing, we were lucky enough to have the perfect golden hour.
Lucie is very talented and such a kind person, do not hesitate to book her.”
— MR & MRS ABBOTT, JULY 2017 – THE ORANGERY
“Finding the right photographer was difficult. We wanted our shots to be natural but also to have that wow factor. I was told about Lucie Watson by a friend, I looked through her website and she was just what we were looking for. Her natural light shots were gorgeous and I was drawn in by her golden hour! We also had Chloe Lee, who took video clips throughout the day to create a highlights film. Lucie and Chloe were best friends too and they were so lovely and easy to work with. Photography for me was a huge part of the wedding and I am so happy we found Lucie! I will treasure her shots forever.”
— MR & MRS HARLEY, AUGUST 2017 – THE BARN BRASSIERE
“Thank you so much for everything you have done for us. The photos were perfect! Also, the USB presentation was just the cherry on the cake! ”
“Thank you so so much for the AMAZING photos we have of our wedding day, we love them. You were an absolute pleasure to work with in all stages of the wedding. Love how the photos arrived on the great USB and the box. ”
“We are absolutely over the moon with them, we really could not have wished for anything more, you surpassed our expectations. We really love them!!!”
“Lucie, Thank you! We are blown away by these. Can’t wait to get home and download them in all their full res glory. Both yourself and Chloe took some amazing shots here and were worth every penny. Anyone looking for a photographer will get your details from us for sure!”
“Wow!!! Lucie shot our wedding on the 17th June and we have just received our gallery; the pictures are absolutely beautiful. Not only is Lucie super talented, she is such a genuinely lovely person to have around. Lucie was even kind enough to give me a drink from her water bottle as I thought I was going to pass out with the heat. Lucie’s style perfectly fitted with our day and we even got our golden hour shot. I cannot recommend Lucie enough! Now for the difficult task of picking the photographs for our wedding album. Thank you so much again Lucie, you are an absolute star xxx”
I asked my previous clients to send me their favourite captures from their Wedding/Pre Wedding Shoot:
2018 is looking amazing with 23 weddings booked already for 2018 and 6 for 2019! I am so excited to be travelling abroad twice to capture weddings in Finland and Italy; Lake Como aswell. Watch this space for many more gorgeous weddings to be blogged in the coming months.
Happy New Year!
