With a passion for building bridges through storytelling, Lucy has followed lives and captured voices from all corners of the world for the past two decades. As a cinematographer, director and editor of short and long format documentaries, her work has been broadcast on BBC Storyville, BBC 3, PBS, ARTE, SWR, CNN, WaterBear and Icarus Complex Magazine. The feature-length documentary, “Out of the Ashes” (BBC Storyville) was co-produced by Sam Mendes and won a 2011 Grierson Award. She is part of Ripple Effect Images, a nonprofit collective of world-class storytellers and National Geographic photographers highlighting solutions for food, water, health, education, energy, economic empowerment, and climate. Together with Le Ciel Foundation, Lucy shot and co-directed “The Twelve”, a feature length documentary on the wisdom and knowledge of twelve indigenous Elders from across the globe.
Today her focus is on supporting the voice of Nature. She is part of A Wisdom Keeper's Delegation, an indigenous delegation pushing for policy change at the UN Climate Conferences. Currently she is working on a feature length documentary in collaboration with "The Earth Elders", an indigenous-led council from all continents.
Lucy has a base in the UK, owns her own equipment and works as a freelance cinematographer, director and editor across the globe.
