Lucca Chmel (born Lucia Maria Chmel; 5 December 1911, Vienna – 16 March 1999, Vienna was an Austrian photographer who made a name for herself primarily through her architectural photography during the 1950s and 1960s. Through her images, she served as both a chronicler and an interpreter of the evolution of Austrian architecture during that era. She photographed for renowned architects such as Erich Boltenstern, Oswald Haerdtl, and Roland Rainer. Numerous connections to the theater also led to an increase in studio portrait photography. The studio produced photographs of theatrical greats such as Vilma Degischer, Klaramaria Skala, Maria Eis, Karl Skraup, O. W. Fischer, and Ewald Balser.
