I arrive 1 hour prior to your drinks reception to get set up. I bring all of my supplies with the exception of a table and a chair.

I am available anywhere from 3-6 hours on-site. On average, I can draw 1 guest in roughly 5-6 minutes & 2 guests in roughly 9-11 minutes. Please take into account transition times between each guest/drawing. I can draw approximately 4-6 couples or 8-10 guests per hour.

Depending on your wedding guest list size, not all guests may get drawn. Please keep in mind, not everyone will ask for a portrait as well. I do offer an add-on package that will cover additional portraits to be completed after your wedding and mailed directly to you to include in their thank you card.

I will bring a sign that explains to guests what I am doing and how they can participate.

They will be happy to know that they will not be asked to stand in front of me while I paint them. Instead, I ask them to pose for a photo. I take that photo and use it for reference while they get to enjoy the reception.

During the reception, I take photos and meet the guests and paint. Over the course of 2 hours I can paint roughly 20 guests. I can then move my set-up into the dinner and guests can come over throughout the evening. I keep painting as many as possible for the duration of time you’ve chosen.

I enclose the final pictures in a protective sleeve and display it on the table. This becomes a tiny pop-up gallery for your guests. They will enjoy looking at these during the meal as they recognize themselves and others. They are free to take their own as soon as it’s complete.

Yes! 

Travel rates vary. Please get in touch to discuss your event.

I can complete a portrait in approximately 6-10 minutes.

No more than two people can be in a single portrait.

Guests come to me! Depending on the venue, I will either bring a table and cloth or I will ask you to have the venue set up a table and chair for me in a spot that is out of the way yet easy to spot. As I am going to be taking photos and working from them, the line should be minimal.

Absolutely! I love an audience and I will chat with your guests and explain my process and even allow them to try their hand at painting time permitting.

I use watercolors, ink, pencil, markers, and acid free paper.

Watercolor paint and markers need minimal time to dry. Depending on the humidity in the room, it can take anywhere from 10-20 minutes.

Absolutely! It is possible to brand the paper with your logo and/or names. There is an additional charge of $150 and I will need the digital file of the logo 4 weeks before the event.

Yes! I carry standard liability insurance.

Rates depend on the number of guests and the number of hours you book. The minimum booking is five hours and rates start at $2200. Please get in touch and we can discuss details.

Begin by filling on my contact form. If I am available on your specified date, I will reach out with a quote for booking.

Once you are confirmed and ready to move forward, you will sign the contract and invoice. I require a $400 non-refundable deposit as a retainer. The balance will be due one month prior to the event.

As a special gift, after the wedding, I paint a complimentary andmore refined watercolor of the couple and mail it directly to them.
