Think of me as a Live Photo Booth! I pitch up to your event with my watercolours and a camera and create live portraits for your guests to take home as favours.
 
In this era of digitalisation, I add a unique, handmade and personal touch to your day. As a live illustrator, I offer entertainment, as guests can watch me work, but also a completely bespoke piece of original artwork for your guests to take home, frame and remember your special day forever.
 
HOW DOES IT WORK?
I am set up in a corner (all you need to provide is a chair and a sturdy table), with all my materials. Any guests who would like a portrait can come over, where I will take a picture of them, and draw them using Unipin fineliner ink and Winsor & Newton watercolour paints on the highest quality watercolour card. 
 
HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE?
Each portrait takes roughly 10 minutes (this is to paint a couple).
But for the guests, no time at all! All I need is a quick photo, then they are free to wander off, have a dance, have a drink, have a canape or two...! And when I am finished, I will peg it up on a board next to me for your guests to collect when they are ready. 
I can paint up to 15 people per hour.
 
I HAVE TOO MANY GUESTS!
Panic not! If there are too many guests for the allowed time, you can purchase my 'Extra Package', where I take home any photos that haven't been painted and paint them at home. I'll then send them to you to post to your guests after the day (A perfect thank you card...!)
 
EXTRA TOUCH
If you would like each painting to be stamped with the bride and grooms' names and date, I can supply a personalised stamp for you to take home at the end of the day :)
