live wedding guest portraits

a unique & personal wedding favour

Guest portraits offer a fun experience and a sweet favour for guests to remember your beautiful wedding day by. My fashion illustration-inspired wedding guest portraits are painted live during the reception to quickly capture the fashion, hairstyles, and energy of your wedding guests.

how it works

If guests are interested in taking home their own painting, they can stop by my table to have a reference photo taken. Each guest painting takes about 6 minutes to complete (12 minutes for couple paintings). Many guests will get to take their portrait home with them at the end of the night!
