Live Wedding Illustration

 

UK BASED LIVE WEDDING ARTIST & ILLUSTRATOR

Lively and vibrant illustrations of your wedding day as it happens! I create unique illustrations of your wedding day and your guests.

Bring an artistic edge to your big day whilst entertaining guests. I create live illustrations of key moments, quick guest portraits or a mixture of both.

Live Illustrations of your Wedding Day

One-off mementos of your day, created live for your guests to watch. This could be a stunningly detailed illustration of your wedding ceremony itself, the speeches (including quotes!) or an overview of your drinks reception scene capturing the day’s atmosphere.

Quick & Flattering Guest Portraits

I also sketch flattering portraits in as quick as 5 minutes whilst interacting with your guests to keep them at ease. I draw individuals, couples and groups, providing entertainment for people watching, and giving your guests a unique keepsake of your special day.

Large scene from your day

I love to capture a key moment from your day such as your drinks reception, including the couple and guests at large scale (sizes up to A2). This picture will be full of detail from recognisable people through to details such as pets and unique elements from your day.
