A Painting Created As Your Day Unfolds
Your wedding is a day where you are surrounded by the people you love the most. It honors a lifetime of love and commitment. Live wedding painting captures this moment and transforms it into original works of art that can be cherished forever.
Guests, young and old, get to spend the evening watching the painting unfold, creating a unique experience that is heartwarming and engaging throughout the entire evening.
I paint on-site throughout the celebration, building the atmosphere, landscape, architecture, and energy of the day as it unfolds. After the wedding, the painting is completed in the studio and delivered as a finished heirloom piece.
Your painting is created to match your style and preferences and designed to capture the beauty and uniqueness of your special day.
The Process
Before the Ceremony
I arrive early to photograph the venue and begin painting the setting before guests arrive.
THrough out the Celebration
As the painting develops, guests are invited to watch the process and see the artwork take shape throughout the day.
At the end of the night
The couple gets to relive their special moment with this work in progress before the painting heads back to the studio for final touches.
Note: If desired, painting can be finished on site night of with prior arangements.
Guest Portraits
Watercolor guest portraits can be a great addition to your reception. It is a unique way to do something beautiful for your loved ones.
Guests can pose for their portraits and take their personal keepsake home with them.
This creates a fun, interactive experience to capture those special moments.
Why a Painting?
Photographs capture what we see.
Paintings capture what we experience.
A beautifully planned wedding is a sight to behold, but the significance of the day goes far beyond the flowers, attire, and details. It honors a deeply meaningful love and the commitment between two people, witnessed by those they hold dear.
A live wedding painting captures the story of the day as it unfolds. Guests have the opportunity to witness the artwork taking shape throughout the celebration, while the couple receives a lasting piece of that moment to live with for years to come.
As the years pass and your story continues to grow, the painting becomes more than a keepsake—it becomes a family heirloom, carrying the memory of that day forward for generations.
