What is live illustration?
Live illustration brings an unforgettable blend of art, style, and experience to your wedding or event. As guests arrive dressed to impress, I capture them on paper, while they’re looking and feeling their best.
It’s interactive, elegant, and leaves your guests with a personalised keepsake that they’ll want to frame.
The benefit of having a service like this at your event is in being able to bring people together with a shared experience. On occasions where many different groups of people are in attendance, having a focal point of interactive entertainment helps friendships to form and conversation to flow. With the addition of a bespoke and stylised keepsake for your guests, a treasured memory is gifted, to be cherished for years to come.
How does it work on the day?
This is your day and, as such, the service is tailored to ensure it works with whatever vision you have for the occasion.
I will arrive 30 minutes to an hour before the start of the event, to set up and prepare my materials, in whichever area works best for you.
As the guests arrive, I will invite them to pose for a quick photo, and will work from these. This allows everyone to continue enjoying the event without having to wait around and miss the fun elsewhere!
As I complete each piece, they will be placed in protective sleeves, and displayed for everyone to see. This display is a wonderful addition to any event space.
Guests may collect their completed portraits at any time, although I also offer a delivery service to your home as part of my event packages, should any be left behind. These can then be included with your guest thank you cards.
I can be front and centre, if appropriate, but if a more secluded workspace is more in line with your vision, then I can work in the background. The day is yours, and I love helping to ensure it runs exactly as you wish.
