THE EXPERIENCE
Live illustration is designed to be both an interactive experience and a meaningful takeaway for your guests.
Guests are invited to sit for a live portrait during the event, and illustrations are created live throughout the evening — capturing the style, energy, and individuality of your celebration.
Each piece is created live and becomes a personalized keepsake for your guests to take home.
EVENT FLOW
Live illustration is thoughtfully integrated into the flow of your event — most often during cocktail hour and into the reception — allowing for a relaxed, engaging atmosphere rather than continuous, head-down work.
GUEST EXPERIENCE
Guests are invited to sit for a live portrait during the event, with illustrations created throughout the evening — capturing the style, energy, and individuality of your celebration. Each piece is created live and becomes a personalized keepsake for guests to take home.
On average, I typically create 6–8 illustrations per hour, allowing for both detail and guest interaction. For larger events, not every guest may receive an illustration, but the experience itself becomes part of the entertainment, with guests enjoying the process as it unfolds — often gathering, watching, and engaging as each illustration comes to life.
For larger guest counts, additional time can be added to expand the experience.
