While photography is amazing at capturing the exact moments in real time, live painting has a way of encapsulating the ethereal feelings felt on your special day all in one hand-made painting.

I use a gallery-wrapped cotton duck canvas, Golden heavy body acrylics, and Liquitex Professional matte varnish.

Included in the base fee is a consultation, thumbnails, labor, cost of materials, a background, and two newlyweds in the painting!

My initially stated pricing listed above only includes the base fee. It does not include taxes, travel & accommodation fees, additional guest fees, or any other customizable fees.

1. Do you have a certain background and pose you would like? (ex altar, first dance, dip kiss, ceremony space)

2. Do you have a preference on horizontal or vertical composition? (or you can leave it up to me and I will choose the best orientation:)

3. Do you want to be surprised by your painting at the end of the wedding? Some couples want to be completely surprised by their painting at the end so they avoid peaking at it throughout the night. Guests will be able to see the painting progress either way! :)

4. Do you have a specific dress code (for instance all black, cocktail, formal, gown, business casual, beach, summer, spring, winter etc). I will never wear anything that is white or if you have other colors you’d prefer me not to wear ;)

5. Photos of you both for reference to help with details

6. Who should I give the painting to at the end? It needs to lie flat for at least 2 hours afterwards. Avoid touching for 6-8 hours.

7. What is the starting time and contact of day-of coordinator or wedding planner you would like me to be in touch with? I will get there an hour-45 minutes before the wedding begins. 

8. And lastly a little bit about your story and anything else you might want me to know :) I love to hear about how couples met and a little bit about you!

I can usually finish by the end of the ceremony, depending on the size of the canvas. For a bigger canvas, I may need to take the painting back home to my do studio touch ups. In that case, I will personally deliver or ship the painting to you once finished.

Avoid direct sunlight

Carefully dust from time to time

Allow painting to fully dry flat for at least 24 hours before touching

Absolutely not! If you are getting married and you aren’t planning to have a big ceremony or just want a painting done of you and your loved one at your chosen location, I will gladly do that for you :)
