Sketch Artist​

Unique, quick, spontaneous, intuitive and quirky sketches
drawn on the day 
to create a unique momento
of your wedding or special event.

My work would make a ideal present
as it is so different and memorable
so why not add me to your Wedding Present List!

 
What do I do?

​I capture special moments as a photographer would do, except I draw them instead, creating memories of the atmosphere and vibe of your event.

 

I sketch anything I see which will recreate the story of your day – beautiful venues, stunning table decorations and flowers, guests chatting and dancing, impressive wedding cakes, late evening nibbles, classy hats and outfits, and those special individual touches you have chosen.

 

I work quickly and unobtrusively, and I like to be there for the whole day to capture as much as possible, creating around 40+ reportage style sketches.

 

My pictures will tell your story in a way that photographs are not able to do. Other artists may draw caricatures of guests as entertainment but I am passionate about the whole experience and how all elements of the day interact to create a visual feast.

 

Ultimately, it is about creating memories for the happy couple (or whoever I am drawing for). 

 

Personalised pictures of your wedding day would make an ideal gift for the happy couple. Not only are they a unique gift for those ‘who already have everything they need’, but the pictures would be long treasured and remembered. Why not add wedding sketches to your wedding present list, or suggest it to your favourite auntie who wants to buy you something very special?

 

Do contact me for a chat if you’d like to understand more about how I could enhance your special day.
