The Wedding Painting Experience
LIVE WEDDING PAINTING
Make your wedding day even more special with a unique and personalized Live Wedding Painting. Prior to the wedding date, I'll work closely with you to determine the moment you'd like captured in a detailed and beautifully crafted painting that will serve as an heirloom for years to come. My live painting performance is a one-of-a-kind experience that you and your guests will never forget.
PRIOR TO YOUR WEDDING
1. Send me a message to check the availability of your date!
2. Consultation: I will work with you beforehand to create an outline of exactly what you want to be depicted in the painting, including the venue, flowers, pose, guests and personalized touches.
3. Secure your date with a 50% deposit and a signed art agreement.
4. I will connect with you and/or your planner one month before to your wedding to finalized details.
WEDDING DAY
1. I will arrive 3 hours before your desired moment to begin working on the composition and background of your painting.
2. Depending on your pose, I will work with your timeline to film a quick reference video of you and your new husband or wife. This will most likely occur directly after your ceremony.
3. Once I have captured your pose, I will begin painting your perfect moment.
4. At the end of the night, your painting will be resolved, meaning, mostly finished. You and your new husband or wife will be detailed along with the wedding decor. If you decide to have guests featured in the background, they will be abbreviated and then refined when I bring the painting back to my studio.
AFTER YOUR WEDDING
1. I will refine your painting, adding addition details to make sure each person looks accurate.
2. Check your email! I'll send you a painting proof 2-5 weeks after your wedding (time varies depending on complexity size of your canvas).
3. Adjustments: If you see anything that needs to be added or changed, your painting includes one round of adjustments. If more adjustments are needed, it's an additional $50 per adjustment.
4. After your approval, I will send the final invoice and arrangements can be made to pick up your painting.
