Description
If you want wedding entertainment that feels genuinely different and a guest favour people will actually keep, then live guest portraits are the perfect addition.
I create one-of-a-kind portraits on A6 clear acrylic sheets, painted live at your wedding. It’s a fun, feel-good experience for guests (they love watching the process), and they leave with a unique keepsake they can take home and hang.
Each portrait is finished with a chain, turning it into a mini piece of art your guests can display straight away, not something that ends up forgotten in a drawer.
So how does it work?
Step 1: I set up at your venue
I arrive with my table setup and décor, ready to start painting as guests arrive.
Step 2: Guests visit my table
Guests pop over, I take their photo, and then I paint their portrait from the photo while they enjoy the celebrations.
Step 3: Collect later
Each portrait takes around 20–25 minutes. Guests can return later to collect their finished piece, safely packaged in a protective sleeve.
Step 4: Take-home keepsake
At the end of my booked time, guests leave with a finished acrylic portrait which serves as a colourful, personal memento of your day.

Our Promise
100% Love it Guarantee
This painting will hang on your wall for decades. So we think you should adore it, not just accept it. You'll be shown the finished piece before it's sent, your artist will happily revise it, and if it still isn't right, you pay nothing. No awkward conversations, no polite disappointment.

Flexible Deposits: Secure your date with flexible deposits that suit you, and your budget. Our artists work with your budget, not against it.
Replacement Promise: If your artist cancels before your wedding, you're protected. We'll issue a full refund and help you find a replacement artist where possible.

Your Artist's Promise
A Free Consultation Call: Every artist offers a short call to talk through your vision properly before anything's finalised, so you're guided by someone who knows what actually works on the day.
Quote Revisions Until It's Right: Not sure on size or package yet? Your artist can revise the quote as many times as you need until it reflects exactly what you want, with no pressure to decide early.
Flexibility If Things Change: From enquiry through to your wedding day, the artist follows up on the details that matter: deadlines, check-ins and next steps, so nothing gets missed on your side.

About the Artist
I create one-of-a-kind guest portraits that are the perfect addition to any wedding or event! I simply take a picture of the guests, paint the portrait from the picture whilst the guests enjoy the event. They can then return later on to collect their finished piece. I paint on A6 clear acrylic sheets and each painting is finished with a chain in your choice of colour plus my signature True Artistry tag. My guest illustrations are unique and your guests will love the piece they get to take home!
