Description
Most couples have to wait weeks for their wedding painting. I hand you yours the same night.
I'm a live wedding painter based in London, working in professional-grade acrylic on canvas. My style blends realism with a soft, impressionistic touch, paintings that capture how the day felt not just how it looked, painted live as your celebration unfolds around me.
What sets my work apart is that I complete most paintings on site. You leave your wedding with a finished, varnished piece in hand — an investment you can take home the same night, from a day that passed in a blur. No waiting. No wondering. Just the painting, done.
How it works
Step 1 — Planning your painting
Before the wedding, we'll have a consultation to talk through your day — the venue, the timeline, and the moment you want captured. Whether that's your first kiss, the aisle walk, a portrait session, or your first dance, I'll help you choose the moment and composition that will make the most of the canvas. We'll also talk through mood, colour, and scale so I arrive on the day with a clear plan already in place.
Step 2 — Arrival and set-up
I arrive a few hours before the chosen moment to begin laying in the background and atmosphere from life — building the scene so that when your moment arrives, I'm ready for it.
Step 3 — The moment, painted live
As your celebration unfolds, I paint the scene you've chosen. Your guests can watch the painting build throughout the day — the live process becomes part of the atmosphere of the reception.
Step 4 — Finished and varnished the same night
I complete the painting on site. Before I leave, it's varnished for colour protection and longevity, and it's yours to take home that evening. If you'd like any optional studio refinements after the wedding, that can be arranged — but my aim is that you leave with a finished artwork in hand.

Cancellation & Refund Policy▼
The deposit represents a commitment from the couple (or the person gifting the painting) and ensures that your date is reserved exclusively for you. Please note that all deposits are non-refundable. However, in the event of a cancellation, it can be converted into a voucher of equal value to be used toward a future painting. This voucher may be applied to a studio painting commission at any time. By submitting the deposit, you acknowledge and agree to this policy.
Artist's Service Terms▼
Important: These are the artist's service-specific terms. The platform's Terms & Conditions always take precedence.
By commissioning a live wedding painting, the client acknowledges and agrees to the artist’s unique artistic vision and interpretation in creating the final piece. While every effort is made to capture the essence and beauty of the moment, artistic style, composition, and details are at the discretion of the artist.
Clients may request modifications before the application of varnish. Any requested changes will incur an additional fee, starting from £50, depending on the complexity of the adjustments. Once the varnish has been applied, further modifications are not advisable, as they may compromise the integrity and longevity of the artwork. If changes are still requested after varnishing, the client assumes full responsibility for any potential risks, including cracking, discoloration, or other unforeseen reactions over time.
In the event that the painting is not fully completed during the live event and must be brought back to the artist’s studio for finishing, the completion process may take several months. As the artist’s primary work is performed live and multiple projects are handled concurrently, the client agrees to allow the artist sufficient time to complete the work without pressure or requests for updates, as rushing may negatively impact the creative process and extend the timeline further.
The Artist retains the right to capture and share photos and videos of the painting and the painting process at the wedding, including images featuring the bride and groom, venue, and guests, for use on social media and promotional platforms. This right remains in effect unless the Artist receives a written request from the Client specifying restrictions on such use.
By proceeding with the booking, the client agrees to these terms.
