Description
Unlike many wedding painters who fill the canvas with detailed backgrounds and scenery, I put the focus where it belongs: on the two of you. Working in oils, my style is impressionistic and rich in color, built to bring out the emotion and romance of your day rather than simply recreate it. This isn't a snapshot of your wedding, it's an investment piece, an heirloom that only grows more meaningful with every year it lives in your home.
My specialty is color and portraiture: capturing the two of you with a warmth and vibrancy that makes the piece feel alive, not just accurate. Whether you want your ceremony captured in full or a closer, more intimate portrait of just the two of you, my goal is always the same — a timeless piece built around your connection, not just your surroundings.
How It Works
Step 1: Planning your painting (before the day)
We'll have a consultation to talk through your vision and the moment you'd like captured.
Step 2: Early arrival + pre-painting
I arrive a few hours ahead of your event to set up, take reference photos with the two of you, and begin painting before your guests arrive — capturing the atmosphere and feel of the space from the start.
Step 3: Live painting through your reception
I continue painting live throughout your reception, working toward completing the piece by the end of the night.
Step 4: Studio finish + delivery
Some finishing touches are occasionally completed afterward in my studio to bring the piece to full richness, then it's delivered to your home.

Reviews
5.0 (6)I can't even describe how happy I am with Ryan and his work! When I saw live painters at a wedding a few years ago, that is the one thing I wanted. My venue (Christmas House Inn) recommended him. He was the sweetest/kindest person, very professional, and did amazing work. ALL of my guest said how amazing he was and that they've never seen anything like it. I love how the painting turned out and it is a lifelong memory. If you're looking for something unique at your wedding with a product you can have forever, don't miss the opportunity to book him.
Ryan is such an amazing person. When our initial wedding painter fell through a month before our wedding, he was so kind and thoughtful with helping set up our vision for our ceremony. I will never be able to express how much gratitude I have for him honoring my husband, and I's first kiss and including my wonderful dog who had passed away just shortly before our wedding. This is a keepsake that we will cherish for our entire marriage. Thank you so much, Ryan.

About the Artist
I'm Ryan, an oil painter based in Los Angeles, California. My background isn't classical — it started with sketches on dorm room water jugs and grew from there, eventually leading me to oils, which I've been developing since 2017. I specialize in live wedding painting with a strong emphasis on the couple themselves, working in an impressionistic style with rich, vibrant color. I'm based in Los Angeles and available to travel for weddings across the US.
