About This Service

Some moments deserve more than a photograph. Live illustration captures your guests the way they felt that evening — dressed, present, celebrated — in a hand-drawn portrait they carry home.

Wedding Guest Illustration

A personalized live art experience where guests receive elegant hand-drawn portraits as keepsakes from your celebration.

Each guest sits for a few minutes while their look is captured in a stylish, fashion-inspired illustration. It adds warmth, interaction, and a genuinely personal touch to your wedding day — the kind guests talk about on the way home.
