Scrap the photobooth... Hire a live illustrator instead! 

I offer a unique experience to any wedding/event, creating a form of entertainment for guests as well as beautiful hand-painted keepsakes for them to take home. 

I offer the most competitive prices as I fully understand that weddings are already extremely expensive! I also offer bespoke time slots as opposed to restrictive packages so you can fit a live illustrating service perfectly into your special day.

My costs are as follows:
● 3 HOURS: £275 (approx 22 guests)
● 4 HOURS: £325 (approx 28 guests)
● 5 HOURS: £375 (approx 35 guests)
● 6 HOURS: £425 (approx 42 guests)
● 7 HOURS: £475 (approx 48 guests)
● 8 HOURS: £525 (approx 54 guests)

 

The number of guests I paint per hour is an approximate number I suggest to clients but can sometimes exceed these numbers depending on the level of detail in peoples outfits and whether you would prefer facial features drawn. It takes around 8 minutes to illustrate each individual guest, around 15 minutes to illustrate a couple, around 25 minutes to illustrate a family of four etc.​

Every couple/host will receive a portrait after their event (dispatched within 2 weeks). This allows for me to put a little more detail and time into your illustration and means that I can focus on your guests on the actual day and paint as many of your loved ones as possible.

A non-refundable deposit of £99 is required to secure your date and is deducted from the cost of the painting hours, which can be paid at a later date.

 

If accommodation costs are required then these will need to be paid upfront alongside the £99 deposit.

Additional travel and accommodation costs are dependant upon location. I travel to most of the UK.

Full costs will need to be paid latest 4 weeks prior to the wedding/event.

Watercolour Live Illustrator wedding guest portraits
I was so shocked when comparing Holly's pricing to other illustrators out there, she was easily half the price of others in the same field. But my goodness we were so impressed with her talent and the level of detail she puts into every painting. She was fantastic! Our couples portrait we received after our wedding too was breathtaking!
