Here’s a little look at what I offer as a watercolorist and live wedding and event painter! While I am based in Southern Michigan most of my events take me to Grand Rapids, Benton Harbor, Holland, Traverse City, Petoskey, Detroit, and Ann Arbor. I will travel anywhere your celebration takes me! If any of my work resonates with your vibe and you could see it your wedding or event, I’d love to dive deeper into your vision and what it looks like for me to be there. If you’re looking for a creative yet organized vendor who loves to celebrate, I’m your girl! 📸 @jacklyncat #livepainter #liveweddingpainter #guestportraits #michigan #weddingplanning

A wedding favor that’s actually worth the investment? Live guest portraits is the answer. It’s the gift that keeps on giving! Because every time someone walks into that guest’s house and asks about the portrait, they tell the story of your celebration. They relive it. They share it. They keep your celebration alive. That’s the power of guest portraits. Not just a moment. Something long lasting! If you want your event to be the one people never stop talking about, DM me and let’s connect and make it happen. #weddingguestportraits #guestportraits #liveweddingpainting #weddingplanning #uniqueweddingideas

Final painting results from the Markley wedding! This live wedding painting was thoughtfully created to highlight the lush greenery, the charming chapel architecture, and the natural landscape that reflected their celebration so beautifully. Other than including themselves, these elements were important to M & T. When I’m booked as a live wedding painter, I collaborate closely with my couples. Especially those who value intentional details, have a clear vision, and appreciate artful, timeless keepsakes. Whether you know exactly what elements you want included or you simply have an overall aesthetic in mind, I make sure your painting reflects the moments and scenery that matter most to you. My goal is to create an heirloom quality watercolor painting that beautifully captures your wedding day with artistry, elegance, and the meaningful details you’ve so carefully planned. Eternally grateful to get to do this for couples! #liveweddingpainter #michigan #watercolor #uniqueweddingideas

This year, I made education a priority and it’s already showing up in my work. I’m about to start my third class at @katesartschool . I began with drawing, moved into charcoal, and next up, acrylic. Kate’s voice is in my head every time I pick up a pencil now, “if your drawing is right, your painting will be right.” I still try to make it to life drawing on Mondays when I can. Drawing and painting models I feel keeps those live painting muscles alive and I let be connecting with the other artists. 💪🏼 Keep going & growing! #artclasses #lifedrawingclass #liveweddingpainter

Let’s be real… Guest Portraits are for you just as much as they are for the guests! The couple or host always get a loose portrait of themselves making it a keepsake for all! DM your event date and guest count and I’ll confirm my availability. Venue: @the_dixboro_project #guestportraits #uniqueweddingideas #guestfavors #livepainter #annarbor

You could run a photo through an app and call it a watercolor. Or you could have an artist at your celebration, brush in hand, painting the moment while you’re still in it. One of those gets passed down through generations. You already know which one. Content credit: @the.butterfly.effect_ Venue: @theclairwoodestate #liveweddingpainting #uniqueweddingideas #michigan

Last night we had some fun partnering together to paint about 200 guests live and it was awesome! If you have an event with a high guest count, that you would like guest portraits for, our talented team of professional artists would love to be considered. Reach out with your event date to check availability! #guestfavor #guestportraits #livepainter #michiganartist

Guest Portrait favors are hand painted commissions for every one of your guests, that they will deeply value! My packages are designed so that anyone who wants one can get one, leaving no one out. This makes it a true favor and gift for your guests. With typical favors, you invest money into them, not everyone takes them, and next thing you know you’re going home with 100+ [insert favorite favor of your choice here]. I find that about 90% of guests take advantage of live guest portraits! None get left behind and your investment paid off because everyone continues to talk about long after the day of! What’s not finished live is completed in the studio with love and care. If you want to make the most of you your budget for favors I’d love to share more about the process and package options for your celebration! #liveweddingpainter #guestportraits #weddingplanning #michigan uniqueweddingideas

🤠Take it from Gary! This wonderful gentleman was so interested in what I was doing (live painting at a wedding) and I think he says it best. This is a way to preserve your memories! And also “this is how it was done before cameras”. Live wedding painting is just as much guest entertainment as it is what I just mentioned above. It’s a conversation starter and a touch point where guests check in throughout the evening. I’d live to preserve more memories in art, if you’re into this option! #liveweddingpainter #weddingplanning #michigan
