something to talk about...

It's more than just the artwork—it's the whole experience.

As your illustration comes to life, Christina engages with your guests, creating a connection that feels as natural as the drawing itself. With a genuine love for both people and art, Christina enjoys getting to know your guests while she illustrates them. There’s no need for posing or uncomfortable pauses—just the shared joy of being present together and celebrating this memorable event.

What is your artistic style?
My quick digital illustrations are hand drawn in my signature style and whimsy way, which is always flattering and complimentary of guests. I quickly capture the key details of outfits and hairstyles, wowing your guests when they instantly recognize themselves and fellow attendees at the wedding.

How many portraits can you paint at one event ?
On average, I can draw 1 guest in roughly five to six minutes. Please
take into account transition times between each guest and drawing.
I can draw about 4- 6 couples or 8 - 10 guests per hour.

What will guests leave with ?
Their are two options. Guests can either receive their custom drawing digitally by email or artist can print for guest.
Guests leave with their custom portrait that will be places in a plastic bag
for easy travel. Business card will be added inside.

What does pricing start at?
Pricing starts at $3,000.

How will guests find you ?
I set up a table with the guidance of the venue, wedding planner, and
couple with all of my supplies. Ideally, the table should be set up in a
high traffic area so guests can take advantage of the service. I like to
chat with the guests and learn about their outfits and stories.

Do guests need to hang around while you sketch them ?
It would be fun to chat while I paint but it is not
necessary. My assistant will snap a quick photo of
them as a reference for me and they can come back
around and pick up the print. I absolutely love to
have guests watch me work and enjoy hearing how
they know the couple.

What if I have a large wedding or event and would like all my guests painted?
I wish I had the capacity to paint everyone, unfortunately its just not possible :( Once I reach my capacity, I close my list. Unless otherwise agreed with my couple to do a post-event service, in this case I start a waiting list and continue to take guest photos and create the remaining illustrations in my studio. Please ask about this during the booking stage.

How do I book you for my event?
You can first contact me via the contact form on the website. I offer a free consultation to go over the information provided here and answer any questions. Once you are ready to book, a $450 refundable deposit is required to secure the date and I provide you with an agreement.
