Live Event Sketching
Live sketching is an interactive illustration experience that unfolds in real time during your event. Guests are individually photographed upon request, and each portrait is thoughtfully illustrated on-site—creating a personalized keepsake they can take home before the evening ends.
Fully colored, single-figure sketches are completed in approximately 7–9 minutes, depending on the complexity of the outfit and details. Black-and-white shaded illustrations are also available and can be completed more quickly. To ensure as many guests as possible are accommodated, illustrations created during the event are limited to single or double figures.
Guests are welcome to return later in the event to collect their finished artwork. If there are special individuals you would like prioritized—such as a host, VIP, or family member—please share those details in advance so they can be thoughtfully included.
Weddings
Live wedding sketching adds a refined and meaningful touch to your celebration. From capturing the bride and groom to illustrating beautifully dressed guests, each sketch becomes a one-of-a-kind favor your guests will truly treasure. The experience is both entertaining and elegant—something guests gather around, photograph, and remember long after the day is over. If you would like a portrait of the couple created during the reception, arrangements can be made in advance to ensure it is completed.
Luxury Brand Activations
For fashion brands and corporate events, live illustration becomes both entertainment and elevated brand engagement. Whether at a store opening, product launch, influencer event, or experiential activation, guests receive a custom fashion sketch that feels personal, shareable, and aligned with your brand aesthetic. Illustrations can incorporate branded elements, event themes, or custom paper treatments, creating a memorable takeaway that extends the life of your event well beyond the moment.
