Frequently Asked Questions
-
Do you paint from photos?
Depending on schedule constraints, yes I will accept painting commission requests from photos. Please visit the booking page for an estimated quote.
-
What do you normally paint?
We can discuss any moment you’d like (ceremony kiss/exit, first dance, etc). I can also paint from a pre-existing photo of your choose (engagement photos, first look, etc). I will typically work from photos take of the moment you are looking for, which allows me to set up anywhere that makes sense according to your wedding plan.
-
What is the process like?
I will arrive before the start of the ceremony or reception to set up and take a photo of the moment discussed during the consultation. I will paint elements of what I can before the moment begins, and use photos of the moment itself to continue painting at the reception so guests can enjoy watching the progress as the party goes on. My goal is to complete or get 75% of the painting finished by the end of the event, but if needed I will take it back to the studio for some extra love and attention, before scheduling pick-up or shipping from my studio in La Palma, California.
