Live illustrations that capture your people, your moment, your magic.
For weddings, celebrations and events worth remembering. Live illustration that brings people together, captures their personality, and adds something truly special to the occasion.
Hey, I’m Jess, your Live Illustrator!
I create live illustrations that capture your guests in the moment, and turn them into a personalised keepsake they will cherish long after your event is over.
Whether it’s your wedding day or an event worth celebrating, I’m here to capture the people, the little details, and the moments that make it yours. Each portrait is created live, giving your guests something a little unexpected, a little personal, and something they’ll love taking home.
There’s something really special about the way live illustration brings people together. Guests gather, watch each piece come to life, and share in the excitement of seeing themselves on paper. It becomes more than just part of the event…it becomes a moment people carry with them.

And the best part? Your guests get to take home a portrait of their very own.
Each illustration is created individually, capturing a little piece of the person receiving it and giving them something they might never have thought to expect from your celebration.
To me, that’s what makes live illustration so special. It’s not just about having something fun happening on the day, it’s about giving your guests something that was made just for them.
And honestly, what’s better than having a little piece of a day you’ll all remember for years to come?

Live Illustrations…Distinctly Personal, Uniquely You.
Capturing people is my favourite part of what I do…especially faces.
After years of drawing portraits, I’ve become a little obsessed with the details that make someone them. I love playing with shapes, expressive features and stylised silhouettes to bring each portrait to life, while still capturing that all-important likeness.
My style strikes that sweet spot between artistic and recognisable, so your guests can look at their portrait and think, “Oh my goodness, that’s actually me!”
Love a little personality in your portraits? I think we’ll get along beautifully!
Let’s create something your guests will never forget.

Guests simply stop by for a quick photo, then get straight back to enjoying the celebration. I'll work from the portrait while they party, dance, and make memories with their favourite people!
Once their portrait is complete, it will be displayed at my table ready to collect before they leave. It's designed to be a seamless part of the day, with no sitting for a portrait required.

As a general guide, I can illustrate approximately 10 guests per hour, or around 5 couples. The exact number can vary depending on outfits and details, with intricate patterns, etc, taking longer to illustrate.

There's no need to stress about making sure every single guest receives a portrait. Live illustration is as much about the experience as it is the finished artwork, and not every guest will choose to have their portrait drawn on the day.
If there are particular guests you'd love illustrated, I recommend creating a priority list. Should you decide you'd like additional portraits completed after the celebration, Extended Guest Coverage can always be arranged afterwards.

Nothing!*
I generally bring my own table and chair, so I simply ask for a spot with good lighting and access to a power point if available.
*If I'm unable to bring my own setup, a trestle-sized table and chair is all I need.
