WOW!

I am so glad Julia was a part of my wedding. I asked her to capture our first dance as well as a few key family members surrounding us on the edge of the dance floor. Our guests were very impressed as Julia was painting as our reception was going on. Even better, I now have this amazing moment in time forever captured. I hope our future generations can enjoy this painting as much as we do. i picked it up a week later and it looked perfect!! Thank you Julia!

AMAZING talent and wonderful to work with!

When wedding planning, hiring a live painter was one of the few things my husband and I disagreed on. He wasn't sure if it was worth the extra cost, but boy did Julia prove him wrong! The piece of art she created is absolutely stunning, she was kind and conscientious to work with, and guests were in awe of the spectacle of her painting it right there at the reception. Her price point was very fair and worth every penny for both having her there at the wedding and also the keepsake we keep forever So happy hiring Julia is now the first "I told you so" of our marriage, LOL!

Beautiful & Unique Wedding Gift

I first saw Julia in action at a family wedding earlier this year and thought this would be the perfect gift for our beautiful friend & her new husband's first dance at their reception. I love how the painting turned out AND she was able to incorporate our friend group into the background crowd! Julia is an absolute pleasure! If you're looking for a beautiful and unique gift look no further! This is it!

Live Painting

Julia did a great job making us a live painting of our wedding kiss. She was very professional and our picture was done by the end of the reception.

the BEST live wedding painter!!

Julia was the most amazing live wedding painter- please do yourself a favor and run, donโ€™t walk, to book an event with her. She was professional, kind, accommodative and easy to work with, but best of all she brought to life our experience with a once in a lifetime painting! She captured a moment and made it last forever & along the way interacted with our guest to keep them entertained.

Favorite Wedding Treasure!!

Julia painted our ceremony scene for us and it is our favorite way to display our wedding memories (better than the photography, etc). It is BEAUTIFUL. On top of that, it was such a fun feature to have a painter working during the reception. Our guests loved seeing her work! The cherry on top is that Julia is professional, working with the venue directly where needed and of course kind and lovely! Thank you, Julia!

Amazing Artist!

My husband and I were on the fence about hiring a live wedding painter but I am SO glad we did! Our guests were very impressed and we have a beautiful canvas painting of our first dance to treasure forever. It was an absolute pleasure working with Julia throughout the whole process. She took the time to research our venue and made suggestions on different moments that could be captured. On the day of the wedding, she arrived early to assess the layout/lighting and to set up before the guests arrived. She worked on the background during the ceremony/cocktail hour and then was able to finalize the scene during reception. After our wedding, she took the painting back to her studio to put on the finishing touches. It was ready to pick up so quickly that we weren't even back from our honeymoon yet! Most other vendors we had spoken with needed a couple weeks to finish! We are so happy with our decision to work with Julia. We highly recommend her for weddings or other special events!
