live guest portraits
Have an illustrator come and create on-the-spot portraits for your guests in ink and watercolor. Each portrait takes 5-6 minutes to complete and guests get to keep their portraits once completed. These are created on 9x6" high-quality watercolor paper and inserted into a clear plastic sleeve for protection. The option of having a custom event logo stamped on each paper is available for an additional cost.
Pricing
I charge a flat rate of $200 per hour for live guest portraits. This includes the cost of all the supplies that I will bring to create the portraits. I can complete 10-12 portraits an hour and always recommend booking as much time as you can so that every guests who wants a portrait can have one made.
Travel
Venues located more than 25 miles outside of Salt Lake City will be charged 50c per mile past the 25 mile radius and events that require a 3+ hour drive may be charged for overnight accommodations.
I am willing to travel to other states (or countries!). For out of state travel you may be quoted an additional fee to cover the cost of the flight to and from the event location, rental car or Uber, food while traveling, and overnight accommodations. Contact me to get a quote on how much travel to your event would cost.
Style
I provide several options for the style that the portraits can be created in. View the table below to see what styles you can select from. Options can be mixed and matched. If there is a style you don't see just let me know and I'll see if it's something I can do for your event!
Custom Stamp
Have the papers that each portrait will be created on be customized with a custom branded stamp for an additional $50 charge to your total cost. You can either send me a pre-made design that you would want to have on the papers or we can work together to create a custom design. View examples below for inspiration!
Previews from actual events
post - event portraits
Portraits don't just have to be done live! I can create portraits from photos that can be used as gifts at your event or sent in a thank you card. In-studio portrait requests may take up to 2-3 weeks to be created and will be shipped to you once completed. Style, sizing, and any custom logos on the portraits can be customized.
Pricing
The total cost will depend on how many portraits you would like me to create and how many people are in each portrait. I charge $20 for every portrait of 1-2 people and charge an additional $5 for each additional person/pet that is added to the portrait. I may also add an additional charge for shipping.
