Love, Laughter, and Live Illustration
I knew you had great taste
Stuck in the Pinterest Scroll?
I see you.
You’re curating the perfect event—every detail, meticulously planned—but something still feels… off.
Every time you hunt for that * wow * factor, you hit a wall:
A flood of same-old ideas
A setup that’s been done (and done, and done...)
Decor that feels too… safe
So you shelve it, waiting for inspiration to strike…
Ring a bell?
Cut the overwhelm.
Because what you’re looking for ISN’T more stuff.
It’s an experience.
It’s a feeling your guests carry home with them — not just a night, but a memory. That’s where live illustration changes everything. Live fashion sketches = Instant guest delight.
Frame-worthy keepsakes.
A talking point they'll still be raving about.

SET THE SCENE
-
I’ll arrive 30 minutes before your fabulous event to set up shop.
Outdoors? Gorgeous — as long as the weather plays nice.
A dry, shaded spot keeps the paper crisp and the sketches flowing.Here’s how it unfolds:
Guests have a quick photo snapped, join the waitlist, and then mix, mingle, and live their best lives while I sketch behind the scenes.
Prefer to linger and watch the magic unfold? That’s part of the fun too.
Got VIPs?
Let me know before the event and I’ll make sure they glide to the front of the queue.Big crowd? Big love — and no stress.
If we don’t sketch everyone live, I manage guest expectations onsite — so everyone stays part of the experience (and no one leaves disappointed).If you’d like extra guests sketched after the event, we can absolutely do that —
additional post-event sketches are available at $30 NZD per guest.All the joy, no unexpected charges — just a little more illustrated wonder to take home.
Curious? Let’s Sketch It Out
-
Each package includes a set number of promised illustrations.
I sketch as many guests as time allows onsite — and if any aren't completed live, I finish the rest after the event and post them to you, beautifully packaged and ready to share.If your guest list is larger than your package allows, no stress:
You can choose to purchase additional post-event sketches at $30 NZD per guest.
Or, if you'd prefer to set a firm cap, we’ll confirm your guest list before the event, and I’ll manage expectations onsite — so every guest knows exactly how it works.
Either way, the experience feels seamless, special, and considered — just the way it should.
-
Nope.
We’ll snap a quick reference photo and guests can keep mingling, sipping, and celebrating while I sketch. If you’d like a few seats at the station, go for it. -
A playful mix of markers and coloured pencils — bold, beautiful, and built to buzz.
-
Think stylish impressions — not passport photos.
We hand-draw base sketches beforehand for speed, then customise hair, eyes, skin, and outfits live on the day.
Lively, expressive, totally frame-worthy. -
A4 (210 × 297 mm) — the perfect size for framing, flaunting, or quietly admiring later.
