The New Vacation Portrait!

With a Sketch of Life portrait you can literally have anything drawn - but sometimes people need a little inspiration as to what fun a customized portrait can be and do.  I felt so inspired after a trip earlier this year to Disneyland with my family.  It was both my kids first times, and of course we took a ton of pictures.  But you know what? Pictures don't tell the whole story behind situations or why something happened.  That's what makes a Sketch of Life so special.  With it's special combination of quirky pictures, text and placement, it creates a fun unique portrait that is a great centerpiece, conversation starter, and relates stories without having to swipe through hundreds of pictures! Win Win for everyone!

I mean, look how cute this is!?! Every time I look at just this one scrapbook-sized portrait, I am reminded of all the fun we had at Disneyland.  How my kids freaked out at the first character they saw, which characters we did see, my son's funny face in It's A Small World and how my daughter sang the song the rest of the day.  Regular old camera pictures just aren't the same!

So if your family has had a fun vacation and you want to remember all the fun, adventures, good times, bad times and funny times, contact me to get your Sketch of Life Vacation Portrait started today!

               

         

     

Kelsey and Morgan's Wedding!

I recently got to do the Wedding Portrait for Kelsey and Morgan.  Their wedding was so cute with a flamingo and pineapple theme.  Such fun themes really allows for adorable portraits!  I love being able to let the subjects personality show through and draw little tidbits that explain them or their relationship!

The best part is hearing the excitement from the couple as they read their Sketch of Life together and laugh and point out things they love.  Makes my day!

Wedding Portrait: Dallan and Jessica

This past weekend Dallan and Jessica got married.  I was able to do a wedding portrait for them and can I tell you how awesome it is to see it framed and part of their reception line?! So adorable.  Jessica was so happy with the portrait because it captured her favorite part of her wedding dress: the back!

I love doing weddings and capturing all the love the couples have for each other!

Wedding Portrait: Kendra and Jake

Wedding portraits are so fun to do!  I love getting to know the bride and groom better and then creating something for them that they will treasure forever.  My most recent wedding portrait was of Kendra and Jake Wright.  It is 12x12 - perfect for framing or scrapbooking - and done in Prismacolor Pencils.

A Wedding Story

The Wedding Story is a lot of fun to do.  First off, both the bride and the groom fill out the questionnaire and they don't share their answers!  Then I get to comb through all their answers and piece them together to make an infographic that depicts the wedding, and each person as an individual.  The best part is when the bride and groom open the drawing up together, they get to learn new things about their spouse they may not have known before!  It's really super fun to see!

The wedding infographic covers everything from favorite movies and food to words of advice and what to do if the other person is mad.  The best part is that you can completely customize it to fit you!  The characters are all designed off of reference pictures that you send me so when someone glances at the portrait they will without a doubt know who it is supposed to be of!
