THEIR DEETS

What do you do within your business to make it more accessible and inclusive?

I am in the process of creating a plain text brochure and I ensure alt text is enabled on my website. I come from a wedding venue background where I managed a venue and its EDI initiatives. Now I am starting my own business I am taking this knowledge and applying it where possible. I always use inclusive language, referring to couples as just that, rather than ‘bride and groom’. I also avoid language that genders individuals and I am an ally to the LGBTQIA+ community.

Best live concert you've ever attended?

Bon Iver or Don Broco, but I have just returned from being the artist liaison team leader at Arctangent Festival, which has been one of the best experiences I’ve had at a music event.

What is your favourite random fun fact?

Cows have best friends ❤️

I am a live wedding illustrator with a background in fashion illustration, working in loose watercolour, metallic ink and line. I set up at your venue on the day and paint and draw as your wedding unfolds. It's part entertainment, part art installation and always one of the most talked about elements of the day.

Guests love watching a piece of art come together in real time, and even more, they love being part of it. I'm sociable and chatty by nature, so as well as illustrating, I mingle, get to know your guests, hear their stories and make the whole experience feel personal and alive.

Every piece is one of a kind. Many guests frame their artwork afterwards, so what starts as entertainment on the day becomes a lasting keepsake. A genuinely unique memento that no photo booth or guest book can match. I will bring a unique touch, ensuring your wedding feels like it has its own artist-in-residence, and providing the couple and guests with artwork nobody else in the world has.

If you want a wedding day that's not just beautifully documented but genuinely entertaining to be at, I'd love to be part of it.

I cover anywhere in the UK but my closest areas are Gloucestershire, Wiltshire, Shropshire, Worcestershire, Herefordshire, Bristol, Birmingham.
