For years I’ve painted people wherever life brings them—at markets, events, music sessions, and street corners—capturing fleeting moments in brush and line. Now, I’m bringing that same passion to weddings.

This new artistic direction is bringing together skills I have acquired along years of experience. The end goal? Creating a one-of-a-kind artwork that holds the spirit of your day.

Imagine a painting that grows alongside your celebration: brushstrokes forming as vows are spoken, colors deepening as the music rises, Details layered out as the light fades out.
By the End of the night, you get something different, a keepsake created in real time and forever infused with the joy of your wedding.

I’d love to paint your special day for you.

Two lucky couples will have their wedding painted live in watercolor — free of charge.

1st Prize: A2 scene with either first look or the first dance

2nd Prize: A3 with either the ceremony or a first look

An original painting will be created on the day, capturing a part of your celebration as it happens.

‘Having a live painter at our wedding was one of the best decisions we made. Watching the artwork unfold throughout the night was not only mesmerizing but also created so much excitement and engagement among our guests. Everyone loved seeing the painting take shape, and it became a real talking point of the evening. The best part was being able to go home with a one-of-a-kind treasure that captured the magic of our day in such a personal and meaningful way. We couldn’t recommend Laurie highly enough.’
