As a bride there were so many things I was worried about leading up to and on the wedding day but Lois truly made me feel at ease every step of the way. She was very responsive pre wedding, completely present the day of our wedding- ready to celebrate us, initiated conversation with our photographer on getting the best shot without delaying our timeline, and went above and beyond to provide not just a service but entertainment and connection as well. Watching her canvas go from blank to the heirloom worthy piece of art (we now have hanging above our bed) is something our friends and family are still talking about! Not only does Lois capture your day in ways that photos can't, she also brings such an incredibly delightful presence along with her talent.

Get INSTANT pricing on my WEBSITE! With over a 1M views on social media, I'm thankful to see such a positive response to my artwork. My whole life I have loved art! My first day of Kindergarten, my parents asked me what I hoped to do at school that day. I responded by saying, "I want to paint, paint a picture for my sister." I studied art in college and received a Bachelor of Fine Arts in Art Education from Tennessee Tech University in 2006. I worked as an art educator for several years and as a full time independent artist since 2012. I have been featured by a number of podcasts, magazines, TV, as a keynote speaker, and across the globe.

“Heather changed the vibe of my entire wedding day. This painting experience was gifted to us by my mother in law - and not only is it now a forever keepsake, but it was a TOTAL guest experience. Checking in on our painting throughout the night was so much fun. Our friends and family loved it so much. Working with Heather before our wedding was so fun - we hopped on the phone a week before because she wanted to completely understand my vision and hopes for our painting - and she delivered MORE THAN I COULD HAVE EVER IMAGINED. She was absolutely without a doubt our favorite vendor. Heather was a joy to work with. Not only did she bring such incredible energy to our day, but she also went above and beyond to film so much iPhone content that I would have otherwise NEVER had of our wedding day. She (discreetly) filmed our vows, our grand entrance, my walk down the aisle, etc. I truly would have hired her just for this alone. I was so so soooo thankful to receive all of these (total surprise) from her the next day. This is something that makes Heather stand out amongst other vendors - this did not by any means fall under her promises to deliver but she did it anyway which I think speaks volumes to the person she is. She was so happy to just be apart of our day and capture it for us. If you are on the fence about a live painting experience - this is your sign, BOOK HER ASAP!!! We are forever Heathers biggest fans.”

Hi, I'm Laura! I am a lifelong artist with 3+ years experience drawing people live for events. Here is an overview of my process in case it's helpful! I typically arrive before the wedding reception and stay for the duration, taking photos of guests as they come by my table and painting them throughout the reception. For those whose portraits are finished while I am there, I will display them at my table for guests to pick up at anytime! Typically I can paint 50-60 people during a 5 hour reception. I will finish any remaining portraits within 2 weeks of the wedding and mail them to you to send out with your "Thank You" cards!

“We were lucky to have Laura's live sketches for 250 guests. Her artwork makes the perfect memento. We decided to add this fun, unique experience in place of a photobooth. Laura was so easy to work with, bringing talent and personality to the experience, organizing time slots and fulfilling sketches for many guests in the time she had. Her live sketches were a top mention in our guest feedback surveys. In the age of AI, it was so much fun to experience the gift of authentic art and humanity, with a unique keepsake to remember our event.”

In addition she offers handcrafted calligraphy and pressed flower namecards, menus and wedding favors, variations of which she has created for brands such as Dior and Miu Miu, that will become personal treasures to revisit for years to come.

“We wanted our friends and family to leave the wedding with something they would cherish and we made the right call by hiring Jackie because her illustrations were a big hit with all our guests! We had such a lovely time working with her. She was extremely easy to work with, always communicated well, and made sure to check in with us throughout the process. We will definitely be working with Jackie again for future events :)”
