In a three-hour session I will typically complete between thirty to forty portraits, depending on the pace of the room. I work at the speed the experience calls for — not rushing, but never idle. If you have specific guests you'd like prioritised, that's worth discussing at enquiry stage.

Each portrait is drawn on A5 or Legal 350gsm card — Large enough to frame properly, small enough to slip into a bag at the end of the night. Every portrait goes into a protective hand-written envelope before it's handed over.

No. Portraits take around five to ten minutes and guests don't need to hold a pose. They can chat, hold a drink, turn to talk to someone. Part of what makes the work interesting is drawing people as they are, in motion.

Both. I work across the full range of British wedding settings — marquees, barn conversions, country houses, hotel ballrooms, walled gardens.

I am based in Kent and work regularly across Kent, London, Surrey and East Sussex. Beyond that, travel is considered case by case.

Yes — the minimum is two hours. This is partly practical (setup and travel require it) and partly about quality. The experience is designed to be woven into the day, not slotted in around the edges.

Neither. Charcoal and ink portraits that are clearly of the person — rooted in their features — but rendered with a line quality that feels drawn rather than photographic. Warm, observational, and made by hand.
