My husband and I have an appreciation for art. When we saw Mark’s work on Instagram (@WeddingPainter), we knew we had to have him capture our first dance at our wedding. Working with Mark is straightforward and seamless. His skills are unmatched and he brings a ton of flexibility to his artwork.

Mark creates an amazing wedding experience for all. Mark set up his station near the open bar, perfectly placed to entertain our guest’s curiosities and questions during cocktail hour and throughout the wedding reception.

Mark blends right in with the venue, taking photos of key family members to incorporate into his end product. He completes most of the painting during the event, then takes it back to his studio to complete the final touches. During this time, he communicates frequently with updates to ensure the painting captured what we envisioned. When the painting was complete, we met up with him in person. In addition, we used a picture of the painting as a thank you card for our guests.

My husband and I always wanted a live painter for our wedding and we were a bit picky when we were looking at different vendors. But we immediately loved Mark's work and were so happy we went with him! He was lovely to work with before/during/after the big day and even delivered the final painting to us because he happened to be in town. Mark even added our pets to the picture so it's like they were there with us. If any couple were looking for a wedding painter, I'd highly recommend working with Mark -- you won't regret it!

We hired Mark for our wedding and it was one of the best decisions. He showed up on time, was professional, and created a live wedding experience that our guests loved. He was friendly, talkative, and you can tell he loves what he does. He was able to incorporate our dog into our portrait as well! Thanks Mark!
