How to Choose a Moment for Stunning Artwork

Make it Timeless

Choosing a pose for your work of art can be intimidating. With 15+ years of experience making custom commissioned artwork, I have a keen ability to discern what is most important to you and how to capture it on canvas..

  • We start with a conversation. How did you meet? What do you love about one another? Is it important to have family in the painting, or are we looking for that little look you give one another when you share a thought?

  • A photograph tends to have crisp edges and saturated colors. This is not a replacement for their services- rather, a different artistic lens and interpretation focusing on emotions, color, and expression.

  • My signature style is dreamy and soft, informed by master impressionist painters like Monet, Renoir, and Van Gogh. They too sought to look beyond the photo and into the spirit of the subject. They saw nature as an integral part of the spirit, using light to cast focus and warmth, conveying emotions as well as the true appearance.

I intuitively bring your vision to life, capturing the essence of your style, emotions, and story in every brushstroke. Whether you want a romantic, elegant feel or a bold, vibrant energy, I tailor each piece to reflect the unique atmosphere you envision so you can treasure your heirloom piece of artwork forever.

You spent hours obsessing over your venue. Where is that intimate little corner of the yard under the 100 year old oak tree?

How about the stained glass windows casting a rainbow of colors over your white dress?
