Fall weather- rustic barn wedding caricatures!

Two grooms celebrated their long-awaited wedding day on a beautiful and balmy autumnal afternoon. I did their caricature beforehand from photos, so it would be on display during the reception, and they had a caricature reveal before their guests arrived. Click here to see ambiance and reaction!

Here's my view of the ceremony from my perch in the barn!

After the ceremony, I did "stealth caricatures" during the outdoor cocktail hour. Guests thought I was just someone attached to the barn wedding venue as I walked around with a clipboard, til I sidled up to them and handed them a caricature!

Here are a few from the dozen I did in stealth mode.

When I drew this lady's hubby, she knew what was up since I had drawn her earlier...

so I was able to get this posed photo. ;-)

Then everyone went into the beautifully decorated barn, where I was already set up to continue 

with traditional caricatures at my easel.

And here are most of the guests I drew!

Thank you for having me Nathan and Bobby and CONGRATS!

Update: 10-18-24. One of the grooms left the the most thorough review I've ever received, on my Google page. Thank you Nathan!!

Emily is not only an amazing artist but a great team player when working with a multifaceted event like a wedding! She did an amazing job capturing us for our couple’s caricature. She did this before the event and used our social media platforms and some photos we sent her to make this- not only did it capture our essence amazingly, but it meant we could be present for guests during our reception instead of sitting for her to draw in the moment. Moreover, the amount of time and detail she was able to put into the caricature of us was 10x that than if we sat day of for her. She did “stealth caricatures” for us during cocktail hour - EVERY GUEST LOVED THIS! For the hour she went around randomly picking people and drawing them, then presented it to them before fading back into the background and sneakily picking the next guest. They all turned out so well - great detail, capturing smiles, unique features and more! Can’t recommend this idea enough as it was new and fresh for a wedding. We enjoyed seeing her draw various guests during the reception in the more traditional way. It was a unique flare to our wedding and also gave guests additional take home gifts to remember the day. Communication was always professional and quick, not to mention easy. Her work speaks for itself and truly is a memory we will keep for a lifetime!
