Wedding Reception Silhouettes at a stand-out Delaware venue...

On a beautiful fall late afternoon, I headed south to Loblolly Acres, to cut silhouettes at a wedding reception which came to me as a result of being in a wedding fair at that very venue!

The bride and groom opted to have me cut duplicate silhouettes, so that the guests would take one as a wedding favor, and the other would go into their guestbook (peek at that in a video at the end of this post!) Usually I also do one of the couple, from photos prior to the big day, but they also chose to have me do one from an official wedding photo once they get them after the wedding.

Below are some of the guests, I didn't take too many photos as it was BUSY!

Sunset on the patio!

Here's a look in the silhouette guestbook!

Thanks for having me!!!

Emerald and diamond wedding caricatures!

This afternoon wedding reception was booked via The Bash almost a year and a half ago!  But it was sooo worth the wait!

The groom had me do a studio caricature from photos, so they could have a fun sign-in. The wedding colors were emerald green and silver---I love how it looks as a background!

The reception was held in a historic hotel in Center City Philly--The Sylvania's Arts Ballroom. I was set up near the bar, in an elegant sun-drenched lounge:

Once the dances and toasts were over, it was CARICATURE TIME!

This last lady was drawn as the hotel turned up the lights and started to clean up/get ready for the next event!!

Fabulous night, thanks to my wonderful client for having me!

Beautiful Broadway-themed Bat Mitzvah (with caricatures!) on the lawn

What a view, before the festivities started! I was situated in one half of this smaller tent, along with a t-shirt airbrusher. 

The main party was in this huge tent right next to my spot.

Because there were so many guests, I opted for my line-drawing mode of caricature...no shading and FAST!

And now for the guest of honor:

She liked it!

The night was noteworthy for me in a big way too...for the first time, I met my second-cousin-once-removed, Taylor Cotilla, who was the photographer for the evening AND who had recommended me to the client!

One of my sets of great-grandparents are her great-great-grandparents...

Thank you and goodnight!!

A fabulous day---thanks for having me!
