One of my favorite weddings that I’ve ever painted was on a Chicago River cruise. I painted the couple dancing as we floated down the Chicago River with the city twinkling all around us. It was incredibly romantic. That’s just one of many amazing Chicago area weddings that I’ve had the privilege to be a part of. Whether your getting married at an iconic city landmark or in the Chicago suburbs I would love the opportunity to create a special painting to remind you of your wedding day for decades to come.

I have great relationships with many Chicagoland venues, wedding vendors and event planners to insure that your experience with me runs smoothly.

My family surprised my husband and I with a live painting from Kristina for our wedding and I can’t recommend her enough!!! She’s amazing! I will treasure this gift forever! It’s truly a one of a kind experience & everyone loved/raved about it!

What to expect at the wedding:

I will arrive to the wedding dressed for the occasion and set up my easel about 1 hour before guests arrive. There is no need to slow down for me. You can live in your moment and I will take photos and video to use for the details during the event.

I will set up in the area of your choosing to finish the painting over the next 5 hours. If your guests approach me, I will enjoy talking to them about what I am doing.

I will pack up and leave with the painting to add finishing touches and protective varnish. I will deliver or ship it back to you once it’s dry and ready to be hung on the wall about 4-6 weeks after the wedding.

Booking is easy!

You can message me to find out if your wedding date is available. I will send you a custom quote based on the location of your wedding. To finalize your booking I send you a painting agreement based on your wedding details and a link to pay a 25% deposit to reserve your wedding date.
