Frequently Asked Questions
-
Who is included in my painting?
Only the couple getting married will be featured in your painting. If you are looking for a painting that features other family members, guests, pets, etc., then my painting services might not be what you are looking for. I specialize in intimate, couple-only paintings to capture the love being celebrated on your wedding day.
-
What kind of paint do you use?
I use professional-grade acrylic paint and varnish to give you the best quality painting. The canvas is professional gallery-wrapped canvas.
-
Why do you need to take photos?
To give you the best-quality painting and achieve true likeness to the married couple, I work from photos as reference. It is important to capture your love on the day! I will need a maximum of 30 minutes to take photos and review them with you before I begin painting.
-
Will you travel?
Right now, I am only able to paint on Long Island. An additional travel charge of $300 will be added to travel to NYC (all boroughs) or the East End of Long Island (farther East than Riverhead).
-
How long will it take to get my final painting?
On the date of your wedding, you will see your painting come to life! After your wedding, I take your painting back and work on your painting for up to 1 additional hours to make it the best it can be! From your wedding date, it will take approximately 4 weeks during June through August and approximately 6 weeks during September through May to receive your final painting.

Do paintings come framed?
Unfortunately I do not provide framing services.
