Seasonal keepsakes, painted by hand in my Seattle-area studio and live at your celebration

New this season

Live Ornament Portraits

Hand-painted watercolor portraits of the people (and pets) you love, sealed in a keepsake ornament made to hang on the tree every year.

For your event

I paint your guests live at your winter wedding or holiday party, and each portrait is sealed in a keepsake ornament: the favor guests actually keep. My assistant packages every ornament on-site, so guests take theirs home the same night.

As a gift

Send me a favorite photo of your family, your partner or your pet, and I’ll paint it into an ornament to give this season. Lovely for parents, newlyweds, first Christmases and pet lovers.

Personalized for you

Add custom text, such as names, a date or a short message, on the front or back of your ornament, depending on the style.

How It Works

  1. Reach out early

    Please book at least 3 weeks ahead so there’s time to source your ornaments.

  2. Choose your ornaments

    Ornament styles vary depending on availability. I’ll share this season’s options and any custom text you’d like.

  3. I paint them by hand

    Live at your event, or in my studio from your favorite photos.

  4. Ready to hang

    Each ornament is sealed, packaged and ready to give or take home.
