Proposal for Live Painting and Live Guest Portrait Services
Congratulations on your upcoming Wedding Celebration!
I know there are a lot of choices when it comes to curating your wedding celebration. Mike likely recommended my services because either:
you are looking for a subtle and elegant form of entertainment
you would like a family heirloom from your wedding
you want to treat your guests to a personable experience and a favor they won’t throw away
you appreciate professionalism and quality
you have a unique vision for your day that can only be accomplished with paint
OR ALL of the Above!
Live Oil Painting
Wedding Portrait
22 x 28 inch Live Oil Painting
The Wedding Portrait will focus on you as the couple, set in the space you like best from your celebration.
$3500
Wedding Scene
24 x 36 inch Live Oil Painting
The Wedding Scene works well to capture the grandeur of your ceremony or reception spot. Include your family and/or wedding party, your curated decor and any element you’d like to remember fondly.
Make it a vertical painting for a grand portrait of the two of you. This size is very versatile and has the presence to hang on a larger wall or to fill a smaller one.
$4500
The Wedding Statement
30x40 inch Live Oil Painting
This size gives your imagination the space to play and room to tell the story of your day. Include all of the elements of your celebration that made it characteristically your celebration such as your fifty closest friends, an ornate ballroom, a sweeping vineyard view or we can make it a grand portrait of you and “your person”.
This piece will make a statement in any room. It works well above a mantel, a piano, couch or bed and will keep you coming back to find new details for years to come.
$5900

Kind words from Clients
- Bride, married at the U.S. Supreme Court Building
Jamie Peterson is extraordinary. She did a live painting of our wedding reception, which was enormous fun for all of our guests. It was a subtle, elegant and extremely unique form of entertainment. But it was also much more than that. Of all of the images captured that day, Jamie's gorgeous painting is the most enduring. The attention to detail and the sheer magnitude of the work is awe-inspiring.
