    Let Me Paint Your Wedding Day!

    Your Love Story On Canvas!

    Another Happy Couple!

    What is "Live Wedding Painting?"

    Simply put, I come to you or your loved one’s wedding and paint whatever special moment you’d like me to capture in real time! I bring all my own supplies: canvas, paint, brushes, easel, etc. The custom painting includes a scene of the newlyweds in their favorite wedding moment and all the lovely details of their day!  

    When that special moment I’ve been requested to paint occurs (first dance, ceremony exit, exchange of vows- you name it!) I paint fast and take additional reference photos, so I can fully capture the essence of the scene. This is when the painting truly comes to life! 

    The proof is in the paintings!

    About Laura

    Hello friends! I’m Laura, an artist located just outside of St. Louis, MO. If you are searching for a realistic painter who will capture all the lovely details of your celebration- look no further!

    A little about myself, I graduated with a degree in Studio Art in 2013. After a couple years of live painting on the side I left my high school teaching career to pursue art full-time. By this point, I've created hundreds of commissioned paintings and love the people I serve.

    Words From My Clients

    "Laura is the definition of a professional artist. She was punctual, so easy to work with and so easy to talk to and truly one of the kindest souls. During our preliminary meetings, it felt like I had known her forever. And trust me when I say that feeling comfortable with your vendors is SO important for having a stress free wedding day. But most importantly, she is DAMN GOOD at what she does. I had her paint our guests portraits at our wedding and it was, hands down, one of our guests’ favorite aspects of our wedding. I will treasure the portraits she did of me and my husband & our sons forever. I would hire her again in a heart beat and I would highly recommend her to ANYONE looking for a live artist. She is truly the best!"

    "Just wanted to take the time to thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for all you did to make her wedding day so memorable! Our guests were in awe while watching you paint, and you were so interactive and cordial to everyone who seemed to mingle around you! Bri and Will showed us the portrait they brought home from STL this weekend and it was absolutely incredible ! If a picture is worth a thousand words then your finished  portrait is truly a novel… and a love story at that! 
    We were blessed to have you join us here in Indy, as you added such a warm and exciting “extra” to a wonderful day. Thank you for literally “going the extra miles” to join us and share your passion and your artistry with all of us!"

    “We hired Laura the Wedding Painter for our daughter’s wedding reception. We thought it would be a “fun and quirky” addition to the night. What we got was so much more. Laura amazed and entertained our guests from (literally) start to finish with her talented artistry. Guests stood around her and watched as she captured the bride and groom in a painting that can only be described as stunningly gorgeous and unbelievably lifelike. She completely captured the love of the couple and the beauty of their special day. Thank you Laura for being the smash hit of the reception! 10/10 recommend!”

    Amy Grant, 2024

    "I don’t even have the words to describe how wonderful both our painting turned out and how great it was working with Laura. We had clear communication and discussions on what the vision was, and that made me feel extremely comfortable with the entire process. We wanted a ton of color in ours and Laura made the most beautiful painting for us. She’s fantastic to work with and I feel really blessed to have this beautiful keepsake now."

    Lauren Ditter, 2024

    "I could not recommend Laura enough. Out of every wedding painter we talked to, Laura was by far the best! Not only does she do incredible work, but she is extremely professional and a joy to work with! If you are going to get a live wedding painter, go with Laura! I'd leave 100 stars if I could!”

    Connor, 2024

    Laura was an absolute dream to have at our wedding this past March! She was so easy to work with, and incredibly talented! Our guests were blown away by her during the reception. I really appreciated that she offered different packages and helped us find the best fit for us. As soon as it was ready it went right up on the wall in our house for all to see! I would highly recommend her if you are looking for a live painter for an upcoming wedding or event! Thank you again, Laura”

    "To say we were impressed is an understatement. I'm so glad we booked Laura as this will be something we cherish for the rest of our lives. "

    “Laura was absolutely this and more!! She was a center focus of our night as our guests kept checking to see how the painting was coming along. It was absolutely incredible what she did and a work of art. Laura is so talented and took the time to talk with me before the wedding to make sure she captured specific details that I wanted. She did that and more! This canvas will forever be one of my favorite little details I decided to go through with. It will allow us to look back and remember a moment we will never forget.”
