The magic of a live sketch
A portrait may be small enough to take home in your pocket, but it’s a big gesture. It means a lot when someone takes the time to create something just for you. And seeing the magic happen right in front of you makes the feelings go through the roof.

So here's the plan
Preparation
A call about your creative brief or challenge. It can be a product launch, a VIP dinner, or creating social media mentions for your brand. We discuss the goals, the number of guests, the schedule, and any custom requests, so I can prepare everything for the event.
Event
Live sketching sessions usually last from 3 hours to a full day. I take a quick photo of each guest, so they are free to enjoy the event while I draw. In 5 minutes, I create an artistic fashion sketch for them to take home.
Results
A memorable event and a personal illustration your guests take home, and share on social media. Optionally, I create a custom event illustration or digitize selected sketches after the event.
FAQ
What's the ideal guest number or event size?
It works for events of any size. It can be an intimate VIP evening where every guest receives a sketch, or a larger event where I draw as many guests as possible within a set time window. Depending on your creative needs and number of guests, the amount of illustrations can vary from 8-12 per hour (3-5 mins per illustration). I recommend bookings of at least 3 hours.
What kind of illustrations will be created?
I create expressive fashion sketches that focus on silhouette and personality. I usually draw in ink and colored pencil on A6 or A5 fine art paper. The paper can be customized for your event. This could include your logo, event details, a custom illustration, fabric samples, lipstick swatches, pressed flowers ... Let's talk about the different ways you can make your brand stand out.
What do you need on the day?
A good sized table, a chair and decent lighting. I bring everything else. On the day of your event, I will arrive 30-45 mins earlier to set up before the event begins.
How are events priced?
Pricing is based on an hourly rate + travel expenses if applicable. Travel within Berlin and the surrounding is free. Get in touch with your event details, and I’ll put together an offer tailored to your needs.
How do I book?
Send me your event details to check availability and receive a tailored quote. If you’d like to go ahead, I’ll hold your date for 14 days while we finalize the details. Your booking is confirmed once I’ve received the signed contract and a 30% deposit.
What's it like to work with you?
I'm easy to work with and I know how to read a room. I speak German, English, Spanish, and Russian, and adapt easily to different guests and event settings. My goal is to make the process feel effortless for everyone.
