LIVE FASHION ILLUSTRATION

Consider this your
invitation to stare

A little attention looks good on everyone.
Your guests, illustrated live at weddings and events across New Zealand.

Yes, I noticed the shoes.

Also the dress, the jacket, the earrings. The excellent decision to wear the ridiculous heels anyway. Consider them noticed.

Because, for all our pretending otherwise, being made a little bit of a fuss of is lovely. Especially when that fuss comes from an ACTUAL human. Your guest, illustrated by hand, right there at the event.

And that’s about when the portrait becomes evvverybody’s business. It gets held up across the table, passed to friends and greeted with a very satisfying “that is SO you”. People compare, strangers have a reason to lean in, and a few who were definitely just watching quietly reconsider their position.

Analogue social media with better manners.

Let’s make your event more
than just
memorable

Liiiiiiike "Oh my god I still have it" good

I'm in—Let's TALK

There’s more going on
than good outfits.

Turns out, a touch of illustrated chic goes rather a long way.

  • A keepsake worth KEEPING. A hand-drawn, personalised fashion illustration, destined for a frame, NOT the bin.

  • Instant, personal and oh-so-shareable. No two illustrations are alike, just like no two guests. Cue comparing, showing off and a room suddenly rather interested in who’s next.

  • An experience that lingers LONG after the last guest leaves. Something to watch, something to talk about, and something that gets to go home with them.
    (Bye-bye, awkward small talk.)

Here's to no more weather chat

I’m Kim, Illustrator, graphic designer and professional shopper.

Once upon a time, my wardrobe was home to 30+ very optimistic ‘going out’ outfits. Now I’m a mum, and considerably more familiar with the amount of food a toddler can get on a perfectly good outfit. On the upside, I’m now exceptionally good at stain removal.

So yes, I live a little vicariously through your wardrobes and social lives.

I see you. You look GREAT.

Is it time to party?

Proof it wasn’t just the champagne talking…

Maybe we’re just looking for something worth gathering around. Nobody is immune to a tiny moment of wonder. There are very few things left that make strangers gather in a circle without their phones. Nobody ever grows out of wanting to be th
Watching someone become a drawing is surprisingly addictive. One person stops and then another wanders over. Before long there’s a little crowd forming, guessing who’s next and waiting for the reveal. My favourite part isn’t even

Well, this could be fun.
