Cutting Silhouettes for Weddings

I am available to cut silhouettes for Weddings, Parties and other Functions.
Contact me for details.



On June 11 I cut silhouettes at a beautiful garden wedding reception for a wonderful couple, Kendra and Matt. I cut two copies of each guest's silhouette, one when into the guest book to be signed by the sitter and the other was matted for the sitter to take home as a souvenir.



I even cut a special couple's silhouette while I was waiting to leave as a gift. The bride, groom and guests were all very pleased/impressed with the experience as well as their likenesses.

England

Went to visit my sister Becky in England the week before the Royal Wedding. Tried to keep a visual log while we were there drawing at least one--though usually two--pictures per day. The trip was amazing, I cannot wait until I am able to go back. I think I was meant to be English.












Cheers!
