Helping us to create lifetime memories of our special day...
"Both Gary & I would like to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the brilliant caricature print you created of both of us. We have spent many moments laughing with delight at some of the messages left from our guests on our caricature print. Gary loved the surprise and both Gary & our guests loved the postcard favors I had printed. Our guests all raved about how wonderful it was that you entertained then whilst awaiting our return from our photographs. I have already given out your details to a number of people who have shown interest.. Thanks again Neil for helping us to create lifetime memories from our special day. Kind Wishes Lorraine."

"Neil fitted in brilliantly with our family and guests. He was friendly and unobtrusive allowing people to come and go
either having caricatures drawn or watching. It was a great talking point and something to take away from a special occasion.
We have all enthused about him and thoroughly enjoyed having him with us. Thank you very much."

Talk of the evening...
"Thinking back to the wedding, my husband and I loved your work. You really did make our drinks reception fun! You were the talk of the evening and everyone was impressed with their pictures. We loved seeing them all during the evening and the following day. In the last year I have been asked by people who were not even at my wedding but had heard from guests how good you were for your details I loved dealing with you, you were incredibly helpful and professional. You were 100 percent worth every penny we spent and my favourite 'extra' of the afternoon."

We were delighted with Neil's brilliant caricatures. I am sure he went home with writer's cramp! Everyone wanted to be a subject!
Thank you for your help in setting this up for us, we will not hesitate to use his services again if required. Many thanks, Janis.

Neil was a complete success!
I booked him as a surprise at my sister's wedding and everyone ended up with a fabulous momento of her special day. The caricatures were excellent and they were all framed and displayed at the blessing party last Saturday! Neil made everyone feel relaxed and everyone had their pictures done and everyone loved them - even Bailey the dog was included!
Thank you very much Neil!"

Truly impressive and a key to a successful wedding...
"Neil's magic and charm delightfully filled that gap in our daughter's wedding proceedings when the photographer drew them away from their guests. He circulated most efficiently to ensure that everyone had a chance to be introduced to his skills. While the wedding party appreciated his work, much more importantly, our guests - elderly, young, children - smiled and gasped at his demonstrations; even close-to it was impossible to see how he produced the magic. Truly impressive and a key addition to a successful wedding."
