Working with Liz and Aggie was a dream! They were with us every step from dress fittings, to make-up applying, to the actual wedding. The captured all our memories in beautiful illustration. The final product book is the best conversation starter on our coffee table and everyone loves it! They were a joy to work with!
Liz and Aggie were amazing. They completely captured some of our favorite moments, were communicative and easy to work with, and you could not even tell they they were there!
The book fits perfectly in our living room next to our traditional album and is always one of the first ones people pick up and comment on!
Long story short, we had two weddings (traditional and Hindu ceremonies) and enlisted Elizabeth and Aggie to cover both with amazing results.
Elizabeth and Aggie are consummate professionals. We reached out in early 2021 to come up with a plan for them to illustrate our wedding in Dallas, Texas. They agreed to travel down to Texas and shadow us for multiple days/nights, creating some incredible pieces of our rehearsal dinner, ceremony, and reception. They are very reasonably priced and factored in their travel to our final total. They met with us multiple times to discuss our requests, art styles, avoiding potential hiccups, and overall theme for the pieces. This was great because it allowed us to lay out our expectations and have Liz and Aggie apply their own unique perspectives to it.
At the wedding, Liz and Aggie worked "behind the scenes" to construct multiple drafts and pieces reflecting shots and images we wanted to highlight. It was very personalized and we loved all of the final products. Aggie and Liz held multiple video calls with us afterwards to review the pieces and select which ones we wanted to keep. I cannot overstate how easy and seamless the process was and how high-quality the art turned out.
We enjoyed their work and efforts so much that we commissioned them to cover our follow-up ceremony in New York. They were one of our favorite wedding vendors and we had zero issues with any of the services provided. They are a joy to work and plan with and take every thought and idea you have into consideration. We would highly recommend them for any occasion.
We used them with our wedding and made our wedding feel one of a kind. Everyone asked if they were drawing us and how did we find them. The album we got is amazing and romantic. They are very detailed and artistic. They can draw the moments of the wedding that the photographer cannot capture. We really enjoyed working with them, they asked us exactly what we wanted and had no problem working alongside our photographer. I would recommend them for any bride or groom that is looking for that extra special memory to look back on again and again.
