I wanted to have a live portrait component for our wedding and that's how I stumbled on Elena!
We had a larger wedding (240 guests) so having a live portrait artist was unrealistic, but I saw some ideas online about a custom portrait seating chart (she even did one for her own wedding) so we discussed working on a custom project together, and she was all for it! She created portraits for all 240 of my guests!!
Elena was such a great person to work with, I would highly recommend her as a wedding vendor or for any other portrait ideas you may have! When you're dealing with a big, long-term project like a 240 person wedding, you need your vendors to be communicative and organized. Elena was great at communicating her timelines to me, flexible, clarified requirements with me, had reasonable pricing, and she is so talented as well. I didn't make her job that easy because some of the photos I had of our guests were in large groups with bad lighting. I loved working with her throughout our 3 month project and it even felt like I was working with a friend along the way. Our guests raved about their portraits too.
We're now working on a second project together, and I couldn't be more thrilled!
Reach out to Elena for your wedding / portrait needs before she gets booked out, seriously!! read more
