Shane Kinghorn29 Aug 2025

Booked for Wedding

Yanthia was punctual, friendly, self-sufficient, responsive and very swift, getting through dozens of wedding guests. Having the artist there as part of the wedding party proved to be a talking-point and meeting point: several guests said that sitting and waiting together meant they had a space away from the marquee, dance-floor and bar to have conversations with family, friends and guests they hadn't met yet. The process of anticipating the outcome is exciting, and a lovely way of sharing the fun. Everyone was delighted with their caricature, which now has become a memento of the occasion. If you're in two minds, I would say, don't hesitate, especially as, when you consider the cost of a wedding, the fee is a drop in the ocean, and very good value.

Booked for Celebration

We did not expect such a large gathering. Sam was cool calm and so undercontrol. What a fantastic artist. I caught glimpses of his drawings and they were spot on. Everyone walked away smiling. Sam was a big asset to our festival.

Booked for Wedding

Absolutely amazing....Sam was a great hit with our guests! Everyone loved their images and have raved about how great he was. He fitted in seamlessly and was so attentive and easy to talk to which made it very comfortable for everyone. Thank you so much to Sam for giving everyone a great memory and keepsake from our special day. I'd recommend him to anyone and really hope he continues to do well. We'll certainly be in touch again if we host another event.
