Jayne Fennec23 Mar 2026

Booked for Corporate Function

Dave was a big hit with our guests. Pity we'd not booked him for longer as there were quite a few disappointed people who missed the chance to get their best features captured! Would definitely recommend Dave.

Sarah Richardson29 Oct 2024

Booked for Wedding

Dave came to the wedding on time, professional and polite. I only hired him for 2 hours expecting it to be a bit of gimic not every guest would be interested in. How wrong was I? Every guest want there turn however we ran out of time. Dave very kindly offered to stay until he had finished the list however we also ran out of time in the day. Dave stayed whilst we had the meal and then continued to work which I did not expect. He went above and beyond and is fantastic at his skill! I would not hesitate to hire him again.

Sharon Bartlett1 Dec 2018

Booked for Wedding

"Hi Sadly Chris was a bit late and we started to think that he wasn't coming. Thankfully he did arrive and quickly set himself up. His drawings were wonderful and he took the time to put in great detail. His partner made sure the finer details of sealing with fine spray and placing into clear plastic bags was done. Everyone loved their drawings and he added a special touch to our day. Thank you Chris."
