Jess Hughes30 Jun 2025

We hired Neil for our work summer party and he was brilliant. He is a lovely guy and his art is amazing. Everyone loves their pictures and it was a great talking point! 100% would recommend! Thanks Neil!

Harrison Flanagan-goddard7 Sep 2024

Francesco was brilliant, he was so friendly and the guests all had a great time getting their caricatures drawn. Would highly recommend Francesco, you won’t regret it!

Andrea Morrissey2 Nov 2023

Andy was a great addition to our wedding. Every guest was desperate to have their caricature done and it’s fair to say none of them were disappointed. We were really impressed with the whole package and it was so nice to see how many people got their picture done with a constant flow keeping Andy very busy all night. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for this type of entertainment for your special day.

Lady Dorothy Sterling22 Oct 2023

Paul was excellent. Worked quietly in the background. In fact, there were times when I forgot he was there!. He produced wonderful images which everyone loved. My four pictures are now a great keepsake in my hallway for all to see ....... I highly recommend Paul and would certainly hire again.

Jayd Linney27 Sep 2022

Kayleigh10 Mar 2020

Cirencester 28/02/20 Ed & Kay Chris was an excellent addition to our wedding. The guests found it absolutely hilarious and it was such fun to be able to send our guests home with their pictures which have been circulating in a ‘guess who’ style around our friends and family WhatsApp groups ever since! Thank you Chris, you were efficient, on time and set your kit up discreetly and made sure to capture everyone. I would absolutely recommend Chris to anyone considering a caricaturist- you won’t be disappointed!
