Who doesn’t want an illustrator at their wedding?
That’s right an illustrator, just capturing your day as it all unfolds around you... how cool is that! Polly and Matt thought so too…
Step up the very talented Owen Mathers
Owen’s relaxed, rapid-fire approach to sketching is perfect for capturing the spirit and feel of a day in a truly unique way. His work is wide-ranging; from window art and murals to coffee cups and skateboard ramps, but his relaxed and free flowing approach really lends itself to a rustic and relaxed wedding. One booking later and he is on his way to Polly and Matt’s big day.
With sketchbook in hand Owen drifted around capturing elements of the wedding at the beautiful Butley Priory in Suffolk, stopping to chat to guests as he worked.
As the drink followed and the wedding became more of a festival-vibe, the sketchbook filled. What a fabulous keepsake for the happy couple!
As the day turned to night you might think that Owen was all sketched out, but you would be wrong... a line quickly took shape as Owen offered live portraits to the guests, sending many of them home clutching their very own slice of wedding magic in the form of a portrait.
