About this supplier
On Hitched.co.uk since 2025
Last update: October 2026
Among the services Anna Obert offers as a full-time artist is live sketching, one of her favourites.
Having practised drawing from life in under 5 minutes on the London Underground, Anna now produces drawings in a maximum of 15 minutes, using pencil, ink and watercolours.
Anna stands out from what her competitors offer because she works with who recognise the value of a live artist, rather than just their product. The presence of a live performer adds value to an event, particularly in light of the current trend which celebrates human creativity, craftsmanship and collaborations with genuine artists as a way of distinguishing them from content generated by artificial intelligence.
For this reason, thanks to her portable desk, Anna entertains by walking amongst the event’s guests, without disturbing or making anyone feel uncomfortable. She captures scenes and moments, not just people posing.
Whatever catches her eye is captured.
The paintings can focus on guests, but also on capturing larger scenes, such as the reception drink, the dancefloor or the ceremony. As Anna is able to tailor the service to suit any requirements, we recommend contacting her to request further information, specifying your ideas.
Kindly include in your request the venue and the timings of the wedding to receive more info.

A truly unique and unforgettable addition to our wedding
The results were incredible. So many of our guests loved their portraits so much they framed them the moment they got home, they're such a lovely, personal keepsake of the day, far more special than a typical wedding favour.
Anna's art style is completely unique, playful, and full of character. When we first saw her work we fell in love with it instantly, but assumed someone with that level of talent would already be booked. We searched everywhere and genuinely couldn't find anyone else who compared, so we were thrilled she was free for our date.
On top of the incredible artwork, Anna herself was an absolute pleasure to work with. She was friendly, warm, and fun to talk to.
We can't recommend Anna highly enough! She added something truly special and memorable to our day, and we'd book her again in a heartbeat.
Make it special with Anna
Every single guest was over the moon to receive their own custom artwork, it added such a special and personal touch to the event. Anna was professional, warm, and effortlessly talented, engaging with everyone while producing stunning drawings with impressive speed and detail.
If you’re looking to elevate your event with something meaningful, memorable, and completely unique, Anna’s live drawing service is an exceptional choice.
Wonderful live painting session
The icing on the cake
I loved every one of her portraits even before she told me how much her work would cost. Every penny spent on her was worth it.
We hit it off right away. She knows how to put you at ease, she's not intrusive, and she's super professional. With her, you can't go wrong.
If you want the WOW effect at your wedding, contact her. You won't regret it.
