About Nish
Nish is a dad of two who discovered his passion for wedding portraiture when his own children got married. That personal experience gives him a deep understanding of just how much every detail of the day matters — and how fleeting those moments can feel.
Drawing on years of practice and a love of realistic portraiture, Nish blends a calm, unobtrusive presence with a refined artistic style. He works quietly and respectfully, allowing the day to unfold naturally while creating soulful, timeless artwork that captures the emotion and atmosphere of each couple's special day. Nish also loves to draw animals, so if you'd like your pets included, just ask.
Services
Live event wedding portrait — most popular
A bespoke, hand-drawn portrait in high-quality lightfast pencil and pastels on archival paper — a sentimental family heirloom that will stand the test of time. Nish works from photographs taken on the day, so there's no need to pose or wait. The artwork is created live during your celebration and completed at the studio if needed.
Available from A3 to any bespoke size mounted and ready to frame. Full colour or black & white — your choice.
Pre-wedding portrait
Have a finished portrait on display to welcome your guests as they arrive at the reception — a beautiful and personal touch before the day even begins.
Post-wedding portrait
A wonderful keepsake created after the event — perfect as a memento, a gift, or a thoughtful paper anniversary present.
Pet wedding portraits
Want your pets included in the big day? Nish can immortalise your pets alongside you in a portrait they'll love too (well, almost).
All studio portraits are sent via post. Sizes are flexible — price is dependent on size and complexity. Contact Nish for availability and timings.
What to expect
Couples describe working with Nish as relaxed, effortless, and reassuring. He works quietly in the background, fully focused on the artwork while the celebration unfolds around him. Every portrait is completely bespoke — Nish takes time to understand each couple and captures their unique connection, expressions, and energy, turning a fleeting moment into a lasting piece of art.
