Hey, I’m Rach!

Are you still looking for that extra special something for your wedding day?

I’m a live wedding illustrator based in Staffordshire, Cheshire & Derbyshire (and beyond), creating beautiful guest portraits in real time for your friends and family to watch come to life - and take home that very same evening. Packages start from £375.

I specialise in Live Digital Illustration for your guests (instant, stylish, and fun!) and heirloom portraits, and bespoke Hand-Painted Watercolor for your venue guestbooks.

I also offer bespoke couple illustrations, venue sketches and custom add-ons for an even more personal touch.

If you’d love a creative detail your guests will be talking about long after the confetti settles, get in touch to check availability - I’d love to hear your plans!

Reviews for Illustrated By Rach

Beautiful and elegant

From the beginning Rach was very approachable and professional in answering all my questions and replying quickly. She gave details about whats on offer and costs plus any additional add ons you could have such as extra studio time or a venue portrait.

The price was very reasonable especially when the end product was something to keep for a lifetime!!

My guests felt at ease approaching Rach to find out what she was doing but also in her care while she snapped their photo ready to create a memory of a lifetime.

The pictures were so detailed and timeless capturing so much of the day.

Rach added some extra beauty to our already incredible day and gave us the most amazing memories to continously look back on.

Highly recommend for anyone looking to add an extra special touch to their wedding day!!

Thank you so much
