Wedding Reception•Reviewed on October 15, 2019•From Fleischmanns, NY

John was excellent at our wedding of 65 people. Everyone who wanted to get a caricature done did and they all love to them. The party moved a bit throughout the night from inside a house to outside in a meadow and John was able to move from place to place very quickly so things never really slowed down. He was friendly, personable, and professional and would highly recommend him to someone else.

John was AMAZING!! I highly recommend him for any event. I hired him for my wedding this past weekend and he was such a big hit! His caricatures were awesome!! He's very talented and professional. Such an awesome keepsake for everyone to take home and remember our day. Thanks for everything, John! I look forward to hiring you for another event I may have in the future :)

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on June 24, 2019•From Williamsport, PA

Wow! Truthfully, nothing but 5 stars!! We hired him for our wedding reception as a fun, interactive element for guests who are not as comfortable on the dance floor. We wanted an alternative to the more common place photo booth idea, John was exactly what we needed. His professionalism was truly top notch, my guests raved about how sweet he was. The artwork is mind blowing— wonderful representations of our guests (some artists focus on a characteristic of a person and often exaggerate for comedic value which can be a little offensive) but that was Not the case here. tastefully done, high quality work that really impresses. 10/10! Looking for a wow factor? Book John.

Holiday Party•Reviewed on December 12, 2018•From Scranton, PA

John was awesome, his drawings were great, he accommodated our group of about 185 people, and even stayed later to make sure that everyone who wanted a picture got one. I would highly recommend John if you are thinking about an artist of this kind for your event.

Celebration•Reviewed on May 22, 2018•From Breinigsville, PA

Would highly recommend John! He was very easy to work with and was able to bring two additional artist with him. All three artist were great and our guests really enjoyed having them. Additionally, the event ran a bit longer than anticipated and the artists stayed about 20-30m past the time, which was greatly appreciated. I will definitely keep them in mind for future events that we have.

Wedding Reception•Reviewed on May 17, 2018•From Wilkes Barre, PA

John was great. He met us a few times before the event to work on something special for us. The guests at our wedding reception loved him! Many have inquired about his services for their own use. His art is beyond caricature. He does not exaggerate your features to the extent that the photo is no longer flattering. His work really captures the resemblance and personality of who he is sketching. John is a very chill guy to work with. I wish I had another event to book him for.
