It’s not too early to talk about Christmas gifts …
This Engagement Painting from Photos was a perfect Christmas gift for Colleen’s husband! Colleen reached out to us with the idea of taking one of their favorite engagement photos and having it turned into a painting! After living in Croatia, and getting engaged there, her beautiful iphone photo was just meant to become a painting!
Creating an Engagement Painting from Photos: How it works
Ben absolutely loves created wedding and engagement paintings from photos back in the studio! With each of these paintings, he’s able to thoughtfully plan with each client and couple. Talking through composition, colors, even how detailed they would like the painting to be. Working at a slower pace with consistent studio lighting, Ben is always so proud to see these paintings come together!
Once the painting is complete, we sent Colleen a preview by email. It’s always so important to Ben for our couples to see the finished painting before delivery. Colleen absolutely loved the finished painting!
Cheers to this incredible couple! Ben absolutely loves creating this painting from their photo!!
