Want your guests talking about your event for weeks afterwards? I’m Adam, a professional live caricaturist, and I draw at weddings, parties, balls and corporate events across Southampton and Hampshire.

Every caricature is drawn by hand, on the spot, in about five minutes. Guests gather round, the laughter starts, and everyone walks away with their own A3 drawing to keep.

Wedding caricatures in Southampton
Whether you’re marrying in the city or at a country venue on the edge of Hampshire, a caricaturist keeps your guests entertained through the drinks reception and into the evening. It’s entertainment and a wedding favour in one, and people actually take it home. Most couples book me for around four hours, which covers 20–30 couples.

Corporate events, Christmas parties and balls
Caricatures are brilliant at breaking the ice. They work for office Christmas parties, staff away days, conferences, exhibition stands and client hospitality, and are popular at university and graduation balls too. Your guests mix while they queue, and I can add your company name, logo or event theme to every drawing so it becomes a branded keepsake.

Cruise and maritime events
Southampton is the home of British cruising, and caricatures make a memorable addition onboard or at port-side events. I’ve drawn onboard ferries for Wightlink, so I know how to work on the move. More about cruise caricatures.

Birthdays and family celebrations
18ths, 21sts, 40ths, 50ths, all the way to 100ths, plus anniversaries, retirements and family reunions. See my birthday parties page for ideas.
