Live Wedding Painting
with Kristin Yaremko
So glad to see you here!
My name is Kristin Yaremko and I'm a Las Vegas based artist who has been painting for about five years, drawing for about 15 years. Realism is what I specialize in, using acrylic paints. I started out doing art in these dry mediums, but as much as I enjoy them, the process from start to finish is very slow. The fast dry time of acrylic paints allows me to work in layers with speed and ease. Recently, I've been putting an abstract, painterly spin on my work while still keeping it grounded in realism.
Seeing other people be happy and coming together in one place to celebrate that happiness is something I have always loved about weddings. I would love to help create an amazing experience on your day while creating a unique one-of-a-kind painting you can take home and cherish for the rest of your life.

01
Consultation
Let me know which particular moment you want to capture in your painting, whether it is a portion of the ceremony, first kiss, first dance, or anything else you had in mind. Do you want the landscape/scenery to be the focal point, or you want to be the focal point? Do you want to include other people or pets that couldn't be present at the wedding? We will go through all of these details and anything more you wish to see in your masterpiece!
02
Live Painting
I will show up to the venue about 3 to 4 hours early, if allowed, so I can get started with as much of the background ahead of time. At some point before or during the event, I will want take photos of the bride and groom in desired poses so I can incorporate them into the painting, based on what we discussed during the consultation.
03
In-Studio Details
After the festivities, I will take your painting back to my studio to finish the final details before sending if off to your new home to enjoy! It will take between 2-4 weeks to finish the final details and ship over. Your masterpiece will then be yours to cherish for years to come!
New Guest Illustration Services!
Ten-minute sketches
I am currently testing out guest portrait illustrations with colored pencil and markers (no paints) and want you to have the opportunity to experience this at your event. Your guests will see the linework done on the big day (about 10 minutes per guest/couple) while I take the portraits home and work on the color portion over the next couple of weeks. Your guests receive the finished mini masterpiece of their portraits in the mail to enjoy. They make great additions to thank you cards!
Two- Hour Portraits
If you want a more specialized, personal experience for your guests, why not have an entire gallery showcasing everyone who came to celebrate you? They can take them home that same day, while I paint the bride and groom at the event.
REQUIREMENTS:
- Currently offering for micro weddings only - 30 people or less
-Guests must take their own photos (decent quality with good lighting) and send to my email: painting@eventswithkristin.com
-Photos must be sent at least no later than 30 days prior to the wedding/event. Any photos I receive less than 30 days prior will likely just need to be finished after the event and shipped to the guest's address.
