Oh my god. I’m just going to say, Kenny was the biggest hit at our wedding. Every person there was literally lined up for a caricature. His work was SO amazing and accurate. We got so many compliments on how cool having a caricature artist was! Not to mention how funny and personable he was with everyone. If I have another party, I 100% will hire Kenny again. Thank you SO much!!!!!

Kenny did such an awesome job. We chose him based on how creative his drawings were and were blown away! He was able to get through our whole party ! It was such a fun evening with lots of laughs! Great and clear communication leading up to our event. If you don't book Kenny as your artist, you will probably regret it.

Kenny arrived to my event and I immediately knew I made the right decision. I hosted a 40th birthday for my husband and wanted something as a keepsake for the event. When I happened upon Kenny, I thought it would be an awesome way for everyone to remember the night and be entertained. Kenny was incredibly punctual, professional, needed nothing but two chairs and got right to work. He handled all 16 guests with the utmost respect and kindness. He drew every person within 5-10 minutes and everyone enjoyed chatting with him. Our friends and family haven’t stopped talking about their photos. Thank you Kenny for making our event so much fun and providing a keepsake to look back on!
