Some nice reviews:

“Cannot recommend Karlee enough!”

We first met at my company's holiday party and Karlee charmed everybody - so much so that we immediately invited her to our wedding to draw our guests! On our wedding day, there was always a line at Karlee's table, and everyone was raving about their portraits, how sweet Karlee was, and how much fun they had chatting with her (she is hands down the best, most fun small-talker I know). My husband and I had a blast looking at all of the portraits post-wedding - she pulls out the best quotes from conversations to perfectly capture the folks she's drawing, making for a hilarious portrait that you're more likely to look back on than a photobooth strip. I hope to see her at many events in the future (and hope to have another excuse to book her myself!). - Shaelyn

“Bad Portraits, the most unique and amazing experience for yourselves and your guests.”

Karlee is out of a dream. I searched for 6 months for someone like her and miraculously found her just in time! Not only is Karlee's artistry and creativity apparent, but her personality and energy inspire joy and calm into the couple and all of the guests that sit down and have their portraits done as they're magically put at ease while chatting with Karlee. She also drew us ahead of time, which of course we incorporated into a few darling DIY projects. And the guestbook at the end, with not only the portraits and messages from your loved ones, but also depictions of the day. Karlee is a gem, and if you're looking for something unique and memorable to gift yourselves and your guests, she is the way to do that.” - Kimberly

“We hired Karlee to draw portraits at our wedding and it was the best decision ever! Karlee is such a warm, charismatic, and lovely person to talk to and work with. Her portraits were a huge hit with our guests and many people told me that it was the best wedding favor they'd ever received. In addition, her beautiful illustrated guestbook was full of sweet, personalized touches and will be an object we treasure forever. Highly recommend hiring Karlee for any of your special events.” - Ruthie

“Karlee did portraits at our wedding and incorporated it into our guest book and it’s one of the best mementos from our big day.”

If you’re looking for a fun and unique experience at your event- Portraits at Parties by Karlee is the way to GO!! Our guests loved it. We even printed out the individual photos to put on our Thank You cards for that extra personal touch.
Karlee is professional, personable, energetic and sincere. Photo booths are soooo over done, if you want something truly special at your event, hire Karlee!!! - Kara
