Creating Wedding Day Keepsakes through Fine Art
I knew at age ten, I wanted to be an artist. However, I didn't realize that the dream would (one day) include spreading joy through painted love stories. There's nothing more fulfilling than creating a piece of art that truly moves people, something they'll treasure for a lifetime.
As a Bay Area live wedding painter and California landscape and portrait artist, I combine years of study, practice and passion to capture the heart of your celebration. It may be your first kiss, your first dance, or the glow of a special moment together. I'd love to be your artist for the day!
Meet Jaime
I am a San Francisco Bay Area live painter & fine artist.
I once lived in Paris while studying art. I spent my time soaking in some of the world's greatest masterpieces. That's when I decided I wanted to paint like the Impressionists - full of light, color, and emotion. But, the greatest honor is painting something for my clients - a work that reflects something they love, a connection with their partner, and the beauty of their wedding day in a timeless, painterly way.

Live Wedding / Event Painting
Live painting adds something truly special to your wedding day or event. As I paint throughout your celebration, I capture the light, atmosphere and energy of your moment by transforming a blank canvas into a meaningful work of art that you'll cherish for years to come.

Studio Commission
Studio commissions allow me to create custom paintings outside of live events. Whether it's a wedding moment, family portrait, or meaningful place, I paint from your favorite photos in my SF Bay Area studio.
