What does a year in the life of a Live Wedding Painter look like? In 2026, my easel travelled to 22 weddings across Switzerland, Italy and France. I created 13 live oil paintings and hundreds of guest illustrations in breathtaking locations – from Swiss mountains and castles to the Amalfi Coast. Here’s a look behind the scenes of an unforgettable wedding season filled with art, travel, beautiful encounters and countless love stories.

Kuenzli Wedding Art is growing! Meet Natalia, our new Live Event Illustrator joining Stephanie at weddings, corporate events and special celebrations across Switzerland. With two artists working side by side, we can create more personalised guest portraits while keeping every illustration unique and personal. After a wonderful first corporate event together with J.P. Morgan, we’re excited for the upcoming Christmas event season.

J.P. Morgan Asset Management invited us to bring Live Illustration to an elegant corporate evening at The Dolder Grand in Zurich. Guests and speakers received personalised black-and-white portraits with a subtle touch of colour. As corporate enquiries continue to grow, we’re excited to offer Live Guest Illustration for company events, client dinners, brand activations and Christmas parties across Switzerland and internationally.

From Basel to Tuscany: behind the scenes of preparing to paint an American couple’s wedding live inside a medieval monastery in the Italian countryside. Next week, my studio will look a little different. Instead of preparing for a wedding somewhere in Switzerland, I will be packing my brushes, oil paints, camera and easel and travelling south to Tuscany, Italy, where I have the privilege of creating a live wedding painting for an American couple celebrating their destination

At Anna and Michael's elegant wedding at The Dolder Grand Zurich, I created live watercolor guest illustrations throughout the celebration. To ensure every guest received a portrait, I photographed additional guests and completed the remaining illustrations in my studio after the wedding. I also painted a romantic watercolor artwork of the couple sharing their first kiss after the ceremony, as well as a special portrait of their beloved Australian Shepherd, Enzo.

Last Saturday I had the pleasure of working as a Live Wedding Illustrator at the beautiful Dolder Grand Hotel in Zurich for Anna & Michael’s wedding, a couple from the United States who traveled all the way to Switzerland together with their guests to celebrate their love in one of the most iconic luxury hotels overlooking Zurich. And honestly? The day began with a tiny bit of weather drama. The kind every wedding artist secretly watches through the window while checking the

When I first embarked on the journey of capturing weddings through live painting, I knew it was more than just creating an image. It was about preserving moments, emotions, and stories in a way that photography alone could not. Over time, the heartfelt feedback from couples and families has shaped my understanding of what truly matters in wedding art. Today, I want to share with you what clients are saying about Kuenzli Wedding Art and why this experience is so much more than

There is a quiet moment at every wedding that I always wait for. A glance, a touch, a breath between two people who are about to begin a new chapter together. It is in these fleeting seconds that I feel most connected to my work and to why I became an artist in the first place. But this story didn’t begin at a wedding. It began much earlier.... Where It All Started I started painting when I was very young. Before I even understood what “art” meant, I was already drawn to colo

Finding the perfect wedding gift can feel… predictable. Another toaster? A set of plates? A gift card? Practical, yes, but unforgettable? Not quite. Now imagine this: In the middle of the wedding celebration, as the music plays and glasses clink, an artist quietly captures the magic of the day. Brushstroke by brushstroke, a moment becomes a memory, right there, in real time. This is where Live Wedding Painting and Live Illustration by Kuenzli Wedding Art becomes more than a g

"Some moments don’t just pass, they deserve to live forever." There are weddings, and then there are moments within weddings that stay with you long after the day is over. Moments that carry so much emotion, joy, and energy, that they almost ask to be preserved in a different way. This painting was exactly that. Recently, I had the honour of creating the largest wedding artwork I have painted to date , a 120 x 100 cm oil painting on canvas , framed in a refined shadow gap fra

Some love stories don’t follow the traditional path and that is exactly what makes them unforgettable. When Anusya and Luigi, a couple based in Geneva, decided to celebrate their wedding, they chose not just a location, but an experience. Ibiza became the setting for an entire wedding weekend, a gathering of family, color, joy, and deeply personal moments. I had the pleasure of accompanying them as their wedding photographer , capturing every detail of this vibrant celebrati

Some weddings stay with you.Not just because of their beauty, but because they dare to be different. On December 31st, 2025, I had the pleasure of being part of a truly unforgettable celebration at the iconic Dolder Grand Hotel in Zurich , a winter wedding that redefined elegance with a bold and playful twist: a Pink Wedding inspired by Barbie . From the very first moment, it was clear that this was not going to be a traditional wedding. The entire space was transformed into
