I hired Jay as a surprise for my partner. We are absolutely blown away by our caricature! Jay was punctual, responsive, and wanted to capture the best, most detailed picture. He was comfortable and fun to chat with. He even incorporated something special that we spoke about during our sitting with him to remember the moment forever. 10/10 would recommend and hire again for any future gig. THANK YOU!!!

We hired Jay for our son’s bday party (carnival/circus theme) instead of doing goodie/gift bags. Jay is super talented and everyone was so happy with their caricature portraits! A super unique gift for our guests!

Jay is a true professional, punctual and pleasant to work with. I used him for my 8 yr old twins’ party and his caricatures were a hit- with adults and kids alike! I will be using him again for sure and will recommend him to family and friends! Thank you, Jay, for giving my guests a unique and fun experience!

Can’t say enough good things about Jay! He was very punctual, professional & very patient. Although my place wasn’t the biggest he was very accommodating to what we had. Everyone was very impressed with their caricature drawings. Truly exceeded our expectations. I highly recommend him. Thank you again Jay 💙
