We booked Doris for my daughter’s 1st birthday and my family loved the face painting and caricature entertainment! If you’re looking for entertainment that’s worth it, she’s definitely it!

My wife and I hired Playful Portraits to work our yearly New Year’s party to have her do some caricatures of our guests in their carnival-themed costumes. Doris was incredible and the portraits she did were unbelievable. Everyone at the party loved the pictures and loved Doris. We would happily hire her again whenever we need her services.
