Kristoff was the highlight of the evening. He was very professional and sociable. Kristoff walked around the room and made sure everyone had an awesome experiential wedding experience. All of the adults and kids enjoyed his show and I’d definitely hire him again.

We had a Corporate holiday party, and Kristoff was amazing! He had the entire audience engaged with his magic. We would definitely hire him again. He has a great personality and is very talented. He was also very punctual when it came to replying to all of my questions, and we worked out the details of the party quickly and smoothly.
Thank you, Kristoff, for making our party so special!

Kristoff was GREAT! We had a hybrid virtual-in person party for my fathers 80th birthday and he really delighted everyone, technologically and magically, Lots of “HOW did he DO that?!” :) People in the room and on the zoom all really enjoyed.
He is very nice, professional and easy to work with, and most of all was genuinely interested in learning about my dad in order to provide a personalized experience.
Would highly recommend!

I hosted a surprise birthday bash for my sisters 50th birthday and hired Kristoff for that special MAKE IT DIFFERENT element and WOW he was AMAZING! Took the simple elegant dinner to an entirely new level. I wouldn't even think twice to recommend him. HE IS A MUST! You and guests will talk about the experience for years to come!
Thank you so much Kristoff, I am still dumbfounded by your magic.

FAQs
What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Pricing is dependent on audience size and performance duration, assuming no travel is required. Parlor and stage performances involve a greater fee then close up magic.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
We first chat on the phone to get an understanding of the type of event, audience size, age ranges, room size, and desired length of performance. If possible, I prefer to visit the location once before the show to anticipate the layout, and what will make the show the most interactive with the best visibility. Pricing is based on duration and audience size.
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am currently a full magician member of the Academy of Magical Arts out of the Magic Castle in Hollywood CA. As to my original training, I worked my way through college and law school performing close up magic in restaurants and bars – decades ago. After my law practice was well established, I returned to doing magic -- my passion. I’ve left the legal practice to perform full time.
