Dibujante de Bodas
Your wedding story, illustrated on paper as it unfolds
A bespoke fine-art book built around an original artistic vison of your wedding.
Specialising in live wedding illustration, artist Nathan Brenville details your wedding as it unfolds, creating an intimate and human interpretation of the entire day, from beginning to end; a visual story that is uniquely yours. The result is a bespoke, one-of-a-kind fine-art book, intended to be cared for and admired for many years.
“I will keep it forever and for the generations to come. Here’s hoping it lasts many hundreds of years!”
Drawn on location
A visual story that could belong to no other wedding
“Without a doubt the best part of the wedding. He does it with such love, patience and delicacy that it’s a joy just to watch him draw. Everyone at the wedding was asking about him.”
Handmade in Spain
The artisans behind the albums themselves are Ángel and Débora, who run Sphinge, a small traditional bookbinding studio in the Valencian province of Spain, with whom I’ve collaborated for many years.
Bound in hardback with high-quality fabric and housed in a matching slipcase. The original drawings are made on fine-grain 350 g Montval watercolour paper: chosen for its weight, texture and ability to carry ink and watercolour beautifully.
With each album made individually by hand, production is limited to around 10 per year.
Live Portraits
As an addition to the creation of your album, you can also give your guests a completely personal and interactive gift, as they enjoy posing for their own hand-drawn portrait, a unique keepsake they will take home in a decorative envelope, stamped with your names and wedding date.
