Allan created a caricature for us of our friend for her 50th birthday and we couldn’t be happier with the result! This likeness was amazing and he incorporated all the specifics requested, making it a very personal and entertaining present. The service was excellent too, would highly recommend.

We are so happy we decided to have Allan the caricature artist at our wedding. He was an absolute hit with our guests. We received so many comments about how impressed everyone was. Allan is such a lovely guy and made people feel comfortable straight away, and his work is fantastic. He managed to get through so many drawings throughout the evening, which was incredible. Both we and our guests now have a special keepsake from the day, which makes it even more meaningful. We couldn’t recommend Allan highly enough ,he added something truly special to our wedding.

We had the absolute pleasure of having Allan at our wedding 2 weeks ago. He was so accommodating and nothing was too difficult from the very start. Our guests raved and couldnt get enough of his caricatures, but they also had the best of craic with him too! We are still hearing stories. We can't recommed him enough, for his professionalism but also for being such a great laugh and a true gentleman. Thanks so much Allan for being one of the hi lights on our day.

This is the third caricature I have ordered from Allan for work colleagues, and they are always delighted with them! Allan really manages to capture their likeness as well as their life/hobbies/work etc.. The caricature arrived very quickly (within a week!), well packaged and in a lovely frame. It really is a lovely gift!

Allan was helpful at every stage from ordering to tracking . The image arrived on time .The image he supplied of my husband for a 60th birthday present was a real snapshot of him right now in a humorous form. My daughters thought someone who knew us created the caricature as he really captured him well . A great gift for birthday , retirement anniversary etc. when you really don't know what to get . Thanks allan .

Great craic. My cousin had this entertainment for her wedding reception 10 years ago & I loved it. So when our big day came up we knew we had to have it too. All our guests got involved and we went for the 3 hour package as it was a good deal amd meant more of our guest could be drawn. He even put our 2 children into the picture with myself & my husband which we really appreciated. Pictures are so realistic & ours is going straight into a frame after our honeymoon.

Absolutely Brilliant! The caricature artist was truly outstanding – he completely captured what I see in the subject and more, with an amazing attention to detail and creativity. It’s like he could see exactly what I was imagining but better. The final piece was not only accurate but full of character and charm. Brilliant work – couldn’t be happier. I highly recommend! It is well worth the money and a timeless piece of art.

Well what can I say about Allan..absolutely amazing! We hired him recently for our wedding day & ordered a signing board as you can see for our guests. We took 1 look at board & said nope no1’s writing on it! We’ve just bought our first home together & know exactly where to put it! From start to finish he was fantastic!He never stopped the entire time he was with us, the queue of people waiting never died down. He was fast, professional & great craic; he got a lot of laughs out of our guests. People are still sending me pictures of their drawings saying they loved them! Our only regret is not getting a chance to sit down & get ours done again! I would highly recommend hiring Allan! He made our special day so much brighter! Thanks again!

Allan did a great caricature of my brother for a retirement present. My brother loved it; it's a fun alternative to a gift. It was so easy to order by sending a photo and an explanation of what was added to the photo. I loved the option to receive it digitally. Would highly recommend Allan's work

We had the absolute pleasure of having Allan at our wedding, and we truly couldn’t have asked for a better addition to the day! Our guests loved the caricatures—there was a constant line of eager smiles, and people showing off their portraits. He captured everyone's personality with charm and creativity! It was the perfect icebreaker and left everyone with a unique keepsake to take home. Allan blended in seamlessly with the event and added a joyful energy to the atmosphere. Not only a great artist, but a funny and personable character who really made an effort with our guests. Highly recommend for any event—you won’t regret it!

An incredible experience. Allan provides an excellent service and through the simple questions asked he surpassed my expectations. The surprise on my friends face when presenting it to her was incredible . The likeness was uncanny and the details, finish and layout was just perfect. The whole experience from initial inquiry to submission , payment and delivery it was stress free and delivery a few days ahead of deadline Can’t wait to use Allan’s services again.

Allan created a caricature/portrait for my colleagues and I, of our boss, who is celebrating a round-y birthday. We all loved it when it arrived and thankfully HE loved it when he opened it this morning! The excitement was easy to use and delivery was spot on. Thanks a million Allan. Continued success to you.

We had Allan draw as part of our wedding reception and we were delighted we got him.It was something all the guests were talking about and it's such a unique service to have. Guests could watch others being drawn and the ones that were drawn had a great momento to take away with them.It still blows me away how quickly he can draw and how good the quality still was.If you're looking for something unique for your wedding day, we cannot recommend Allan enough!
