We couldn't be happier. We knew the artists were under time constraints and had to deal with last minute venue changes, but they seamlessly managed everything and gave us a wedding experience we'll never forget.

Thank you so much for the wonderful review :) We're glad everything went well ❤ Congratulations Joe and Andrea :) Thank you for having us!
Haven made setting a 1st wedding anniversary surprise for me with only a few days notice very easy with prompt communication. The surprise went great and he played along well the entire time without giving it away to my wife that it was a surprise. We're very happy with the caricature he sketched for us and have already framed it!

Thank you Marshay! Thank you for the hospitality and great food :-) all of the love was felt :)
Haven the Artist was professional and friendly all around. His art was great and everyone was pleased with his work, left smiling and wanting to frame their art. Amazing addition to the grad party. He even stayed an extra 30 minutes at the request of a few guests.

We just celebrated our daughter’s bat mitzvah and extremely glad we chose Haven the Artist. Photo booth and caricaturists were a hit. A few of our friends asked us for reference. Great job!!! Thank you.

Thank you very much, Stefani! Your party was a lot of fun~ Thank you for the amazing hospitality and for the great tip :)
Haven was amazing..we had a party of 70+ people. He was kind and friendly, and so talented. All of the caricatures were fantastic and everybody loved the experience.
No wonder Haven gets so many 5-star reviews. My wife and I have just completed our 25th wedding anniversary celebration that featured Haven as part of the festivities aboard a day-long yacht outing for 30 family members and friends. He was an absolute hit. Guests eagerly lined up to pose for a caricature. Every caricature was spot on and attendees sang his praise. Our guests ranged from 17 years of age to mid 80s and all of them expressed delight with the way Haven captured their personas. From a business perspective, Haven and his partner Jam were a delight to work with. Professional, responsive, and responsible. They made planning easy and both were an essential part of a flawless day. Is he worth it...absolutely. Will he help make your guests happy...absolutely. Will you want to book him again...absolutely!

We hired Haven to do caricatures at our wedding. We decided to do something different other then the traditional photo booth. It was a gigantic hit. There was a line-up the entire night. We had to give numbers so people wouldn't have to waste the reception waiting in line (it was that long). Haven was also very quick. Honestly, everyone wanted one. He also stayed till the line-up was done, which was very appreciated. Well worth the hire, very awesome part of our wedding. Everybody LOVED their caricature!
Kathy & Kris
I have hired Haven many times and I highly recommend him. He was interactive with the guests, and best of all he is highly talented. Our clients are always happy with his services! Cant wait till the next event! Thank you Haven..

Setup Requirements
Chairs, and an outlet for my lamp.
I have a portable box easel, which is ideal for table tops. All of my markers and pastels are in a small portable pouch which sit on the same table. I also bring a lamp in case the lighting is not sufficient. So access to an outlet is appreciated :-)
