First Anniversary Gifts

the perfect gift

A pencil portrait makes a very special 1st anniversary gift.  I can draw it from any good clear photograph - either taken on the day of the wedding or, perhaps, on the honeymoon.

In fact, any favourite photograph of the couple can make a beautiful portrait.

Although, being paper, it makes an ideal first anniversary gift, it can also be an ideal thank-you gift for the bride or groom's parents.

Hello Basi,

We just returned from our anniversary trip where we opened the portrait together.
It was lovely and I certainly appreciate your efforts to capture the fine details of my dress and the flowers.

Thank you again. We will enjoy the portrait for years to come!

This was one of a pair of portraits commissioned by Lisha for her husband on their anniversary.

Suffice to say that her jewellery was challenging to draw! She was pleased with the end result though.

Dear Basi

I just wanted to say a BIG THANK YOU for the wonderful portraits! The image you sent through on e-mail does not justify the actual. The attention to detail is magnificent! My husband was speechless when I showed them to him! Thank you for making our first anniversary as memorable as our wedding day!

You have such talent, that words cannot express.

Kind regards

Lisha
