EF WOODCOCK

Wedding Artographer


Step into my world of art and experience the magic my sketches can bring to your special day. As a BAFTA-credited animator with a background in fine art, I have developed a unique style of rapid sketching ('artography') that expresses the essence of my subjects in just a few moments with just a few lines. Whether I'm capturing you and your loved ones in your candid, curated, or choreographed moments, I guarantee you and your guests will love the way I transform your memories into beautiful works of art.

​My name is Francesca, and I look forward to drawing at your wedding.

FAQ's

What is ARTOGRAPHY

Artography is the meeting point of art, animation, and photography.I liken this technique to photography, but I am not a photographer, instead, I am the camera. I am the software that edits the image, and I am the chemical reaction that develops the film.I reproduce the world around me in real-time, as I experience it, live and in person.

How many drawings will I get?

Many. Everything is dependent on what’s going on around me, but I can make up to fifteen or twenty sketches an hour, though more commonly I’ll be making eight to twelve.

How long does each drawing take?

The longer a subject is willing to stand still, the more detail I’ll be able to capture. My normal sketches take between 90 to 120 seconds, but at my wildest and most reckless I've worked in as little as 30 seconds.

Can my guests keep pictures of themselves?

As standard I take the sketches back to the studio to digitisation, and you can distribute them to guests as you please. If you want to let guests take them away as party favours, I will scan or photograph them so you'll be able to see all the work produced in a digital portfolio, which you can share with your friends and family too..

Can you make me taller/slimmer/more muscular?

I suppose I could, but why would I want to change anything about you when you’re already so wonderful?

Is this the best job ever?

Yes.

Do you do other events too?

Absolutely. I will draw whenever and wherever people are willing to stand still for 90 to 120 seconds.

Is it just you?

If you've met me at a fayre or function, you've probably already met my beautiful assistant (and husband), Michael. We work events together, and he takes care of all of the organising and managing bits on the actual day, so that I'm free to forget about everything and get into an artistic flow. And yes, I do know how lucky I am to have him!
