Live Wedding Painting
by sasha mirzoyan
A Live Wedding Painting isn’t merely a family heirloom, cherished for generations.
Of course, the portrait painting is a rare gift that truly keeps on giving, but it's much more than that.
It's an experience.
The magic of witnessing a portrait painting coming to life gives us a sense of awe and wonder.
It invites us to pause, lifts us out of the ordinary, and connects us to something greater.
Your love story deserves nothing less.

I’m a live wedding painter and fine artist in Northwest Arkansas, painting portraits in expressive realism.
I’ve spent 25+ years learning to paint people, trained since age 12 and later teaching figure drawing at the university level.
What I love most is painting live and watching the joy it brings to a room.
I’m after more than a good likeness. I want to capture the essence of two people in love, in a portrait made to be handed down.
Based in Northwest Arkansas and always ready for a destination wedding.
Hi there, I'm Sasha.

In-Studio Commissions
Not every heirloom portrait is created on the wedding day.
Many of the most cherished portraits are painted after the celebration, carefully crafted in my studio using a favorite photograph from your wedding or a meaningful moment in your life.
In-studio commissions are a popular choice for couples who discover live wedding painting after the event, or who wish to transform a beloved image into a lasting work of art. These portraits are especially meaningful as anniversary gifts, milestone keepsakes, or heirlooms intended to be passed down through generations.
Each commission is created with the same expressive realism, fine-art sensibility, and devotion to craftsmanship that defines my live wedding paintings — thoughtfully composed in the studio.

Sasha was super easy to work with from our initial consultation through the delivery of the final painting. Our guests loved seeing the painting come to life throughout the night and now we have a sweet reminder of our first steps as husband and wife!
Taylor & Demetrius
Sasha was absolutely amazing!
He couldn’t have captured our special day more perfectly and I love that we will have it on our wall forever to remind us of how amazing the day was.
Sasha could not have been more professional to work with and spent time talking me through the process ahead of time to make sure I got exactly what I wanted and had appropriate expectations. Our guests loved it as much as we did too.
Hannah & Derek
Sasha is absolutely incredible! He captured this beautiful moment from my wedding and our jaws were on the floor with the final reveal. Sasha was amazing to work with and so kind! He was very transparent with the timeline and kept us updated the entire time. Absolutely worth the wait. 10/10 recommend.
Jordan & Obed
We absolutely loved having a live painter at our wedding. It created such a beautiful and meaningful memory of our special day. When Sasha brought the finished painting to our home, we were truly emotional seeing all the incredible details captured so perfectly. Sasha was super kind and wonderful to work with, and we are so grateful for him and his talent. Best wedding gift ever.
