Whether it’s along the shores of Lake Como, the Opera House in Paris, or the heart of Spain, you deserve to have that captured in the highest form of art. What better setting is there? To have your most cherished moments created as a work of art to be held dear for years to come is the ultimate treasure.
Katie Geis creates elegant, impressionistic paintings live at weddings, private celebrations, and luxury events around the world. From Lake Como villas to historic European estates, each painting captures the atmosphere, architecture, and emotion of a moment as it unfolds.
Katie did a live painting at our wedding and it was such a wonderful experience. She did an amazing job capturing the day - including our close family and nearby landmarks that were special to us. In addition to being super talented, she's a great person to be around and to work with - she brings a great calm, positive, and kind energy.

Live Painting for Weddings, Private Events & Corporate Gatherings
Katie’s live paintings elevate weddings, luxury brand events, private celebrations, and destination experiences. Guests are captivated as the artwork unfolds throughout the evening, leaving the host with a museum-quality painting that preserves the atmosphere of the event.
II.
Exclusively Yours
The cornerstone of Katie’s work is connecting with her clients. She does this best by limiting the amount of couples she paints for every year. She takes pride in creating lasting friendships along with a work of art. When she’s a part of your day, you can rely on her full attention.
III.
Heirloom Treasures
We visit art museums because seeing masterpieces up close moves us profoundly. Your painting deserves that same adoration. All of Katie’s collections include the highest quality paints to be preserved as an heirloom for generations to come. You’ll also receive the rights to all the photographed painting, so you can print and share as you wish.
IV.
A Classical Art Approach
Influenced by the classical techniques of Monet, Degas, and other great masters of art, Katie approaches her paintings with careful consideration for composition, color, visual harmony, and the fleeting qualities of light. She uses these timeless traditions of art to create paintings that endure, aging finely and growing ever more valuable with time. Her goal is not to paint a picture replica of your day, but rather, how your day felt.
I.
Tailored & Immersive
Because every event, destination, and guest list is different, there is no one size fits all when it comes to creating exceptional wedding experiences. That’s why your painting will be thoughtfully tailored to suit your needs and dreams. Katie draws on her decade of creating for events, and network of industry friends to provide creative direction for an incomparable experience.
Not a detail missed.
“We hired Katie to live paint at our wedding and WOW did she knock it out of the park. We chose Katie because we loved her style and her florals, plus she’s just a delight. We love, love, love our painting. My husband teared up when he saw it in our room at the end of the night.
We will cherish this piece of art forever.”
