Wedding offerings

There’s a moment during your wedding—maybe it’s your first kiss, a dip on the dance floor, or the way your veil catches the light—that deserves to live on long after the last song plays. That’s where I come in.

I’m Cheyenne, a live wedding painter creating heirloom-quality artwork that tells the story of your day through soft, romantic brushwork and timeless detail. My paintings focus on the connection between you and your partner—the emotion, the light, the way your dress flowed or your hands held each other tight. I capture not just what your day looked like, but how it felt.

What Makes My Style Unique:

• Romantic, painterly realism: Likeness without stiffness—think softness, light, and elegance.

• Sentimental focus: I emphasize emotion and connection above all else.

• Live experience + studio refinement: I paint onsite during your celebration, then carefully refine your piece afterward so it becomes a treasured heirloom.

The Result? A one-of-a-kind painting you’ll hang in your home and pass down for generations—one that brings back the butterflies every time you see it. ⸻ Let’s create something unforgettable together.

Below you'll find my most popular offerings; while canvas paintings were my first love, I also offer live portraits so that your guests can also have a timeless keepsake from your wedding! Feel free to look over how things work below and don't hesitate to reach out if you have questions!

Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at thesmallmomentstoo@gmail.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

How do I secure my date?

Please email me directly for checking availability on live wedding offerings! If I am available on your wedding date I require a $50 non-refundable deposit to secure your date and the remaining cost is due before 2 weeks out from the wedding.

How do I decide on what orientation to have my painting to be?

This is such a good question to ponder if you are choosing a canvas painting. When thinking about the composition (or the overall look) of your painting, I want you to think about the feelings you want to feel when you look at it. What story do you want to tell? Below is a breakdown of what each has to offer.

Close-Up (Focused on the Couple)

Feel: Intimate, emotional, personal

Emotionally charged: You can see the couple’s expressions—smiles, teary eyes, a subtle touch—which pulls viewers into their personal connection.
Romantic detail: Elements like the lace on a dress, the clasping of hands, or a tender gaze are more prominent, emphasizing love and vulnerability.
Timelessness: Feels like a captured moment in time, like a visual memory or still from a romantic film.
Viewer connection: Evokes empathy and closeness—viewers feel like they’re standing right there with them.

Pulled-Back (Including More Scenery)

Feel: Cinematic, grand, narrative-driven

Storytelling: Shows more of the context—venue, weather, lighting, guests, nature—which gives a fuller sense of the day.
Atmospheric: The mood is shaped by the environment, whether it’s a golden sunset, a candlelit hall, or a lush garden.
Balance of scale: The couple becomes part of a bigger scene, which can highlight themes like community, journey, or the start of something larger than themselves.
Visual richness: There’s more to take in—architecture, light play, movement—which makes the painting feel layered and dynamic.

How will you communicate with me about my wedding?

After securing your date and deposit we will schedule a time for a call to discuss all the details of your wedding day painting! This is my time to learn more about you and your wedding as well as your time to ask me questions!

Do you travel for wedding painitngs?

In short, yes! I am much more selective on my long distance weddings since I have a family, but I do travel for the right fit - let's chat! I will drive up to an hour away from St. Louis without any additional charge. If your venue is further than 60 miles I charge 66 cents/mile and anything over 2 hours outside of STL I require the coverage of the cost of lodging + 1 meal.
