Nef Melendez

When I first had the idea to book a caricature artist for my wedding I combed through everyone available in teh area and Nef's work was exactly what I was looking for - he was almost more of a portrait artist because his cartoons are so lifelike and his work was phenomenal. I booked him immediately and hoped my guests would enjoy the unique wedding favor.

I figured a few people would think it was cool but WOW - Nef was a HIT that night! He had a line the entire time and people were coming up to us RAVING about how cool the portraits were and asking for his information. We ended up needing to pay him a bit more to stay extra hours (he had already stayed over time to finish up some portraits, so we decided to) because he was so popular!

He even managed the line well enough that it wasn't crowding the area. We had some communication issues in the beginning because his email stopped working, but Nef really came through in the end and helped make our wedding unique and fun. Thank you Nef, I can't recommend you enough!

We had a terrific event in part thanks to Nefs participation. He was very patient with us and very cheerful. Everyone enjoyed their drawings.

Nef's drawings made the End of Year special ! He drew 19 professional, and personal, caricatures of each kid. We will use Nef again for sure ! He arrived early and worked personally with each kid in the most friendly and respectful way possible.

Nef was amazing to work with. Very professional and knew how to handle large crowds. Would definitely recommend his services.

He was great as always! The pictures were beautiful and im just so happy i was able to get him again this year!

Everyone loves him, very nice and his work is very clean.

We booked Nef for my daughters 1st Birthday in July. He was definitely one of the favorites at the event. With 150 guests, we had a line up! Nef was so calm and accommodating, although he had to stay longer than expected. We appreciated his kindness very much. In fact, we loved him so much that we booked him again for a future event! Since
our party, we have recommended Nef to several of our friends and he never disappoints. I will certainly be using his services again! Nef is the best!

We had Nez for my son's 1st birthday party! He was amazing to work with. Not only is he so talented but a true professional with my guests. He went out of his way to accommodate everyone. Thank you!

Nef did a great job and has the right attitude for working with the public, patient and friendly. He is also a great artist.

He came to my daughter's 1st birthday party in April and he was AMAZING! his drawing was so beautiful and life-like. Everybody who got drawn by him loved his work and im so glad he came to my daughter's party and hope to do buisness with him in the future!! Thank you for everything

Nef was very professional through the entire process. He worked with me about the price and date of the party! My guest Loved him!!!!! I will most definitely contact him for future events! He put that extra touch on my daughters party!

Nef and his artistic gifts was a wonderful addition to my birthday party. He was very punctual and extremely personable. All my friends loved interacting with him as he worked. If anyone is ever in need of a caricature specialist, I would 100% without a doubt recommend Nef Melendez!!! I couldn't have asked for better artist and person for my event. And I look forward to working with him again for future events. Thanks again, Nef...You were amazing!!!

Nef was so great and professional! On time and my guest loved him! Even the kids! Most definitely will book him for another event! He added that special touch to my daughters party.

Nef was everything as promised. He showed up, did a great job and everyone loved him.

Nef showed up on time and did a Fantastic Job. I could not be happier with the job he did. We quite often host events for the insurance agents who work for Howe Insurance Services and we usually have an "Orlando Event" once per year - and I expect Nef to become one of our "Annual Attractions". Thanks!!
