Would definitely book again!

Our guests LOVED having Zach at our event. Communication before the event was easy and having a caricaturist at our Catholic Charities after party was a fun new addition. Zach was able to accommodate all of our guests in a seamless manner and even added our event logo to the bottom of the caricature paper! Highly recommend!

Incredible Caricature Artist

We recently used Zach for a corporate event and he was a huge hit! Zach is extremely easy to work with, punctual and able to draw caricatures at incredible speed. I would highly recommend him!

Amazingly talented and incredibly professional

There aren't enough words to describe how talented Zach is and how grateful I am to have found him!! I hired Zach for digital caricatures during my corporate evening event and his chair was full all night. Some of the comments I heard from my attendees (who always go to these events and are at times critical) included: "I'm going to use my drawing as my LinkedIn profile picture!", "This was the highlight of the night!", and "His caricature of me was the best activity I've participated in at any event I can remember."

A true professional with a huge amount of talent, I'm considering trying to fly Zach out for a future event if the timing works out, that's how great he was. He captures your best features with a whimsy that makes you smile.

THE BEST!

Zach's wonderful to work with--pleasant, responsive, flexible--he incorporated our sponsor logos onto the drawing paper. His talent is exceptional, he's a delight to watch as he puts pen to paper capturing the very essence of his subject. He brought an extra special touch to our event by providing a holiday party keepsake! Hire him--you will be thankful you did!
