Engagement Present For Son
“My son recently got engaged in Australia while on holidays. Could the picture have him on one knee (similar to a picture you have already) and maybe relate to Australia in some way.
Looking forward to hearing you thoughts on this”
For an Engagment Party
Framed Cartoon of the proposal
For this commission I looked up photos online of the restaurant where he proposed, and used them as a reference to draw the scene. And the background is made up of places the couple had visited, such as Venice and the Leaning Tower of Pisa.
Engagement Present idea
When someone orders an Engagement Cartoon I often suggest getting the background done as a sort of “collage”. With a few locations that are meaningful to the couple.
So here we have Powerscourt Waterfall & Edinburgh Castle. Also included are a reference to him being a baker and her a paramedic.
[Glossy Photographic paper. 12 x 16 inches approx]

Unusual Engagement Present Idea
Email From Customer:
“Many thanks for your reply re my friend's engagement present. I am attaching some pictures of them both and also of the background where the engagement took place.
I am wondering if it is possible to include a sign post pointing to Mallow, Ballinascarthy, Myrtle Beach and Galway in it? (Significant places that they met and lived etc)
They are both quite sporty and active aswell? Marie in a red top as it is her team colour.
And would you be able to include the date that Marie and Conor got engaged somewhere as well please (maybe at the bottom of the pic?) 21/07/2018”

Engagement Present Idea
Email From Customer:
“I got a caricature picture from you a few months ago and loved it. Was hoping to get another one made if possible. They got engaged in Times Square so could you put that as the background? She’s a guard so could you have her wearing the uniform, and have him in a Mayo jersey?”
[I replied - For the Times Square background there will be billlboards, so we will need something on them. So can you think of some products that are relevant to the couple? I'll put a Mayo flag on one of them. Anything else you can think of?]
“Great idea with the billboards. So she is from Galway and he is from mayo , so you could have the 2 flags, or they are both very into Gaelic football so you could have a picture of Sam McGuire cup with both flags on it? I can't really think of any products, maybe Corona or Supermacs , she was big into rowing so maybe a picture of people rowing?
Could you try put an advert saying 'Mundy playing live tonight 18th march 2017 in Copperface jacks, with special guests Martha Coyne and Eoin Sweeney' if you could fit it!”

“I received the picture last week and delighted with it thanks very much, have recommended you to a few friends! “ - Louise
Engagement Present Idea
Email From Customer
“It's an engagement caricature I'm looking for. I have attached the photos, you can let me know if you need better ones or not. I have also attached a photo of him with his team mates it's the only photo of him with the goalie jersey. It’s the white with number one on it.
So I was thinking could you do beach background him down on knee with ring and with jersey on and maybe a hurley and helmet somewhere in it. Would it be possible to put the black top on her that she is actually wearing in the picture and white leggins because that’s what she was wearing on the day.
Could I get the date put in 21st of May 2018 and the place Torrevieja, Spain somewhere, or put in “congratulations on your engagement”. I will get the A3 size”

Present For an Engagement at Christmas
Order Details From Customer:
“I would like to get another engagement print off you. On this one he proposed to her Xmas morning while opening presents under the tree. He had a box done up with scrabble letters saying "Mammy will you marry Daddy" and there were two teddies in it with the names Evan and Ethan in it see pick below. Is this something you can incorporate in the picture?”

Engagement Present Cartoon Clontarf Seafront
Email from customer:
“I would like to get a caricature done for two friends of mine that have recently gotten engaged.
They got engaged at the seafront in Clontarf in Dublin so I was thinking of maybe having that in the background along with a bench with a heart engraved on the bench with Joy and Des (their names) on it. If you think that would work?
I was thinking of something a little different and not have them posing together as a couple but maybe instead have them separate? Joy is a dancer (ex ballerina) so I was thinking maybe she could be pirouetting in the foreground of the picture (or even better, on the bench!)
I know that probably sounds a bit mad so I’m open to suggestions on what you think would work best – I would just prefer to have something a little different to them just standing side by side if that makes sense”
Finished Caricature:
“Just to let you know I received the print this morning, I’m delighted with it. Thanks again for all your patience on this one! I have given your details to a few friends so hopefully you will hear from them!” - Yvonne
