We had Barrie at our wedding party this weekend and what a great job he done! Everyone loves their pictures. Thank you so much, we will definitely recommend

We had Barrie at our wedding last Friday and he was absolutely fantastic and had a great rapport with our guests. His drawings were brilliant, quirky and humorous and have continued to be a talking point. I would definitely recommend Barrie and even a few of our guests have already asked for his number.

We had Barrie at our wedding at Le petit chateau and he was fantastic! Guests loved the pictures, excellent talking point. Fab how he just mingles with the guests, highly recommend him for any special occasion!

We had Barrie at our wedding Saturday gone and what an amazing part of our day he was! Thank you again Barrie! All of our guests were very impressed and your drawings have made us cry with laughter! We absolutely loved having you there on our day. If anyone is unsure about having Barrie draw your wedding guests - please just do it! I can guarantee you will not regret it � x

We had Barrie at our Evening Reception last weekend and he was amazing! A great alternative to a photo booth, and lots more fun! All the guests loved their drawings, and it was a nice keepsake for them to go home with! Barrie himself was a lovely guy, and I highly recommend him!

We had Barrie at my great grandson christening yesterday he did a fantastic job. That is the second time we had him. First time was at my 60th last year he is great and I would highly recommend him. Thank you again Barrie ����

We had Barrie at a house party to celebrate my husband’s 50th birthday. Wasn’t sure how people would react but Barrie was fantastic with everyone from the start and put people at ease. He chatted with them as he was drawing and everybody loved their pictures. He even drew the two dogs, Ted and Milly which was lovely of him. The pictures were the talking point for most of the evening and days after. Everyone thought Barrie was fantastic and a true professional.

Thank you so much Barrie for making the evening very special and memorable.

Kindest regards, Amanda, Colin and Jack

We decided to go for Barrie instead of a photo booth to add a little quirkiness to our evening doo. Being the bride and groom we were extremely busy and didn’t get to introduce ourselves to Barrie until much later. By this time Barrie had plenty of our guests entertained by his fantastic drawings.

No queuing he just mingled around our guests at everyone’s liking. We’re so pleased we hired Barrie as are our guests who went home with a brilliant caricature drawing of themselves. We would highly recommend Barrie. Thank you.

Our guests loved Barrie at our wedding - there were so many comments about his excellent drawings. We had lots of laughter and fun looking at his caricatures and have some great memories now of our day.

We can't thank him enough.

James done our wedding a few weeks ago and he was so lovely! So warm and friendly not to mention his art made most of my friends and family’s night, he’s extremely talented. Definitely recommend xo

I’ve been lucky enough to work alongside Barrie at a number of weddings and events. His work is excellent and he has always had a great rapport with guests bring fun and laughter along with some great art!

Highly recommended!

I'm so pleased we chose to have Barrie as part of our wedding entertainment, as soon as he arrived our guests were dying to have their pictures drawn and they were absoutley brilliant and humorous. I speak for both myself and my husband when I say we wouldn't hesitate to recommend him to anyone! Thanks so much, you were great!

Had Barrie James at our wedding and was well impressed with his work, wouldn't hesitate to recommend, all the guests loved his drawings and he was the talking point for days later. If your looking for a caricature this man is the one you should use. Thanks very much Barrie you helped make our special day even better.

Louise and Tom Dixon

Can’t recommend this guy enough! He did our wedding last week and produced some brilliant pieces of art that everyone get to keep. Thanks mate

Barrie came to our wedding at Le Petit Chateau this week and did an amazing job entertaining our guests with his brilliant drawings. Barrie himself is a lovely guy and mingled well amongst all our guests and his drawings were a great talking point and keepsake for them. We would definitely recommend Barrie for your special occasion.

Barrie came to our Pirate Themed Summer Fun Day on Sunday 29th July, and has been the model professional through booking to being at the event. He kept in regular contact and is fair and reasonable. Throughout the event, you could see and hear the public laughing and having a good time swarming to him to get their pictures done. Feedback has been great and we will definitely be looking at booking him again for next year!! Plenty more food and drink next year. Would highly recommend. 6 Stars
