Yes. The customer gets to see a proof, once the order has been placed and paid for. The customer gets a receipt of the purchase after they order and pay for the caricature. Changes can be made from the proofs and the final art, but I do the final art from the proof. All caricatures are signed off before the caricatures are delivered.
The most important thing you must do is fill out the online order form correctly. This includes, tick the appropriate boxes for you order, supply the best photos you have, [no selfies] and a detailed description on how you want the caricature to look, this is your theme, and very important when you need it delivered by. Most customers forget this.
Yes. But if I have completed the caricature after the proof has been approved no refund will be issued. Providing I have met their time frame. A 50% refund will be issued from the full amount paid at the proof stage, if the customer is not satisfied with the proofs. In most cases the proofs can take longer to do than the final art this is because generally I have to research material for references to draw for the proof, plus the assembly. A full refund will be issued if the caricature was not received in time. This is for emailed and posted caricatures only.
Option 1 and 3 are drawn on the Wacom Cintiq which has a far better pixel resolution than the ipad pro has, plus the line work and colour calibration is far better. The ipad pro is a more cost effective caricature option, but customers still like them.
I use a few different framers depending on what state you live in, I use the framer who has their business in the same state. All frames are a tidy black timber with matting of my choice to suit the caricature. The frames are not the most expensive available. I choose the frames to suit my costing from the shop.
I have a 48 hour emailed caricature, to be sent 48 hours after the order is received. Delivery of emailed caricatures are set by the customer, caricatures are generally sent days before they are due these details are sorted out with the customer. Framed caricatures the customer needs to allow 7-10 working days to receive their order. All framed caricatures are express by Australia post couriers.

I do any type of events from Weddings to corporate events Kids birthday parties.
Christmas parties-private house parties, it doesn't bother me.
I'm located in the Sydney region, but I travel frequently to all gigs.
I've been from Hobart-Perth to Cairns you'll be surprised how affordable it can be for you.
My fees are $150-$250 per hour, with travel accommodation/flights need to be added.
Speedy caricatures I can do in 2 min. or standard caricatures 4-6 min. the ipad around 6-8 mins.
It really depends on your event, for instance I can spend 8-10 min doing really quality layed colour caricatures on the ipad
or simply knock them out as well, it's best to call me to discuss what best will suit your event.
In most cases you need three hours, depending on your event you may need 4-5 hours.
I do two hours as well but please ask me about this option. Trade events are 6.5 hours longer days need to be negotiated.
I draw both, it really comes down to the discussions between me and the client,
in most cases though we go with just head to chest as it is quicker. But its'your choice.
Both are perfect forms of mediums for caricatures and both produce good work,
but as a rule ipad caricature will take longer to do because of the colour work.
Ipad caricatures can be displayed on screens etc. ipad are popular for trade shows.
I supply all my paper [200gsm or thicker] pens and markers, plastic sleeves to
place the caricatures in, with the ipad I supply printers, photographic paper, protection sleeves
plus all connection devices for screen display etc. I just need a table and chairs.
I really like to sort my times out and fees prior to the event, if we both think there is
an option for another hour we can have this set aside, and use the extra hour if needed.
It's important to respect that once the allocated time is up, please allow me to
pack up and go home. Let's face it no one likes working for nothing.
My site has three options available to pay, direct debit, paypal and Eway credit card gateway. Events are issued a invoice at the beginning of the month of the event. Any refunds are paid via direct deposit into the customers bank account.

If I'm traveling and I have book accommodation/flights the client forfeits this cost.

otherwise the full amount of money paid will be refunded without fail.
