The London Silhouette Artist
The London Silhouette Artist comes from a family tradition of silhouette cutting handed down from her grandmother. Using just scissors and black paper she cuts a single outline of the subject in under three minutes consistently capturing an astoundingly unique likeness.
These portraits are elegant and timeless providing your guests with a memorable personal keepsake to treasure from your event. The silhouettes are mounted in cards which also have the option of being custom printed if required.
‘She is astounding! Truly fantastic!’ Jonathan Ross
She has a Bachelor of Arts degree in graphic design and illustration and has been drawn to sketching portraits since childhood.
The London Silhouette Artist's experience spans over 15 years having cut silhouettes at many prestigious venues all over the UK and abroad and for multitudes of corporate clients and well known celebrities. She also takes on commissioned studio work and her on-the-spot silhouettes are particularly popular at wedding receptions, balls and charity dinners.

She was amazing! I appreciated her staying to ensure that every who wanted a silhouette got one event though she stayed longer than she was booked for. She was patient, engaging and efficient. She added and element of enchantment and delight to my reception.

Everyone who was lucky enough to have their silhouette cut by you last Thursday was absolutely delighted: you have a remarkable and charming talent. It was also a pleasure to catch a moment, albeit sadly brief, to chat with you. I will treasure my beautiful silhouette as a souvenir of a lovely evening. Thank you very much for helping to make the evening such a joy.

The Silhouette artist cut myself and my husband’s silhouettes in the space of just about 8 minutes and they are absolutely stunning. I could not believe her incredible attention to detail and precision. She absolutely made our evening and it was wonderful to see her at work throughout the night, putting people at ease and putting a huge smile on their faces!

The Silhouette Artist was a great hit! Unobtrusive, yet warm and friendly, and so very talented. People were amazed how she could find the finer details in their features so as they were instantly recognisable from the silhouette art produced. Thank you.

OXO Tower Wharf, London, Corporate Event
Would highly recommend her. She was exactly what we were looking for on behalf of our client - something a bit different to act as an icebreaker during the networking drinks reception. She has a lovely natural and warm manner which put the guests at ease.

The Scalpel, London, Corporate Event
She was a joy to work with! She was flexible around our event's funny timings, interacted with the guests if they showed an interest in her work and added so much to the day. I wish I could have recorded the reaction from the guests when they were all given their art at the end as they were astounded and it really was the talk of the event!

She was absolutely fantastic, circulated the room all evening and the silhouettes she produced were incredible. We had some wonderful feedback from our guests, thank you very much!

Amy is at the top of my list for recommendations - she is truly brilliant. She cut silhouettes at my wedding and they were a great talking point of the day. People were stumbling to have their silhouette done. We have since framed the ones she did of our nieces and they are beautiful. She also cut silhouettes at our company staff day out which was held at The Royal Opera House. Again, her impact was fantastic and, as at the wedding, everyone had a memory to take home from the day. Amy is very well presented, talented, diplomatic, socially able and always very charming to have at an event. What she possesses is a very special talent. I have witnessed other silhouettists and they just don’t hit the mark that Amy does. Thank you Amy for adding something brilliantly original to both events.

Well, what a brilliant impact you had on both us and all of our guests! Actually having you there and seeing and hearing peoples responses exceeded our expectations completely (although of course we had absolute faith in you!). In hindsight the only thing we would have done differently would be to have hired you for longer so you could’ve got round everyone without your fingers falling off! It is such an amazing skill you have, we wish you every success in the future. Kindest regards,
Lucy and Ian
It was a pleasure to have Amy at our function, she delighted our guests with her amazing, true to life silhouettes. Everyone is still talking about her great skill and I would truly recommend her as a fantastic asset to any function.
