Wedding Gifts for Mom and Dad

It is not unusual for us to have clients ask us to create portraits as gifts. When our bride-to-be, Shannon, requested  two movie poster parodies to give to her parents as wedding gifts, we were really excited. We have created "Father of the Bride" paintings before, but the "My Cousin Vinny" concept was a new challenge. Shannon and her mother shared a love for the movie for many years. Making the two of them into "Mona Lisa" and "Vinny" (and her older sister into the judge) was pretty amusing.

The Endless Summer Save the Date

Amanda and John-Austin love old movies and they adore the ocean. He surfs and owns Caught Outside Photography and she spends her summers enjoying the beach. We combined their two passions into a movie poster parody of "The Endless Summer" (the colors from the original film and the concept from the sequel). Their dog Hobie was a must for inclusion into the poster. How much fun is this?!
