Doodle Booth

Spark Haven Studio serves most of the Dallas–Fort Worth area. Use the service area checker to see if I serve your area. A travel fee may apply for some locations.

If you’re using a venue or third-party location, please confirm in advance that your venue allows outside vendors. Venue policies may vary, so checking ahead helps ensure a smooth experience.

Additionally, if you're planning to have the doodle booth outdoors, I strongly recommend having a backup indoor plan in case of bad weather.

Depending on the number of people, each completed drawing (consisting of 2 poses in color) can take about 5 to 10 minutes.

Taking into account varying group sizes and transition times, I average around 7-9 completed drawings per hour.

I can fit up to 3 people in one drawing.

Unless there are no other guests waiting in line or I’m not busy drawing, each guest may be drawn one time during the course of the event (no repeats) and must be present at the event. This allows for those who haven’t been drawn yet to have a turn.

I aim to complete as many drawings as possible during my time at your event. If I don't finish all the illustrations up to the number of guests included in your package during your scheduled event coverage, I'll complete any remaining portraits in my studio afterward and mail them to you at no additional charge, which you can then distribute to your guests. Participation is of course voluntary. Guests who want to be drawn must have their photo taken by me before leaving the event to be included.

Post-event completion does not add additional guest capacity to your package.

Most guests will receive their drawing at the event to take home with them. But don’t worry, if there are any guests who wish to be drawn that haven’t been drawn by the time the event is over, I can take a quick picture of them and complete their drawing in my studio afterwards free of charge. Any post-event drawings will be mailed to you to distribute to the guests.

This depends on the service option you want for your event. For the Snap & Go experience, guests can simply come up to my booth, and I’ll grab a quick photo of them to create their drawing while they go enjoy the rest of the event.

If you want the best of both worlds, I can run the Live Interactive experience during times like cocktail hour and briefly switch to the Snap & Go experience during any special moments that you don’t want guests don’t miss, such as speeches or dances.

Packages include the stated number of guests. In this example, it would mean 40 guests are included to be drawn, not necessarily 40 standalone illustrations. If two guests wanted to be drawn as a pair, one standalone illustration would be made and given to the pair.

I'll need one 4–6 foot table and 3 chairs (or just 1 chair if choosing the Snap & Go option for the whole event). If you or the venue don’t have these available, I can bring my own at no additional charge. An outlet or power source would also be greatly appreciated if possible but is not required.

Yes. Spark Haven Studio carries general liability insurance and can provide a certificate of insurance upon request. If your venue has specific insurance requirements, please let me know as soon as possible.

Bookings may be canceled by the host for a full refund up to 10 days before the event. Each booking includes one complimentary reschedule; additional reschedules may be subject to a rescheduling fee.

If weather, operator illness, unsafe conditions, or other unforeseen circumstances prevent the live drawing photo booth service from taking place as scheduled, I’ll contact the host promptly to discuss available options. If the event must be canceled, the host may choose between rescheduling, receiving credit toward a future booking, or receiving a full refund.
