Alla Prima Impression

A painting completed in one session.

Alla Prima, meaning "at first attempt" in Italian, is a painting technique where a piece is completed in a single session while the paint is still wet. This technique is especially powerful for capturing the fleeting beauty of moments, with brushstrokes that convey spontaneity, emotion, and an impressionistic charm. Often used for live events, Alla Prima brings immediacy and vitality to the canvas, reflecting the scene in its raw, dynamic form.

Why It Matters

Alla Prima allows me to capture the lively energy and authentic emotions of your wedding day as they unfold in real-time. By working wet-on-wet, I can translate the joy, excitement, and tenderness of each moment directly into the artwork without overworking or losing its freshness. The result is a vibrant and heartfelt piece that feels as alive as the day it commemorates—an unfiltered, dynamic memory of your special day that will evoke the emotions you felt each time you view it.
