Live Wedding Painter at The Little Nell
Five-star ski-in, ski-out hotel at the base of Ajax
Why The Little Nell Inspires Live Wedding Art
Floor-to-ceiling windows, art-lined halls, and a mountaintop deck accessible by gondola make this venue pure alpine glamour.
I paint the Sawatch Range as soft watercolor layers fading behind the couple's vows.
Portraits on the Wedding Deck capture the entire town glittering below.
Favorite Creative Moments at The Little Nell
- Timeline inspiration: Schedule portraits immediately after the gondola ride so guests are still buzzing from the ascent.
- Logistics that keep the art flawless: High altitude dries watercolor quickly; I prep extra palettes for crisp blending.
- Seasonal magic: Summer wildflowers speckle the landscape with color, while winter ceremonies feel crystal bright.
