The creator behind
V & L Studios
As an architectural illustrator specialising in detailed pen and ink drawings, I combine technical precision with artistic sensitivity to capture the unique character of each building. My work focuses on preserving the intricate details that make every structure meaningful, creating illustrations that tell a story through every carefully drawn line.
My love for architectural illustration began in early 2022, when I sketched the charming ‘Three Lives & Company’ bookstore in New York, turning a personal passion into a creative career. Since then, I’ve had the pleasure of working on a wide range of commissions, including wedding venues, family homes, pubs, businesses, and most notably, wedding stationery.
Over time, my work has naturally evolved to include semi-bespoke wedding invitations, illustrated save-the-dates, personalised guest books, venue portraits, table plans, and signage, each piece crafted to reflect the couple’s story and setting. I love the process of turning a meaningful place into a keepsake that becomes part of a much bigger moment.
I’m always open to new ideas and have also explored illustrations beyond buildings, including guitars, boats, landscapes, and custom icons.
Whether it’s a beloved home, a wedding venue, or a historic landmark, I believe every place holds memories and I feel honoured to preserve them through hand-drawn illustration.
