A Partnership With Footprints Through The Lens

A wedding,
painted twice.

Goldsman Art has teamed up with wedding photographer Shonagh of Footprints Through The Lens to turn a handful of your wedding photographs into an original, hand-painted keepsake, something that lasts on a wall the way the day lasts in memory.

Two crafts, one memory

Shonagh photographs it. Bradley paints it.

Shonagh is a documentary wedding and family photographer working along the South Coast, known for capturing the parts of a day that move fastest: a glance, a laugh, the walk back down the aisle.

Goldsman Art takes one of those fleeting moments and builds it back up slowly, in layers of acrylic, into something that hangs on a wall rather than sitting in a camera roll. Same day, same story, just told twice.

How it works

From your gallery to your wall.

Three steps, and you stay in control of the final choice the whole way through.

01

The shortlist

Shonagh and Bradley go through your wedding gallery together and pick out three images that would work well as a painting: strong light, a clear moment, a composition that will hold up in paint.

02

Your choice

Those three shortlisted images are shared with you directly. You pick the one that means the most, since the final decision is always yours, not ours.

03

The painting

Bradley gets to work in the studio, building the piece up in layers of acrylic.
