VINTAGE MADE MODERN /

Cyanotype Print Bar

A modern event experience using an old school photo process.

Handmade prints created live on site.

If you’ve never seen a cyanotype in person, picture this: a dreamy vintage blue print that looks like it fell out of an old archive.

Now imagine your guests getting to watch it happen live, then taking home a print as a keepsake.

This is a hands on, analog photo process where I create prints on paper using sunlight (or UV light) and water. It’s part art, part science, part “wait how did that just appear?”

It’s interactive, elevated, and unforgettable for any event where you want guests to actually engage.

What is cyanotype printing?

Cyanotypes are an old school photographic printing process that creates deep blue prints with bright white highlights. It’s a historic technique that feels modern again because it’s tactile, interactive, and honestly unforgettable in person.

During your event, guests can create prints using:

florals + greenery
lace, ribbon, and textures
handwritten notes or meaningful items
curated shapes and silhouettes
and optional guest portraits (yes, actual photos)

THE SHOWSTOPPER OPTION: GUEST PORTRAIT CYANOTYPES

Want this to feel like a full experience, not just a detail?

I can photograph your guests on site and turn those portraits into cyanotype prints. Think elevated photo booth energy, but the final result is handmade art.

Perfect for:

cocktail hour at weddings
reception downtime
brand activations
VIP lounges
corporate events where you want a premium takeaway

Guests get photographed, then they watch their print come to life in real time.

Guests get:

a quick portrait taken
a cyanotype print made from their photo
a one of a kind keepsake they’ll never throw away

The Who

Weddings + elopements
Welcome parties + rehearsal dinners
Brand activations + product launches
Corporate events + client appreciation nights
Conferences + team gatherings

Private parties

If you’re looking for something elevated, interactive, and different than the usual event entertainment, this is it.

The Cyanotype Print Bar is a live printmaking experience where guests create one of a kind blue prints in real time.

Cyanotype is an old school photographic process that produces deep blue prints with bright white highlights. Prints can be made using:

florals + greenery
lace, ribbon, and textures
handwritten notes or meaningful items
curated shapes and silhouettes
optional guest portraits (yes, actual photos of your guests)

Every print is handmade. No two are ever the same.

The What

Black-and-white photo of a young couple sitting on the ground, leaning close to each other, with city buildings in the background.

This experience fits beautifully into moments where guests are mingling and looking for something fun to do.

The When

A black and white photograph of a loving couple standing outdoors, with the woman looking at the man and leaning in close, in a wooded area.

The Cyanotype Print Bar can be set up almost anywhere, and it instantly turns your event into something guests actually remember.

It works:

outdoors using natural sunlight
indoors near a bright window
indoors with a UV light setup (perfect for winter, evenings, or indoor venues)

So whether you’re hosting a wedding, brand activation, corporate event, or private party, it’s easy to fit into your space and timeline.

And the reason people love it is simple: it’s not just a detail, it’s an experience. Guests get to participate, watch the print appear in real time, and leave with a one of a kind keepsake they’ll actually keep. It’s elevated, interactive, and makes your event feel truly one of one.
