ABOUT LI WARD

I have been in the wedding industry over the past decade as a wedding photographer. But being a lover of ephemera, I always had a toe dipped in the calligraphy well. In 2016, after years of being commissioned by stationers for spot calligraphy work, I took the plunge and began offering full-service custom stationery on my own. Around this time I also became enamored with watercolors, and my style quickly evolved from minimalist, calligraphy-focused projects to whimsical, colorful, more-is-more custom designs. I revel in the possibilities that a custom illustration project presents, and as such, each piece I create contains dozens of hand-painted elements that uniquely reflects the personalities of my clients.

It is truly a labor of love!

I live in Boston, Massachusetts with my husband and cat Bingley. Despite all the whimsy and color in my designs, I dress in shades of black, gray, and blue. I have been honored to be named best calligrapher by both Boston Weddings Magazine and The Improper Bostonian, and was featured in an “Ask the Experts” article in the Spring 2019 edition of Boston weddings magazine.

I celebrate and support love of all kinds.
