BOOKS CLOSED
Submissions for pre-drawn designs/flash days only!
* Nothing is confirmed until a deposit has been received. I will send a link for payment of $100 nonrefundable deposit that will be applied towards your tattoo following an agreed upon date, which will be due immediately. Please be prompt in email responses in order to ensure your appt.
I charge approximately $275 per hour on multi-session pieces, and have set rates (typically a range) for smaller/one session pieces, and will do my best to give you an accurate estimate, but please note any changes may affect final pricing.
Flash/pre-drawn pieces are tattooed once only unless noted otherwise. If done in blackwork, I will generally do the tattoo once more in color. Custom bookings are generally color only.
Please send a separate email with a picture of the area you’d like the tattoo at a straightforward angle. This will help me get an accurate gauge on size, and therefore a more accurate price range, as well as confirm the tattoo will fit in this area.
*CUSTOM BOOKINGS: Please be as specific and clear as possible in your tattoo idea to minimize going back and forth. You do not need a specific layout or design, but please know the elements you’d like (certain flowers, ornamental elements, etc.) If you are TRULY open and are willing to allow me to design something free-reign within the style you want, please specify this. I’m happy to choose the flowers, type of insect, bird, etc. for you! Please note if you choose this route, any specifics failed to mention and requests for change of the design will result in a design fee.
*If you have an extremely specific vision with layout/design, I may not be a good fit for you. My artwork is more organic and does not allow for extremely specific visions.
*My tattoo hours are Tues-Fri 9:30am-3:30pm. Friday availability is extremely limited.
*I will not copy or replicate another person’s artwork at all whatsoever. I work hard on custom designs for each client, and respect that each artist has their own unique style. However, reference pictures are extremely helpful to grasp a good idea on what you’re looking for. Please send reference pictures (of tattoos, actual photos, illustrations, etc.), including at least one that is of my work.
* I do not book any fix-up, cover-up, or direct add-on work (tattooing next to or snuggled around existing work is ok).
*I do not send drawings prior to your appointment, nor will I do multiple drawings. I understand this requires a lot of trust and patience. There will be plenty of time to look over the drawing and make any changes necessary until you feel confident in your design.
*Thank you for taking the time to read through this process and I look forward to possibly working with you!
