Thanks for your interest in getting tattooed by me! I’ve tried to streamline the process as much as possible to make it quicker to get from this point to getting tattooed.

Pricing:

3 hour minimum per session

Smaller (8×8″ and under), single session tattoos are priced by the piece

Large scale session work on arms/legs/back are priced at $225 an hour. I am a very fast/efficient tattooer, so most of the  tattoos you’ve seen on my page were done within 2-5 hours. My pieces generally are completed in 1/2 the time of most other artists I know.

(No exaggeration. I have friends in town that share clients with me since we do similar things, and they always warn them that they’re not as fast as me and don’t know how I do it. haha!)

For ribs, chest, stomach, and other more difficult areas of the body; hourly will depend on skin/body type of the area.

Deposit:

It’s $200 to book an appointment that I will send by invoice. The deposit is non-refundable/non-transferable. You’ll be putting the deposit down to secure your appointment for the specific tattoo we have agreed upon here. The deposit does fully apply to the LAST session of your tattoo.

Once the deposit is in, I will send you a list of the very next available dates/times to choose from. If you’re trying to book the very first available dates, pick 2-3 alternate dates; since those are the first to go and could be taken between the time of me emailing you the dates and you getting back to me. Once you’ve chosen the date/time, we will get your first appointment booked. If it’s going to be a multi-session tattoo, I’d suggest to book at least 2 sessions at a time as to not have to wait for schedule openings.

Make sure that you are sure on what you’d like to get tattooed. Once the design is submitted and approved, that is what the deposit is going toward. Minor changes in elements of the tattoo here and there are accepted, but no complete subject changes please. (ie. originally emailed with a sleeve, chest piece, or larger color tattoo but now changed my mind and want a small 2×2″ or black and grey piece instead)

What you see on my Instagram page is the style and type of tattoos that I do. I only do nature based imagery (flora, fauna, rocks/minerals, etc.) in a realism style. No black outline and with a decent natural background behind it to hold everything together. I am moving away from tattoos without a background. I feel it’s stifling what makes a good tattoo a great tattoo and I want them all to be great and especially eye catching.

The final size of the piece will ultimately be up to my discretion. I will work with you as best I can to be as close to what you’re wanting in size, but I’ve had too many issues with the tattooing being too small to look it’s best. I want your tattoo to looks as great as it possibly can and this is a restriction that has stood in the way of me doing that.

** I DO NOT do coverups, UNLESS:

1. It is something that is already very light or faded with NO BLACK areas
2. It has been lightened by lasering significantly to be easily covered or
3. The original tattoo is very small and can be covered in the background of the new piece. The new piece would need to be 3-4x larger than the piece to be covered.
