I try to respond to emails within a few days, but after I have opened my books it can take longer to respond to all the requests.
I take on coverups on a case-by-case basis. I am confident working on coverup projects, however, I want to make sure my abilities can meet the expectations of the client before accepting the project. You can always email me for a quick consult, but most projects require an in-person consultation before moving forward.
Yes, I am confident and capable of working on darker skin. I offer free color tests to clients with an appointment. I can show examples of my work on darker skin.
Normally, I do all of my drawings the night before or the morning of the appointment. You'll see the design when you arrive and if there's anything you want to change, we will do it together. I won’t tattoo anything on you that you aren't 110% in love with. Occasionally I will post a sneak peak of my drawing on Instagram while I am working on it.
Yes, I usually travel to conventions a few times a year. You can find my next travel dates on the homepage.

I have pain-relief products that I can provide a client as needed throughout the tattoo session. However, I do not allow clients to arrive to an appointment with numbing cream applied.

I like about a 40% input from the client. I enjoy when the client has a strong direction they want to go but leave most of the particulars of the design to me. It really helps when people list the things they want in order of their priority. Overall the most important thing I need to know if the mood for the piece.
A full day session is 6 hours, and is $1500. A half day is 3 hours and comes to $750. For projects that will take more than one session, the first session must be a full day. Then I require a $500 non-refundable deposit to book the appointment. This goes towards the price of the final session of the tattoo. Your appointment isn’t saved until I receive a deposit.
Deposits are non-refundable. The deposit will be void if you no-show an appointment, reschedule more than 2 times, or have not attended an appointment within six months.
Multi-session projects are expected to make regular progress towards completion. Clients must book appointments at least every other month until completion. A lapse in progress greater than 6 months will forfeit their deposit, and a new deposit must be placed to continue booking.
All clients must be of 18 years or older with a valid Driver's License or passport
Clients are expected to be clean and well-behaved during the appointment. Please bring headphones if you wish to listen to music or media.
Tattooing will stop if a client needs to make a voice or videocall.
