Frequently Asked Questions

My rate for in-studio sessions is $2000 per day. I only work with one person each day. If you want to get a smaller tattoo that will only take an hour or two, we can work on multiple designs to make it worth your investment.

On the day of your appointment, I am relentlessly focused on our vision for your tattoo(s). You will get my undivided attention. My aim for every client is to create a one-of-a-kind tattoo that looks amazing and fills you with pride for life. 

Note that sessions typically include approximately six hours of tattooing. Some appointments may go longer if needed. Please plan to show up fed, rested and sober.

I focus on challenging, detailed work that pushes creativity and elevates the body as a canvas. I’m drawn to pieces that require intention, precision, and depth — whether that’s a large-scale concept or a highly refined standalone design.

My work often blends realism, surrealism, and futuristic elements, designed to move with the body’s natural structure and feel powerful from every angle.

If you value craftsmanship, bold execution, and a tattoo that truly enhances your presence, we’re likely a strong fit.

I work with one client per day to give each project my full attention. Every session is booked at a single-day rate.

Payment options: Cash, Zelle, Venmo, Cash App, and Apple Pay. 

Every tattoo I do requires a preliminary phone or video consultation. This ensures I’m the right artist for your idea. I will not compromise on my ability to offer the highest standard of tattoo and deliver an amazing experience, without exception. My goal is to give you your all-time favorite tattoo. Consultations are essential in that process.

Once your form is received, I’ll reach out to you directly to book your consultation call.

To secure your session, I require a $300 non-refundable deposit, which goes toward the cost of your tattoo session. This signifies your commitment and allows me to begin the creative process. From the moment you make this deposit, the planning and design of your custom piece are already underway. So, please only schedule when you’re 100% committed to moving forward.

You may reschedule your session without losing your deposit, provided you give me at least 72 hours’ notice. Your deposit will be applied to your new appointment. If the rescheduling happens with less than 72 hours’ notice, or if no new session is booked within the 6-month timeframe, the deposit will be forfeited. 

Remember, your deposit is about honoring the time and creative energy that go into preparing for your unique tattoo. I encourage you to reach out as soon as possible if your plans change, so we can find the best way to keep your tattoo journey on track.

I tattoo on weekdays from 11 am to 7 pm Pacific Time, though sessions can sometimes extend depending on various factors including how you are feeling. I also conduct consultation calls during weekday evenings. 

Absolutely, I’ve received a health board certification for my studio, a distinction few studios in Portland have. This certification means the health department has thoroughly inspected my shop and found it meets all their stringent requirements. I ensure everything is meticulously clean, using sprays that eliminate all potential contaminants. My studio is not only clean but also comfortable and inviting, ensuring clients have a pleasant experience throughout.

For aftercare, I usually use a medical-grade bandage like Second Skin. My recommendation is to either use this or a similar product for a few weeks, re-applying weekly (I’m happy to help re-apply if you stop in) or simply let it heal naturally without applying any products. The key is to let the tattoo dry without excessive moisture, as this can lead to scabbing. Once the tattoo starts cracking and peeling, you can apply a moisturizer for comfort. The main goal is to avoid unnecessary products and touching of the tattoo during the initial healing phase.
