Before you submit your inquiry

Have a basic idea in mind - you dont have to have a crystal clear idea, or have every bit of the design figured out - that’s my job! As a custom tattoo artist ( who has a deep love of symbolism), my job is to help take your idea to the next level and present to you ( in the consultation) the options.

I offer standard Hourly sessions, Half-Days, Full Days, 2-Day Sessions and Open Canvas Sessions. More info on those in the section below!

Please avoid including too much personal information in your inquiry. I am always happy to take on a memorial tattoo or scar coverup, but I need to have healthy boundaries for my mental health when it comes to more emotionally charged work. I am happy to hold space for you.

AFTER you submit your inquiry

I ask that you please give me around 5-7 days to get back to you - sometimes I’m a bit faster, but I’m just one lil guy over here answering these, so thank you in advance for your patience!

Generally I will want to do some sort of consultation with you, unless you are giving me creative freedom ( like an Open Canvas Session).

I can do Zoom, phone or in-person consultations, but for coverups and large-scale projects I require you to come in if you’re able.

Once we have done a consultation, and you’ve decided what kind of session you want to book, then I will present a few date options to you or send over a link. Deposits are required to book all appointments*

*please be ready to put down a deposit when you submit your inquiry. I will not hold a date if you are unable to submit your deposit within 48 hours of receiving your invoice.

Session Types + Rates

  • Just what it sounds like! This is the default of most tattooers.

    I only ever charge for the time that needle is to skin, and run a timer during your session for transparency. I pause this timer for any longer breaks or bathroom breaks.

    My rate is at $225/hr with a $300 deposit - this deposit is NON REFUNDABLE but counts towards the FINAL session of your tattoo.

    I am currently offering a discounted rate of $200/hr for LARGE SCALE Black and gray projects such as sleeves, back pieces, leg or arm panels, full torso. This rate is offered at my discretion.

  • Works similarly to booking a standard custom piece, but a little more concentrated. A great option for someone coming in from out of town, or to get a large project started.

    You'll have me the full day, from 12pm-9pm, with a hard 9pm cut off.

    We take a break from 3:30-4pm to order food.

    Full day sessions are set up for my clients who know they can sit for at least 6-8 hours.

    Day Rate: $2000

    Deposit Required: $1000 (50%)

    Deposits are NON REFUNDABLE but count towards the session. A deposit Agreement is required.

    If your tattoo requires more work than can be coompleted in a Full Day session, you will receive a lower hourly rate for any additional sessions required. This rate will be at my discretion based on the amount of work to be completed.

  • Similar to the Custom Full Day session, this is that, but x 2!

    What’s included: Two days of at least 4-6 hours of tattooing.

    Each day lasts from 12pm-7pm. We stop at 2pm each day to order food.

    Total cost: $2800 *

    Deposit Required: 50% of total cost: $1400 ( $700 applied per day), $700 due each day.

    Deposits are NON REFUNDABLE, but 1/2 counts towards each day. A Deposit Agreement required.

    *This rate is offered at a discount vs booking two Full Days at my Full Day rate .

  • Open Canvas Sessions are for clients who want to fully trust the process and let me take the creative lead. These full-day appointments are designed for large, original pieces—without the usual back-and-forth of design revisions. You won’t see the artwork beforehand, but we’ll review it together at the start of your session to make sure you’re excited to move forward. I’ll even provide lunch to keep us fueled for the day. Open Canvas is perfect for people who love my style and want something unique, bold, and thoughtfully crafted.

    Pick from a list ( posted on my Instagram) of concepts I’ve been dying to do, but haven’t gotten asked for yet. Propose a size, and a placement, and I do the rest.

    Full Day Rate: $1500 ( usually $2000)*

    Deposit Required: $300

    Deposits are NON REFUNDABLE but count towards the session.

    *If your tattoo requires more work than can be completed in a Full Day session, you will receive a lower hourly rate for any additional sessions required. This rate will be at my discretion based on the amount of work to be completed.

Custom Tatt00 FAQs

 

  • My books will reopen for custom tattoos on May 15th for booking July - September 2025

    • high contrast Black and Gray

    • Full Color

    • NERDY SHIT - Think DnD, Magic the Gathering, your favourite book, your favourite movie or show!

    • Fantasy

    • SciFi // Cyberpunk

    • Animals

    • Mythical creatures

    • Freehanded things! I love doing freehands :)

    • Shiny Things - weaponry, armor, trinkets

    • Person faces ( think “lady head” but gender neutral lol)

  • If you follow me, you should know what my work typically looks like. I tend not to deviate too much from strongly outlined and well-rendered pieces, but just in case, this is my breakup-list:

    • “No /light shading”

    • “Only linework”

    • “Scientific illustration”

    • Right now I am not looking to take on botanical pieces, unless there is another element included like an insect, animal, magical thing, etc.

  • I am all for having a particular aesthetic you are going for - however I only can tattoo things in my stye and ask my clients to give me as much creative freedom as they can. This results in a much better tattoo experience on both sides!

    If there is a particular tattoo style you like that is not reflected in my current portfolio, you can always ask me. I’ve been known to take on an American Traditional piece here and there but for the most part there are artists here in Seattle and elsewhere that are much more skilled than I am in other styles! I have a list of people I refer out to that are safe, respected, and rad humans!

  • I do, but on a case-by-case basis! I absolutely love coverups and appreciate the challenge, but I will always be 100% honest as to whether my skill level matches what’s needed, or if laser is needed beforehand.

    I do not do any coverups that are not color.

  • No. I build in plenty of time at the beginning of your appointment to go over the design and make any necessary changes.

    Clients that opt into a Full-Day or Half-Day session of any type, I will do my best to provide with their design the day or two before your appointment. These clients can also ask for progress sketches, but no earlier than 2 weeks prior to their appointment.

  • I do my best to post updates on where I’m at in booking/replying to people on my socials - so please keep an eye out there!

Need a touchup?

EMAIL ME!

Please keep in mind this is for tattoos I have done only. Touchups are done with a $50 set up fee**

** with the rising costs of supplies, I am asking all touchup appointments pay the set up fee, even if your tattoo was done in the past year.
