click here for a copy/paste email template with all the info I need to make things as easy as possible!My Instagram DMs are open to chat, but not for booking tattoos unless I'm trying to fill a spot last minute.I sort through tattoo requests based on ones I feel like I’d be the best fit for AND that have all the information I’ve asked for in them. Your request will not be considered if all the information is not provided.What are your rates?My hourly rate is $180/hr
I have a two hour minimum
$100 non-refundable deposit is required to bookDeposits are taken off of the price of your tattoo the day of your appointment. If your tattoo requires multiple sessions the deposit is taken off of your last session.Payment methods:Payment can be made via cash, Venmo, or Zelle.What days do you work?I work Wednesday- Saturday & take appointments starting at 12p. (On days I'm not working on a larger piece, I will book an additional time slot at 3:30 reserved for palm sized or smaller pieces)How long is a typical session booked for?I book sessions for 3-5 hours per sitting. I work fairly quickly and can get a lot done in that time frame. 5 hours is my max I will do per session-- this is so you receive the best outcome without overworking your skin, or myself!How far out do you book?I book 2-3 months at a time!Do you do consultations?Yes! Just let me know in your email if you would like to schedule a consult to discuss more details.I typically find that I don’t need to do them if all the information I’ve asked for is provided, but in some cases I will ask to set one up prior to our appointment if I have any questions or concerns about your design.I offer consults mainly virtually (FaceTime or Zoom) as I find it’s easier to work with everyone’s schedules, or in person at 27 Tattoo Studio.What is the cancellation/rescheduling policy?If you need to reschedule your appointment, please let me know as soon as possible. Reschedules at least 72 hours before your appointment time will not result in loss of your deposit.Reschedules less than 72 hours before your appointment may result in loss of your deposit.No call/no shows will automatically lose your deposit.If you are 15 minutes late or more without notice, I reserve the right to withhold your deposit.This does not include if you're feeling sick or have an emergency-- communication goes a long way and I just ask that my time is respected and I will always do the same for you!What if I don’t hear back from my email or booking form?Please don't take it personally if I don't take on your request!It's most likely the tattoo you are interested in getting is something out of my ability or not necessarily a style/subject matter I am looking to pursue at the moment.If you haven’t heard back and feel your request may have been missed— please feel free to nudge!Do you do cover-ups?I do cover ups/reworks if I feel like it's something I can take on. It's best to have multiple ideas and also be flexible with them as there are a lot of limitations when it comes to covering something.Will you work on existing/previous work form another artist?Yes, as long as I feel like it's something I can take on- and if not I'II do my best to give a recommendation for another artist that might be a better fit.When do I get to see the design?Drawings will be shown the day of your tattoo appointment, I do not show the design beforehand however I do leave room during our appointment to make minor changes/adjustments.If you're not 100% happy with your design and I need more time to make changes, we will reschedule your appointment for a later date.I do my drawings in appointment order, and typically draw up your design the night before/morning of your appointment. This is what works best for me and enables me to focus on one design at a time, giving it the attention it deserves!I don't do any designs without a deposit/appointment in place.Please make sure to familiarize yourself with my work located on my Instagram to ensure my style matches what you are looking for!Where are you located?

Pet Photo Tips
Your photos play a huge part in making your tattoo. While my style does allow for artistic interpretation, having a strong reference photo helps me do so more accurately.
Lighting
Natural light will always be the best option! Whether it’s outside or by a window. Try to avoid backlighting your pets as this can create harsh shadows. You want their coat color to be as true to real life as possible.
For the best tattoo references, getting on the floor/ground with your pet at eye-level is best.
Pet won’t stay still?
Try a video! If you have an iPhone, turn on Live Photos— both of these options are great reference to screenshot different angles.Hold a treat or their favorite toy by the camera or make a silly noise that will grab their attention.
Reward heavily!
Your models want to get paid and they deserve compensation!Most importantly, keep it fun! Don’t make this a stressful event and try it in small doses to get your pet comfortable.I hope this helps, if you have any specific questions feel free to send an email!
