CUSTOM TATTOO BOOKING REQUEST FORM

CUSTOM BOOKING REQUEST FORM

🖤 Thank you so much for your interest in a custom tattoo project! 🖤

I selectively take on custom work that feels strongly aligned with my artistic style, strengths, and current creative interests. My favorite projects are often collaborative in spirit, while still leaving room for me to approach the design through my own visual language and instincts as an artist.

Because of this, I’m not able to accept every custom request that comes my way - but if your idea feels like a good fit, I’d be excited to work together.

I intentionally limit the number of custom projects I take on at one time so that I can give each piece the care, thought, and creative energy it deserves. I have a waitlist for custom work because of this.

I handle all my own bookings and like to give each request thoughtful consideration, so please allow up to 7 days for a response. Thank you so much for your patience and understanding.

✶ ✶ ✶

The Custom Process

Once I receive your completed booking form, the next step is usually an in-person consultation where we can discuss your ideas, placement, scale, and overall flow of the tattoo.

During the consultation, I may take tracings and reference photos of the area being tattooed and make rough compositional sketches to help guide the design process.

I work best when clients trust me to interpret ideas through my own artistic lens, rather than replicating exact reference images or highly prescriptive concepts. Tattoos that allow for this level of artistic freedom tend to create the strongest final results and feel the most fulfilling for me creatively.

Drawing Fee

A drawing fee is required for all custom tattoos. This fee covers the time spent researching, planning, sketching, and developing your design.

Drawing fees start at $300 and ultimately depend on the complexity and scope of the project. I’ll confirm the exact amount after our consultation.

There is no fee for consultations.

Once your artwork is complete, I’ll share it with you for review before scheduling the tattoo appointment.

One round of minor revisions is included if needed. Additional revisions are always possible and will be priced fairly based on the amount of additional design work requested.

Booking Your Appointment
A $100 deposit is required to secure your tattoo appointment. This amount will go toward the cost of this appointment.

✶ ✶ ✶

Flash Tattoos
In addition to custom work, I also offer over 150 pre-drawn flash designs available to tattoo.

Many of my favorite tattoos come from clients choosing directly from my flash collection - or using it as a starting point for a piece that still stays rooted within my visual style.

You can browse the collection here: FLASH BOOK

I’m always open to small adjustments or customizations to flash designs where appropriate.

For flash tattoos, please use the FLASH BOOKING FORM

There is currently no waitlist for flash tattoos, and I’ll often have availability sooner for these projects.

✶ ✶ ✶

I tattoo at a private studio in Los Angeles.

If a custom project becomes inactive due to lack of client response (30+ days after artwork delivery), I reserve the right to repurpose elements of the design for future flash or portfolio use.
