PRICING

I price my work based on size these days, so that you what you pay is not beholden to how quickly or slowly either of us work. That being said, I often work fairly quickly and because of this, my sizes are often slightly different from what my clients think of as “small” or “large”. We can get a lot done in a day- for instance, for this piece the client arrived at 1pm, we fully drew it on their body and tattooed it, and we were out the door by 6:30, with about 4 hours of active tattooing. Work with black fill will take longer, and full or half sleeves with a lot of black fill may require two sessions.

I think of pieces as falling into two categories. Something like this is complex and something like this is more loose. This affects pricing as much as size, so its a factor worth considering for what you are interested in.

As you may notice, my ranges below are wide; this is partially because of sliding scale, and partially just because pricing my work is sometimes really challenging. The prices below are meant to act as a guideline for what your piece may cost before you reach out- then, once we get into specifics together, I’ll confirm what range your piece falls into. Your budget factors into this consideration.

Once you have that quote, the price never changes even if what we do takes longer or is more challenging than I expect. On occasion I will have overestimated how complex or large something is and will reduce the price after we finish, but never the other way around. The only time a price will be raised is if you ask for a major change in the moment, like adding a significant amount of work by changing the size drastically (like from phone sized to paper sized, for example), where we both understand the change in price before committing to it.

I deeply appreciate those who pay on the higher end so that people who need to pay on the lower end can do so.

I prefer not to do "mini" pieces of 1-4 inches, but sometimes they happen. I can do mini pieces for a guest who is accommodating someone getting something larger, or as an addition to something else you’re getting.

I’m always open to payment plans if that works better than up front, paid in installments either before or after our session. I’m also open to some forms of trade. I’d always rather do something cool than be a stickler about money- so if we meet each other openly and honestly, I know we can find something that feels good for both of us. I can’t wait to hear from you, and thanks ♡
