How Photo Sessions Work
Booking
See form below
Use the form below to apply to the tattoo session you're interested in. Applications responses will be done on a first-come basis, so if you have an eye on one of these sessions, don't wait too long to reach out!
Once a deposit is left, we'll set a date and time to tattoo!
Part I
Tattoo session
We will start the experience by tattooing the selected design! Tattooing will be done at my studio, Muse Tattoos, located at 8311 NE Hwy 99 in Vancouver, Washington. You can choose any placement you like that fits the size of the design and will be visible in the outfit you plan to wear at the photo session!
Part II
healing
There will be at least a two week gap between the tattooing and the photo sessions to ensure your tattoo is fully healed and can be exposed to sun, shared/public surfaces, and any other impromptu germs. Following proper healing is very important for your safety and the longevity of your tattoo. To see my tattoo aftercare recommendations day-by day, you can view them by clicking here.
Part III
Photo session
My photography style shares similar goals to my tattooing style - I want to capture authenticity, joy, and the radiance you carry around you. Photos filled with laughter, movement, and fun create memories full of the same, and you'll love the perspective that joy brings to viewing ourselves. You will get 30+ final photos that you'll be able to download and print as you please! That's right, a digital print release is included! You can see the photos I took for my first photography + tattoo experience here!

Have Questions? FAQ Below↓
What does the total price include?
Prices are listed by each design or per person for couples/matching designs. This price includes a full tattooing session, a professional and high quality portrait photoshoot, AND any entrance/parking/permit fees needed for entry to the photo location. This price does not include gas, travel, or lodging costs you may need to get to the tattoo or photo location.
What placement can I get the tattoo?
Placements are always flexible unless stated in the listing description. Keep in mind your tattoo will need to be in a visible placement for the photoshoot, so keepin mind your personal clothing comfort level as well!
How will the payment schedule work?
Upon booking, you'll need to leave a $150 deposit. $200 will be due at the tattoo session, and $200 will be due at the photo session. You have the option to pay all at the tattoo session, but it is not required. (For couple's/friend's sessions, a deposit will need to be paid by each person at time of booking)
What if it rains on our photo day?
I will monitor weather closely leading up to our session, but unless there is dangerous weather such as a storm warning, snow, or unsafe driving conditions, the shoot will happen rain or shine! So bring a coat and backup shoes!
Can I bring a friend to the tattoo and/or photo session?
Support persons are always welcome! You will receive a entrance/parking ticket for yourself, but please be aware any guests may have to purchase their own entrance tickets.
How do you deliver photos? Are digital downloads included?
You will receive 30+ high resolution photos in an online gallery where you'll have access to download them and print them as you please for 30 days. There are NO extra fees, session fees, download fees, etc. The experience price is all inclusive.
Do I need to bring anything to the tattoo OR photo session?
For your tattoo, you'll need a valid government-issued photo ID. For the photo session, you'll just need to show up in your favorite outfit and be ready to have some fun!
I reccomend bringing a jacket or coat along with you in case we are met with any rain or wind. Comfort is important and we can always take warm-up breaks!
