Q: Can I set up a consultation with you?
A: Sure thing! While it’s not necessary, you’re welcome to stop by the studio to discuss your ideas in person. Just email me first, and we’ll set up a time to meet. You can also drop by the studio anytime we’re open, but it’s best to call ahead to make sure I’m around.
Q: How long are you booked out?
A: I usually book about a month in advance. I try to keep my schedule flexible, so I don’t book too far out. If my calendar starts getting full, I cut back on new appointments.
Q: How long does a portrait tattoo take?
A: A color portrait usually takes 4-7 hours, and a black-and-grey portrait takes 2-7 hours, depending on size, placement, and detail. Larger pieces might take longer. I can give you a better estimate once I see the picture and know the size and placement.
Q: Are there private rooms at MD Tattoo Studio?
A: We have an open studio setup, but we do have two private rooms available if you need privacy. Just let us know 24 hours in advance.
Q: Do you do cover-ups?
A: Yep, I still do cover-ups. Send me a picture of your existing tattoo and let me know what you want to cover it with. I’ll give you my opinion and let you know if it might need some laser treatments first. Full-color works best for cover-ups.
Q: Do you do touch-ups on other artists' work?
A: Absolutely! I believe no one should be stuck with a tattoo they're unhappy with. If you have a small piece from another artist that needs some love and you're not going back to them, send me a picture of your existing tattoo. I'll see what I can do to help you out.

A: I don’t usually do guest spots, but if I do, I’ll post about it.
