Professional Tattooing by Natalie Davis

BOOKING INFORMATION

Thank you for taking an interest in my work! If you have any questions that are not answered by the information below, please visit my FAQ.

WHEN TO submit a project

I open my books 2-3 each year. The timing of this varies, so booking dates are announced on my Instagram about a week prior, or you can sign up for my newsletter in the box above. If I haven’t posted the next booking date, then I haven’t narrowed it down yet! I book 3-4 months of appointments at a time, so the amount of projects I accept is limited.

HOW TO Submit a project

I only accept submissions through my website’s appointment form. This form is only active during a booking date and is deactivated once I receive an adequate amount of requests. I begin to answer emails the following day. This process can take me a week or so to complete. When reviewing submissions, I choose based on projects I am most interested in. Not all submissions will be accepted.

COST AND APPOINTMENT DETAILS

DEPOSITS

If your project is chosen, I require a non-refundable deposit that must be paid upon scheduling, no exceptions. Your deposit price will vary depending on your project.

  • Half day: $100 deposit

  • Full day: $150 deposit

  • Multiple session full day: $100 deposit per estimated sessions

You are allowed 1 free reschedule per booking period with at least 48 hours notice. A second reschedule, or notice given under 48 hours, will require a new deposit and forfeiture of your original deposit. If multiple reschedules occur, I reserve the right to drop the project and cancel any future appointments altogether.

TATTOO COST

  • $350 minimum, cash is preferred. If you would like to pay with card, there is a 3% service fee. All designs are priced by piece.

  • Half day: $350-$900

  • Full day: $950-$1750

I cannot tattoo you without a valid government or state issued ID.

Late appointments will be cancelled if you have not shown within 20 minutes.

All designs are presented the day of your appointment. I do not send any drawings ahead of time. As long as you communicate your idea clearly, your design will come out exactly as you wish or even better than you expected! Any changes to your design ideas must be submitted and pre-approved by me BEFORE the date of your appointment. You will have the opportunity to make minor changes to your design at the time of your appointment, but major changes will require a rescheduled appointment and second deposit. I reserve the right to drop your project if the agreed upon design idea is changed completely or majorly altered.

Please eat a full meal 1 hour before your appointment to help with pain management.

No guests unless approved prior to your appointment. (i.e. clients with mobility limitations or double appointments)

SCHEDULE // AVAILABILITY

I tattoo Tues-Thurs. Full day appointments are scheduled for 1pm. Half day appointments are either scheduled for 1pm or 5pm. I do not schedule tattoo appointments for after 5pm.

I will do my best to accommodate your availability. Please ensure you are able to commit to the date I offer before your pay your deposit.

Please plan to be at the studio for the amount of hours I have allocated for you.

WHAT I AM LOOKING FOR

  • Clear and concise ideas that can be described in 1-3 sentences. Wordy submissions may be overlooked, as well as submissions that are vague or have no design idea. Unfortunately I do not have time to chose something for you!

  • Unique, stimulating projects that allow me full artistic liberty, as well as dedicated clients that are flexible with availability and pricing.

  • Full day projects that can be completed in one session. I do accept smaller half day projects, but not as many!

  • 2-4 large scale projects (per booking period). This includes sleeves, back pieces, torso pieces, etc. For these projects, I prefer to work with 2-4 subject matters as large imagery. For example: A bird, a flower, and a moth. If you apply for a large scale project, you must have be able to complete in within a year of your first appointment. I prefer to work on large scale projects every 1-2 months.

  • Unique placements/flow.

SUBJECT MATTER I am interested in

  • Pet portraits

  • Flora and fauna imagery (ex. a cat with flowers. A hawk with magnolias.)

  • Vases with flowers/plants

  • Birds - especially unique species

  • Moths - especially unique species

  • Mushrooms

  • Landscapes/nature scenes

  • Tigers/leopards/big cats

  • Traditional tattoo inspired hearts

  • Hands holding things

  • “Cute spooky”/halloween imagery (planchettes, cauldrons, tarot cards, etc)

  • Portraits/busts

  • Barbed wire & chain link

  • Weapons

SUBJECT MATTER I AM not interested in

  • Color projects

  • Norse Gods / Norsemen / Viking imagery

  • Anything culturally inappropriate or insensitive

  • Crows/ravens

  • Human skulls

  • Anything very macabre (It won’t come out as creepy as you want in my style!)

  • Octopus/Squids

  • Clocks/watches

  • Religious or political imagery

  • Anything very small, linework only, no shading

  • Text or quotes

  • Recreations of other art
