I am so grateful to have such a large number of people who want to work with me. To ensure that I remain focused and at peace in my work, I close my books when they are full. For me, “full” is dependent on how I approach booking each round. I try to open my books twice a times a year and offer as many slots as I am able to take on. Twice a year, I try to release a round of pre drawn flash, and once a year I open my Freehand / Custom request form. I am hoping to release my next round of flash in August 2024. I will post updates on my instagram and website!

There are 3 types of booking options: Pre Drawn Flash, Free Hand, and Custom. Along with those types, I also offer Razzouk Stamps and have a Hope Eden event twice a year. Please be patient and do research on how I approach my work, as it is different than most to ensure I am honoring each client and the time we have together. I will be prioritizing doing pre drawn flash as a majority of my future work. I also plan to take on a small amount of free hand and custom designs projects each year. Please keep watch of the booking page for more information!

I don’t perfectly fit into any general tattoo style, but I find myself deeply inspired by Book Illustrations and Etchings. My work is primarily based around line work, with intentional light shading to create dimension. I specialize in Black and Grey Illustrative tattooing, and my art is influenced by the high contrast between the canvas (skin) and the thoughtful placement of black. Often, I find that my work sits between realism and illustrative. From afar, my work is often viewed as realism, but up close you will find the illustrative techniques that hold the art together.

At this time, I do not have a waiting list. If there is a cancellation, that spot is automatically given to one of the accepted pieces waiting for their appointment to be scheduled. The only way to get on my active list is to be accepted during a "Books Open" time. Also, subscribe to my newsletter for updates!

I am grateful for each and every person who reaches out to be tattooed by me; however, I am not always the best tattoo artist for every piece. I ask that you look through my work to make sure that my style and the designs that I do are what you desire. While I want to be pushed in my art, I am very specific on the custom pieces I take on. If you find that I am not the right person for you or what you are wanting is outside of the projects I am accepting, then I would be more than happy to help you find another artist who can bring your idea to life.

This may be the question that I get asked most, as this is uncommon among tattooers. However, from the very beginning of laying the foundation of how the studio would operate and function, I prayed and felt lead to only do three tattoos per person. Through setting this limitation, it has been evident that the unique value and purpose behind every tattoo is protected. I want to tattoo as many people as I am able to. In order to do that in the unique way that I approach my work, this rule protects our time and the value of the moment. *Razzouk Stamps and Hope Eden designs are not included in the 3 tattoos.

Every design is individually priced based on the design complexity, size, and location. Though I do not price hourly, my price typically breaks down to about $200 per hour. My shop minimum is $150 as I only do an hour minimum session. A $100 deposit is required to confirm your appointment and the deposit will be part of the total price.

Pre Drawn Flash is priced a bit lower, as I remove the design time since it was not requested by the customer. So, you are receiving a piece that I want to do, rather than requesting me as an artist to create. The price reflects that. Once the appointment date is confirmed for a custom piece, I will send the price estimate.

Freehand appointments are only booked in Half or Full Day sessions, as we spend a good amount of time hand drawing and prepping for the tattoo. A 3 hour half day session is $600 and a 6 hour full day session is $1200.

True Eden Studio is located in Franklin, TN. It is a private studio, so the address will only be sent upon appointment confirmation!

No, as a private studio, we are appointment only.

I do not accept cover up pieces. On occasion, depending on the simplicity of the first design, I have accepted cover ups. My style does not include much shading and I don't accept a piece unless it can be transformed well using my existing style.

Yes, I absolutely love accepting these requests. I do not cover them, but my goal is to find a way to design around the scar and make it less visible. I believe there is a way to bring beauty to something that once held shame or trauma. Scars must be at least 1+ year healed for me to tattoo over them.

Not at this time. All of my work is designed specifically with my client and directly intended for me to tattoo.
