Tell me
the idea.
Custom work, booked one piece at a time. Send me as much or as little as you've got and I'll come back with honest thoughts on whether it works at the size and spot you want, plus what it'll cost. No pressure at all.
01
Send me your idea
Fill in the booking form with whatever you've got so far. Subject, roughly where on your body, rough size, and any pictures that are pointing you in the right direction. Honestly, half an idea is completely fine. Someone once sent me "a plant, on my arm, not too girly" and it turned into one of my favourite pieces.

02
We chat it through
Fifteen minutes, either at the studio or on a call, whichever is easier for you. We'll talk about whether it works at the size and spot you want, what it'll look like in ten years, and what it'll cost. If I'm not the right artist for it, I'll say so and point you toward someone who is. No hard feelings ever.
Free, and no pressure at all
03
I draw it up
I'll design it and send it over before your appointment so there are no surprises. One round of changes is included and genuinely expected, so please speak up if something isn't quite right. It's your body! A small deposit holds your date and comes off the final price.

The fun part
Private studio, no walk-ins, no audience. Eat a proper meal first and bring something to keep you busy. We stop whenever you need to stop, as often as you like. You'll leave wrapped up with aftercare notes written for your specific piece, not a photocopied sheet.

Before you ask
Anything I haven’t covered here, just pop it in the form. No question is too basic, especially if this is your first tattoo.
How much does a tattoo cost?+
Small pieces start around $180. Anything bigger gets quoted per piece after we chat, not by the hour, so the number I give you is the number you pay. If it takes me longer than I planned, that's my problem and not your bill. A deposit holds your date and comes off the total.
How long is the wait?+
Usually about two weeks for smaller pieces and three to five weeks for bigger custom work. Flash days get announced on Instagram roughly two weeks ahead and they do fill up fast, so keep an eye out!
Where are you?+
Dear Vincent Studio, 230 Lakeshore Rd E, Unit 305, in Port Credit, Mississauga. It's a private studio so it's appointment only, no walk-ins. Most of my clients come from Mississauga and Toronto, and there's parking plus a GO station just a few minutes' walk away.
Do you tattoo minors?+
No, sorry! 18+ with valid government photo ID, no exceptions, including with a parent along.
Will fine line blur over time?+
It softens a bit, and honestly all tattoos do. How much depends on placement, line weight and how it was drawn in the first place. That's most of what I'm quietly managing at the design stage: minimum line weights, spacing that won't close up, and being upfront when a design is too detailed for the size you're picturing. If something won't age nicely, I'll tell you before we book it.
Can you cover an old tattoo?+
Sometimes! It really depends on how dark and how big the existing piece is. Send me a clear, well-lit photo with your booking form and I'll give you an honest answer: whether it's possible, whether it needs a few laser sessions first, or whether another artist would do a better job for you.
Do you do touch-ups?+
Yep, and they're free. One touch-up within six months on anything I've tattooed, as long as you followed the aftercare. Cover-ups almost always need one and I build it into the plan from the start.
What should I do before my appointment?+
Eat a proper meal, drink lots of water, get some sleep if you can, and skip the alcohol for 24 hours beforehand. Wear something comfy that gives easy access to the area. Bring headphones too. Sessions are quiet and you're completely allowed to disappear into a podcast.
