Booking

How booking works

Books open a few times a year. The waitlist hears first, then applications open here. I read every one myself.

Books are closed · next window [DATE] Join the waitlist and hear before it goes on Instagram.
What are you interested in? Pick any.
One email when books open. No newsletters, and you can leave anytime. (Prototype: not connected yet.)

Pricing

Realism is built over full days, so I charge by the day rather than by the piece. Every design is quoted once I’ve seen your idea, size and placement.

Day rate
$2,000 per full day
Deposit
$300 per day booked, paid by card once you’re approved
Moving a date
Your deposit moves with you with [notice period] notice

What the application asks

  1. The piece: new, continuing or cover-up; subject; colour; size; your idea in a few lines.
  2. Placement and references: where it goes, and up to six reference photos.
  3. Availability and contact: the days you can do, where you're travelling from, and how to reach you.

Official channels

I only take bookings through this page. Deposit links come only from [bookings@ address]. I’ll never ask for payment by DM. If something looks off, check this page.
