Many times I'll ask for his artistic impression because I think he is so talented that I'd rather him decide vs me! His overall process is fantastic, he's a hard worker, and most of all, he is REALLY good at what he does. No negatives here but if your looking for anything from an actual painting to him creating a mural on you, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Extremely talented, professional and precise, I would 110% recommend to anyone who wants work done on them, just make sure you make an appointment as he's very busy.

All sources say this spot should've been open, but once I walked there with a friend for a birthday tattoo I planned to gift her, there was not a SINGLE sign of this Place being open, nor any signs as to where we should go instead if there was a relocation. The phone number wasn't active either ‍ so either they were messed up this day (a Tuesday in the middle of the day); or something's going that I wasn't aware of, or that wasn't broadcasted. I'll give it two because I assume they do good enough work. But I never had the opportunity to find out

I knew that I'd found the right place as soon as I went to the website. Everything was explained in great detail. I followed up by emailing Brandon regarding pricing. He responded quickly and kept in touch. He even emailed me just to let me know that the shop was going to open later than usual so I wouldn't just arrive and have to wait. A little anxious, I brought along my friend for moral support. Brandon was really wonderful and put me at ease. He walked me through the entire process and answered all of my questions. I was really worried that it was going to hurt like hell but I'm happy to say that it was more uncomfortable than painful and it was over in no time. I am now pierced and I couldn't be happier with that decision and the decision to choose Encrypted and Brandon. I'd highly recommend this studio and its owner. Professional at every step, kind and knowledgeable. I'm already trying to decide what tattoo to get next so that I can go back to the shop. Thanks Brandon for making my piercing experience a great one! :)

Being a second tattoo, and my first experience not so great (from another shop), I was a bit unsure as to what to expect. In the creative process, working with Camille using a mix of my original idea and what she had created as a mockup, was pleasantly easy. She had also thoughtfully drafted up the piece in such a way that would age better while maintaining substantial detail - partly by increasing the overall size I had originally envisioned, which was necessary. She then printed out 4 different sizes of the outline for me to pick between keeping these things in mind. Camille is an incredibly gifted artist and a wonderful conversationalist. I was mesmerized watching her freehand all the details after the line work, and chatting with her made the 3+ hour process fly by as she kindly entertained all my questions I fired away at her as an experienced artist and person. I will say that I had payed more than I originally anticipated by quite a bit, but keep in mind that I had made the decision to increase the size of the tattoo pretty substantially as well which isn't easy to plan for - knowing this, Camille deferred any tip when I offered. Anyway, good tattoos ain't cheap and cheap tattoos ain't good! Highly recommend for anyone looking for quality work backed with high confidence beyond competence. Thanks again, Camille!
