BIOGRAPHY 

Salutations! My name is Emily and I have been absolutely blessed and honored to be tattooing here in Southern, Oregon for the last five years. Creating custom art for an individual is my happy place. My favorite part of tattooing is when a client gets to see the finished product in the mirror and they do a little jiggle and a wiggle, a happy little dance and a smile lights up their face. I live for that moment. Thistle and ink Tattoo Studio is a safe space. It’s like coming over to a friend’s place. Where we share ideas and spend time getting to know each other and most importantly we’re creating art together. Something indelible that you’re going to carry on your body for the rest of your life, that when you look at it you smile and I got to be a part of that. It’s an amazing honor and not something I take lightly. I think this approach to customer care,  consideration and integrity is the reason our clients voted us “Medford’s Best” Tatto shop 3 years in a row! That’s really saying something because we’re just two human beings, not a huge business and we’re quietly tucked away. But we make you feel safe and seen and in return you’ve done the same for us and we really appreciate that. So if this resonates, this is the vibe you’ve been looking for submit a project proposal or send us DM either of us on Instagram and let’s make some art new friend.
 

In the last year I have been blessed to mentor James LaFreniere. He is a lovely young man and a gentle soul. You can find examples of his work on Instagram @ink.king.james Booking can be done by Direct Message.
