Book Flash or Custom Tattoo with Ian Reynold – San Francisco Tattoo Artist

Every tattoo I make is designed with intention — whether it’s a one-of-a-kind flash or a custom piece built around your idea. I work out of a private studio in San Francisco filled with plants, light, and care.

Fill out the form below to request a custom piece or one of my available flash designs (see available flash here), and I’ll be in touch with booking options.

  • Fill out the request form below with your tattoo idea, placement, size, and any reference images. I’ll review your request and reply with availability, pricing, and next steps.

  • Flash designs are my original drawings, offered first come, first served — and I only tattoo each one once. Custom tattoos are designed around your idea and tailored to your body. See here for my available flash pieces - Available Flash Designs

  • My private tattoo studio is located in the Mission in San Francisco (3150 18th St #363, San Francisco, CA 94110), with lots of natural light, plants, and a calm, one-on-one atmosphere.

  • I focus on blackwork tattoos that blend botanical elements, symbolic imagery, and bold, esoteric forms with fine-line and bold chunky elements. I offer custom and original flash designs — each one tattooed only once.

  • I typically book a few weeks to a couple of months out, depending on the season and the project. If you’re hoping for a specific timeframe, mention that in the form.
