Ever play with needles? Can't say that I have, under doctor's orders to restrict myself to things that shoot. The same does not apply to my partner, so this weekend we headed to the appropriately named Mama Tried Tattoo Parlour in the Highlands.
They've been coming here for close to a year, getting their arms worked on by Victoria here. Victoria was kind enough to give me permission to shoot, so the Nikon came along too.
Alright, how many of y'all have tattoos? There's nary a one on me, but that's mainly because most of my 'good' ideas don't age well. Plus my firearm and camera habits always got in the way.
Have always been fond of tattoos, my judgement on the other hand, not so much. Haven't been in too many tattoo parlours, but this one is my new favorite, and not just because I got to take photos there.
It was just a fun little place, art everywhere, and besides where else are you going to get to talk about sumo wrestling with your tattoo artist?
Didn't hurt that Victoria was amazing. Well, the tattoo may have hurt a little...
Before I knew it our time was up. There's still more to be done though, so we'll be seeing Victoria again soon.
