"My tattoo journey really started after my mom passed in February 2020. Part of my grieving process was really thinking about my family, my roots, and my place in the world. I’d had an idea for a tattoo for a long time, to honor my wife and my sons, and I finally decided to go for it.
Having known Naomi for a while, I knew she was a talented artist, and really wanted her to do it. I loved how it turned out, so I kept going. I would give her ideas about what I had in mind and, for the most part, gave her creative control. The result was beyond my expectations, she understood the story I was trying to tell, and she brought it out perfectly.
Since first working with her, I’ve told her that, if she moved away, I’d wait until I could go to wherever she was to get another tattoo; that’s how confident I feel about her work. She’s also mentored a couple of very young, talented tattoo artists that I would trust as well. Tattoos are for a lifetime, and there’s no one else in the world I would go to other than Alchemy Tattoo!" --R.
"Naomi has been working on my coverup (2 sessions now, one more to go) and her work is just amazing. She is a very honest person. The shop is super cute and relaxing, not the typical tattoo shop. Her staff is very welcoming. I did a lot of research when it came to this coverup, I told her what I wanted and she brought it to life. I am giving her free range on colors, etc and she is just taking it out of the park! I’m so in love with it. I will definitely be getting more work done in the future!" -D.
“Being tattooed by Naomi is unlike other tattoo sessions I have had. She is kind, welcoming, and makes you feel right at home. Her attention is solely on you and your tattoo during the time she is with you for your appointment, which makes a noticeable difference in the experience. I felt at ease and calm in her presence and studio, almost like a spa, definitely not like many tattoo shops I have been to. Naomi takes her time with the details of your tattoo and it shows in her artistry." -C.
"I love Alchemy Tattoo! Naomi did my first tattoo and she did amazing. The line work is perfect and I have two more tattoos scheduled with her. Highly recommend her and this tattoo studio! Everyone is super friendly and the atmosphere is very welcoming."-S.
