Lauren Houghton

My name is Lauren and I specialize in black and grey surrealism. I have been tattooing for four years now, and co-own Graveyard Friends Tattoo studio in Ogden Utah with my boyfriend Brendan Collins. My work consists of bold contrast, crusty textures, negatives, and a hint of elegance with a gothic feel. I love anything dark, mysterious, horror but i have a broad spectrum of projects i love to put my spin on. I travel and love to compete in conventions all over place, always looking to fill those spaces as well. I work with alot of large scale work for the most part but i am open to smaller designs as well. I hope to make something custom that you will be proud to wear in the future !

Please send in your form any reference photos that you like with clear detail of what you like and dont like about them. Give me every little detail you want to see in this design. I do not send out designs prior to any appointment so I need all of the information before i start the design. I start making my designs the weekend before your appointment so make sure i am filled in on any changes or possible additions to your design. Please include anything that you ABSOLUTLEY DO NOT want to see in your piece (eg. spiders,skulls, birds,webs,ect) I want you to get what you want in the cleanest way possible thats going to flow with the design. Give me your ideas and let me make you something with my artistic style. I do not tattoo exact designs sent to me, I will always spice them up to be different. Be clear in placement and what you're looking for. Be prepared to make a deposit and get your day set upon approval of your design. Consultations can be in person or through a call or facetime. All in person consultations will be at Graveyard Friends tattoo studio. MUST BE OVER 18 I do not tattoo minors even with parental consent.

Cancellations and reschedules that happen the weekend and within the week before your appointment will be a loss of your deposit. To set another date you will be required to send another deposit for another date.
