Elena Rivera

Hey! I’m Elena — first year tattooer born and raised Virginia Beach. I’m fun, patient, kind, and try to bring good energy and vibes to every session. Whether you’re coming in for a tiny spark of an idea or a full custom piece, I’m all about listening, collaborating, and giving you something you’re excited to show off. My mission is to make you feel comfortable, cared for, and hyped about your tattoo from start to finish.

My style is illustrative with a love for whimsical ladies, botanicals, and anything nature-inspired. If it looks like it wandered out of a fairytale or a garden, it’s probably my jam. But I also have a love for dark, creepy cute aesthetics as well! 

Outside the studio, I’m usually thrifting for treasures, wandering through trails and parks, gaming, hanging with my pups and cats, or grabbing good food with the homies 🖤

All bodies are welcome in my chair — can’t wait to create your new favorite tattoo!
