    Legendary San Francisco tattoo shop. The owner, Jason, is not only an incredible artist but also a genuinely kind person. Jen Wong, another tattoo artist at the shop, is exceptionally talented and deeply appreciated by her clients.

    Jason did full sleeves on both of my arms, and they've held up beautifully over the years. I still get compliments on them all the time, which is a testament to the quality of his work and artistry.

    Thank you for creating tattoos that are not only stunning but also deeply meaningful. They've become such an important part of my identity, and I'm grateful every time I look at them. I couldn't recommend this shop more highly.

    I have a lot of ink from different artists through the years and different styles of tattooing. Jason from Picture Machine is the most consistent, down to earth, and has done more work on me than any other artist and I’m always blown away by the work he produces for me. From concept design to color and placement, he works with you to get what you want and what will look best and he does it with a good sense of style and personality. When I leave the shop I always can’t wait to get more tats from him. He has done custom tributes, unique design ideas we threw back and forth, black and fine needlework and also lots of color work. He is a true artist and professional....read full review

    10/10 experience. I’ve been following Joel Weston’s work for a long time and was so excited to get a piece done by him. I gave some ideas and sent some pictures of a piece I wanted and Joel sent me over a custom draft, I gave some feedback to tweak a little bit and Joel was happy to oblige. The shop was clean and had a great vibe. The work healed very nicely, quick recovery time. I get compliments all the time on his work and would definitely go back for my next tattoo. Thanks Joel!
