Matt D. tattoo ya ta death

Matty D.
I was asked to shot some promotional photos of Matty D, a tattoo artist who was trained in Melbourne and was blown away by the amount of skill this guy has when you consider that he has only been tattooing for 13 months. Obviously his art work is what makes this young man who he is but I didn’t want to narrow it down to just that. I wanted to explore the other side of this artist, I wanted to express how he would use his hands and tools to create something pure and beautiful. I wanted to emphasize the relationship he has with his gun, how fast but careful he worked and of course, the finished product.

I hope you all enjoy.
