hi guys

 

I got a tat in Feb from you mob - I was the guy from ALice Springs with the wife who was the photographer - she gave you some advice about shooting tats for your website.

 

The tat looks great.  The colour stayed in thanks Brad, and people comment on the fine lines. Well done.  I'm a happy customer and my wife wants one now.

 

All the best.

Hi

Can you thank Steve for doing my tattoo on Saturday. I am more than happy with how it turned out and everyone that has seen it thinks it's stunning..

Maybe you'll get a few more enquiries :0) Not that you don't have enough anyway

Thanks again.

Hi Guys,

After the first night with my new Ta Moko I have to write a few words to you for saying thanks again. I really enjoyed the time in your shop in the warm and friendly atmosphere. It is obvious that you all are not only great artists but also have fun doing your work (I loved Brads way of laughing).

And probably I do not need to tell, but Mike did just an amazing and awesome job. The Moko is just beautiful, and I really love it.

I've read quite a bit about Ta Mokos during the last few days and the discussion if "pahekas" should get one or not. I promise to cherish this gift, it means a lot to me that I found the perfect way in telling "my story".

Thanks to all of you and special to Mike, you are awesome.

Have a good time,

See you,

Steffi (USA)

 

 

Hello again

Just wanted to thank Andre for my tattoo today - I LOVE IT!!  I hope I didn't talk his ears off, sorry if I did, I get stuck at home most days so don't get the chance to get out much and talk to people  :)

I would rate this tattoo as my best tattoo experience so far and will be recommending Otautahi Tattoo to everyone!

Thanks very much from a very happy customer.

Hey guys,

This is Lauren, I was in yesterday to get the southern cross on my foot.

I just wanted to thank you all for a great experience. I was a bit nervous (as you might have been able to tell :)) but you guys were funny and entertaining, and helped calm me. Special thanks to Steve for his patience and kindness that made my experience the best it could have been

:) I love my tattoo, and even though I know you all are able to do much more complicated work than stars, I appreciate that you did an awesome job on my foot even though it was probably a breeze compared to other pieces you have done.

You guys are awesome and if I decide to get another tattoo while here in NZ, I will definitely be back to see you :) Thanks again Lauren (Australia)

 

 

 

Hey guys,

Attached a couple of pics after the tattoo had healed but just wanted to say how stoked I am with the end result. While cops may not be your most favourite clients, I appreciate the professionalism you showed even though you may have preferred to stab me instead :) I couldn't have imagined a better tattoo and have only received good comments about it. Hopefully I have a bit of business coming your way and no doubt i'll be in for another piece of art in the near future,

Cheers,

Nick (Christchurch Police)

 

Dear Frazer,

I wanted to thank you for your assistance in setting up my recent appointment.

Your facilities are beautiful, very clean and the staff friendly and accommodating.

Mike did an incredible job and I couldn't be happier with the result.  His respect of the other body art in the vicinity of his design is very much appreciated.

Please thank him again for an excellent job, beautifully rendered. 

I am very proud to wear a piece of his.

Best regards,

Hi Frazer & Brad:

I just wanter to say a big thanks to you Fraz for welcoming me to the studio and taking the time to discuss my options, and for organising Brad to do some drawings.

If it wasn't for your outgoing approaches I'd proboably still be a virgin to tattoos!

Also a great big thanks to you Brad for the fantastic shoulder covering you produced for me - I'm stoked!

So keep up the great work guys, and thank you once again.

I have quite a few celtic designs already as im welsh but im very impressed with your maori designs and cant wait to get one myself. (England)
