Nashalie Rivera

First of all I’d like to thank Shadow for the unforgettable experience of getting my first tattoo. 2 years ago I decided I wanted a henna inspired piece and a friend of mine had recommended Shadow. I looked into his work and right off the bat knew, I wanted him to be the artist for my piece. I had a consultation and was able to get the process started. Leading up to my tattoo appointment, I got to know a little more about Shadow and got to appreciate what he does for the Community. This made me feel more comfortable as he is a very transparent and laid back person. The day of my appointment arrived and he brought in this amazing energy that helped me prepare and feel comfortable. We designed the tattoo together based on 3 of his ideas and he made it fit perfectly. He went above and beyond to make sure I was comfortable and able to get through my tattoo session. He executed my vision and went above & beyond. I truly recommend you entrust him with your visions. He is a true artist and you will not leave disappointed. ☺️❤️

Josh Tennison has been working on an arm sleeve for both me and my husband and both of us are extremely happy with his work and creativity. Joshua Tennison is professional, caring, and a top of the line artist and in my opinion, one of the best tattoo artists in Indiana! He takes sanitation and cleanliness of his shop and practice very serious. I highly recommend Ink Fam/Josh Tennison!

Melah Rodriguez

Very clean and very professional. Great energy and their customer service was extremely superior. Monique did my nipples and my ear and it doesn’t even feel like I got a piercing. It was quick, smooth and easy. Very shocking to not feel a thing. I will be back to get another piercing and also a tattoo. Oh and the prices are unbeatable. Again I loved their energy. Thank you again InkFam.

Ashley Schaeffer

I had a half sleeve shoulder piece session in August with Shadow. I couldn't sit as well as I needed to complete it, so he also fit me in a month later (even though he is booked solid) to add a very important detail that I needed. He made it work for everyone and I am so grateful. Shawdowink's talent and passion of tattooing is next to none. He takes just as much pride in the work he does as he puts into the healing process and future of the work he does. One of the very best, for sure! Everywhere I go, if someone sees my work they compliment it and really love to look at the detail. Its beautiful! The rest of the staff at Inkfam are so welcoming and kind. A very comfortable place to be. Thank you for everything

Darren Hardaway

S/o to everyone that works within the shop. The energy and the vibes is unmatched. A very welcoming atmosphere but huge thanks to the artist Shadow for the work, time and his creative ability to deliver! His work too goes unmatched. 15hrs of pure patience and attention to detail & body language! We got more work to do!

Mo and the staff of InkFam have ALWAYS been awesome to me. I first encountered them when I wanted a nose piercing after 8PM on a random Wednesday night. They were the only shop that was open and willing to do the piercing. That is when I met Mo. From Day 1 Mo has always been the bomb and so very helpful. Not only did she pierce my nose, but she also gave great aftercare instructions and always made herself available if I had trouble changing a piercing. A few weeks ago I had issues changing my nose ring and at that time Mo properly educated me on the type of ring I needed to be purchasing as some are shorter than others. At that time I was fussing about my eyebrows and she let me know that she did those too. She explained the cost as well as the process and we made my appointment that day. I CANNOT BE HAPPIER WITH THE RESULTS! She was very precise with ensuring that I was comfortable, that I knew what she was doing every step of the way, and that I was happy with the color as well as understood proper aftercare instructions for my new eyebrows. I highly recommend Mo and the entire InkFam crew! Thank You!!!

Rhonda

I’m truly happy with the service that I received here at this shop. Monique pierced my ears and she re-pierced my nose. She was patient with me from start to finish and made me feel extremely comfortable through the whole process. And not to mention the shop, was extremely clean and organized! I’m looking forward to coming back very soon!

Crystal Abbott

I am a returning customer to InkFam. They are an unbelievable crew! Very welcoming, very clean, and very friendly. Monique Is a very good piercer. She’s quick, caring and very professional at her profession. I recommend her for any piercing.

Savannah Hargis

My experience started a 5 days before my tattoo was completed by Sean K. I was greeted and listened to very kindly and respectfully. He looked at my reference and instantly told me he loved the concept of the art and went into deep detail of his idea of what he wants to do. He gave me all of the information of what to expect day of session if I wanted. We decided to schedule! Upon entering the building today for tattoo day, I was greeted with smiles and great energy. Everything was very clean and organized. Sean explained what I was to expect for the day and he got to drawing. His energy an confidence was awesome! And his artwork is even more incredible! The stenciling he did was perfect and he didn't have to apply more than once. When we started the session, he made sure I was comfortable and had everything I needed close by. When he began, he counted down and I immediately could tell he had nice light hand. I didn't have any discomfort that I couldn't handle the entire time. He offered breaks and drinks. He explained alot as the session went on. I loved the conversations we had. Sean was always very professional. At the end he went into amazing detail which made the piece of art come more alive. I am beyond satisfied with my experience and I'm in love with my new beautiful art piece he has given me. 10/10 highly and completely recommend Sean K especially but any of the Ink Fam! THANKS AGAIN SEAN, YOU ROCK!

Evelyn Taylor

I came in to get my ears pierced and get a consultation for tattoos and met Sean and Monique. They were both incredibly nice, and I loved talking to them. They were professional, quick, and lovely to talk to and be around. I plan on coming here whenever I want any piercings or tattoos in the future.

K D

Monique was amazing. She made me feel comfortable and at ease. She explained every step and went over all jewelry options in detail. I will definitely be going back to see her.

Elizabeth Johnson

Monique did my piercings tonight and I could not be happier. She was very knowledgeable and did an excellent job! I will definitely be referring my friends to her!!

Felicia myers

Jacqueline Teahl

What an amazing experience! The whole staff was cool, calm and very helpful. The shop was clean from top to bottom. They take every precaution, and they all have great attitudes and amazing minds! I will definitely come back if I’m ever in Indy again. Thank you guys for putting an awesome tattoo on me today, it means a lot that you took the time to do this for my cousin and I. The little details mean everything. You made it happen and I couldn’t be more grateful! Thank you so very much

Allison Clegg

Great experience! I got a tattoo done by Sean Kiersztyn and was very impressed with the way I was treated and the overall result. Everyone I came in contact with at the shop was friendly and laid back but very professional and knowledgeable. I will definitely be returning for more work in the future.

Brooklyn Horan

Pierced my nose for the second time. Was nervous to do it again because I had a bad experience at a different place. Monique made me feel so comfortable and was very happy with my experience! Would highly recommend her for piercings.

Kristen Stephens

I just had my first of many tattoo sessions with Sean. He listened to everything I wanted and exceeded my expectations. His booth is immaculate and he was on it with hygiene. My tattoo came out literally perfect and he made sure I knew exactly what to do for aftercare. He was great to talk to and fun to hang out with. It was a great experience and I’ve already scheduled my next session. Highly recommend Sean!!!

Katie Roberts

Cloie pierced my industrial and my lobes and is by far the most amazing piercer i’ve been there! She was so sweet and talked me through everything. 100% would go back and would recommend her for any of your piercings!!

Bridgette Stoltz

Shadow did an amazing job as usual on my newest tattoo. I gave him a concept and he ran with it!!!! If you are wanting amamzing ink he is your man!!!

Amanda Brock

Got a simple nose piercing but still had a great experience. Once I make up my mind for my next piercing, I will be going back to see Monique!

Dawn Newerth

Got a half sleeve done by Shadow last night! Words cannot express how much a positive environment in a tattoo shop means to me. I loved EVERYTHING about it from start to finish. The atmosphere is dope. Everyone is super welcoming and friendly. The quality speaks for itself. He’s light handed so if you have a big piece, LOOK NO FURTHER! Top 2 and he ain’t number 2!!

Angie Billingsley

I had a few random small tattoos and I was really wanting to incorporate into starting a sleeve last summer. I had a consultation with Shadow and then started one arm. I was so impressed with his work I decided to go back and start the other arm. I just was in yesterday for a hip piece. I would recommend Shadow to anyone for his tattoo abilities you will not be disappointed. This is a lifetime commitment and you want it to be phenomenal and he will do just that!

Sarah Armstrong

Got my septum pierced today by Jennifer and let me just say she was absolutely AMAZING! so fast and i did not even know she had already done the piercing. Highly recommend her! She’s awesome at what she does! Thank you so much for such a great experience

Raven Brumfiel

When I say this is the best place for tattoos, I mean it! Shadow was awesome, took great care of me, and made me feel comfortable the whole time. He did an amazing job on my thigh piece and I’m blown away by it! I’ll never go to another artist. Incredible. 🔥 …

Lara Huntley

When I had got to inkfam I had talked to Shadow about what kind of a tattoo I was wanting and what I wanted to have all done with it and know that he was down with my idea and it also felt good to get a second opinion from a talented artist such as himself and he was very nice and knowledgeable! While getting this done it had gotten even better when I had gotten to meet a celebrity at the shop too!!! I absolutely can’t wait to come back to get the rest of this piece done and to see it all come through when it’s completed. I00% recommend anyone to go the inkfam and request shadow to do your tattoo because he will make it happen and it’s so worth it after it’s done

Jessica Vaughn

I've been traveling from North Carolina to Indiana to get my tattoos from Shadowink for years! I wouldn't trust anyone else. He's always professional, does an amazing job, and has a shop thats full of positivity and clean. I'm never disappointed and have sent so many friends his way who are so happy too!

Alan G Gonzalez

Overall all great service great chill people, love the vibe there. My tat came out just exactly how i wanted. My man shadow was amazing through out the whole process very knowledgeable, very professional, very clean and cares about the costumer’s well being. If i would give him 10 stars instead of 5 without a doubt i would! Again, number 1 artist in the indy region! 👏🏼👏🏼🙌🏼 (Can wait for him to finish my sleeve!)

Alyssa Clark

The people there are the best, more specifically the two female piercers! They are so welcoming and give great, detailed advice. I will only be going here for my tattoos and piercings from now on.

Ellen pearson

I'm working with Shadow and couldn't be happier or more impressed with the whole experience. He has been highly professional and thorough in the design process to make all my ideas not only a reality but to really bring them life. The shop itself is super inviting and clean and the staff very friendly. It's evident that creative art and compassionate service are driving forces behind the business. So excited to go back for more 🙂

Cookie Coleman

As soon as myself, my daughter, and my sister walked in the door. It was welcoming VIBE. We all went so my sister and daughter could get pierced I was there just for moral support. We were greeted by Shawn who made us feel super comfortable. He was very down to earth. Then we met Jennifer who was the piercer. She was a sweetheart and a bad a** at the same time. She was Very knowledgeable in what they wanted, the space was very clean. (I’m very particular about sterilization and clean spaces) So it was a “GO” for me. My daughter was getting a nose piercing and my sister was getting a septum piercing. Shawn was asking if I was getting one too. I said no, I have enough. Long story short, Shawn seen an opportunity for this to be a memorable family affair, so he paid for my piercing. Jennifer was very gentle and quick. She gave us all the knowledge we needed to care for our piercings. We all talked and laughed. Felt like I knew them for ages. We will definitely be back. THANK YOU ALL FOR THE EXPERIENCE THAT WE WILL NEVER FORGET.

Marleigha Clements

Mo was super nice and gentle with our piercings! Definitely coming back!

Bri R

I told myself that if I could get through this past year than I will do something big for myself and that is exactly what Shadow gave me! Between multiple surgeries, finishing my graduate courses, working while momming, and volunteering more than I slept, this tattoo means more to me than anyone will ever know. That being said, I seriously cannot thank him enough for sharing his time and talent by making this so much more than I ever thought possible. He understood the importance of this piece and took the time to work through ideas, placement, and even showed me what would be possible down the line if I wanted to keep adding. He continually checks in to see how it is progressing and always answers any questions I have had along the way. I cannot say this enough – but thank you for making this tattoo more than just a tattoo. The whole Inkfam team made this an absolute experience!

Micayla McKinney

Delaney is super awesome! She’s done several of my tats and tonight I got my mom to get this beautiful peacock feather done by her. Go see Delaney at InkFam!

Mazie 131

I had a great experience here i would definitely recommend it! All the workers are very kind and hospitable and respectful and all around great people!

Sharee Montague

Not huge on reviews but credit needs to be given where it’s due! I went to Shadow with an idea and during our consultation, he went through all the ends and outs of what was to be expected along with making sure I was getting everything I wanted out of my tattoo session. He is very thorough and even listening to him create my design in his verbiage was amazing all in itself. He does just as much research as you would for your own tattoo! On tattoo day, he is 100% about the cleanliness of his work area and I appreciate of that very much. Shadow completed such an amazing piece, that is just the beginning of my story. He replicated feelings which is really hard to do in an art form. I definitely recommend InkFam and Shadow for your future work!!

Lisa Mcguire

Just got a tattoo coverup done by Sean. I love how clean the shop is, the environment is so friendly and calming. Not only are there good artists there but they care about the community and giving back. They are having a toys for tats drive, where you bring in art supplies and get money off your tattoo. I love how they want to give to children that won't be getting Christmas. It's nice that they are encouraging children not to give up on their dreams, even if they aren't in a traditional place for Christmas. That speaks volumes to me on what kind of people work and run this tattoo shop. They are breaking down tattoo shop stereotypes everyday, and I'll never go anywhere else for a tattoo now. This shop is like family now.

Jordan Lacy

Went in and got my first color ink done. My wife came in for a quarter sleeve. The work on both was absolutely legit! Sean was the ultimate professional and host with great attention to detail and post work care. The coloring on my Great Lakes tattoo was so vivid and sharp. We ended up spending all day just hanging, watching It's Always Sunny, eating fire Chinese food on breaks, and just laughing and having a great time. if you want top notch work in one of the chillest environments possible...I highly recommend Inkfam!

Jessica H.

5 years of thinking about my first tattoo... mostly waiting to find the right artist and let me just say... I definitely found the right one. Honestly, Indy's BEST. I had a few ideas in mind for my very first tattoo but after seeing Shadow's work and truly amazing creativity, I gave him artistic freedom on my very large thigh/hip/side piece. I trust him, his skills and his artistic vision, without a doubt. 100%. That's a really big deal for a piece of art that will be on your body forever. He's THAT GOOD. As nervous as I was for my very first tattoo, Shadow went above and beyond to ensure my comfort. His passion and positivity are contagious. I'm beyond happy with my piece so far and can't wait for the next session. Each session is even better than the last. I'll never go anywhere else. All of those years searching for the right artist... it was time well spent to find Shadow and Inkfam. As I mentioned, I've spent quite a bit of time at the shop for my piece and I've only seen amazing work from everyone (Sean is also a phenomenal artist and Jennifer for piercings). Really you can't go wrong if you're going to Inkfam! Great team and great people. 5 stars, absolutely recommend.

Tyler Stone

Jennifer gave me my first piercing and did a really good job, and helped me through it. will Definitely come back for more, and to get a tattoo from sean! he seems really cool

Elaine

I had my nose pierced and she was awesome she took her time she explained the procedure and I was sorry relaxed I didn't even flinch I wish I could remember her name it's the only piercer that you guys have so she's a keeper!!!!!!!!!

Jennifer Scott

I had some previous work done that I wasn't to happy with that was older. I reached out to Shadow and asked for help. I wanted one piece to be touched up and another area covered. I had been looking at ideas online but was not absolutely sure what I was going to get until my appointment. I gave shadow all my ideas and told him I trusted him and gave him the freedom to do his thing. I could not be happier. I love my new ink....❤❤❤❤❤

Sara W

This tattoo shop is amazing. Everyone that works here is super friendly and they make you feel at home right away. Shadow did a piece for me that was very personal and as soon as week spoke I knew I could completely trust him to do it beautifully. His artwork is incredible and he understands how to place a tattoo so that it flows with a persons shape (which anyone who as tattoos knows is very important) Truly the most talented tattoo artist I have ever encountered. I will be getting more ink in the future and wouldn’t even consider going anywhere else. Thank you Inkfam!

Ashley Hollyfield

I highly recommend Inkfam! They are literally the best and are like family. Jojo has been doing my Peter Pan sleeve for almost a year now and I will forever come back for the rest of my ink. And, they are doing a Toys for Tats Drive that is AMAZING! It’s the best deal and best of all, you’re helping local kids! LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this place! ❤️

Logan Lynch

Where can I even start. These artist are the real deal. They take time and patience to design your dream tattoo. They work with their community and gift families and children with art supplies every year. Ashley, their piercer is very nice and diligent in her work. Shadow, just a joy to be around always being uplifting. Jojo always hittin the jokes and just being a kind honest person. This is how all shops should be ran. This is why we go

Cassandra Bailey

Jennifer pierced my daughter's ears and did a fantastic job! I highly recommend her. She was clean, professional, and wonderful with my 10 year old daughter.

Nicole Plaster

Called ahead of time for a walk in and Tank was more than ready for us to come in. He greeted us as we came in. As we talked about our tattoos, we were then told about toys 4 tats. We very much happy to take advantage of that situation! We love art and we of course want to provide for the children! Clean and welcoming, very much recommended!

Jessica Nelson

Came in today and my friend got a very nice tattoo from Jojo. Not only did he do a great job but he was very knowledgeable and personable!!! Very nice guy. I also got nipple piercings from Ashley. She did a great job...!! She was fast and very nice. They both did a great job!!!! Loving this place!!!

Brittany Lynn

Best tattoo/piercing shop in Indy!!! Shadow does amazing work. Literally obsessed with the 3 tattoos he’s done on me so far and Ashley comes up with the most unique and gorgeous placement and jewels for your piercings. The whole vibe of the shop is positively on point, always. Plus, two new artists just recently started too!

Ariel Lamb

Before I even got to the door I was greeted like family! I have had a horrible experience in a different tattoo parlor so I was sketchy about trying again at InkFam. My worry and anxiety disintegrated as soon as I saw the crew. They are the sweetest, most talented people you could ever meet. I donated $40 in children's art supplies to help their fundraiser. It is an honor to get a tattoo done by such caring people. I have found the shop I will continue to go to.

English Dave

Brent was Great he has been working on my sleeve for months pics coming soon as soon as the wrap is off, I cant tell you how well he took my ideas and turned them into a sleeve, the store is really nicely set up and very clean, the staff are cool (hot redhead), great location just off the highway. Got to meet the owner seems real cool.i would recommend going to these guys all day long.

Morgan Lovrovich

There is so much to say about INKFAM! Not only is it a tattoo/piercing shop its also a place to go if you want a Positive experience! This shop is nothing like any other place you've been in to get a tattoo or piercing! You walk in and everyone is so welcoming and positive! Shadow always makes it a point that you don't have to be getting any work done to just stop by and say what's up! Ashley is an amazing piercer! I've never had a problem! Both artists in there are very creative and make sure you are getting what you want! They hands down are doing something they love and aren't just doing it for a paycheck! They truly love what they do! Shadow is my artist, Happy to say I trust him with my all to let him freehand his artwork on me! He's not only an artist but a great friend! Such a positive & inspiring person!! If you've never been to INKFAM you're truly missing out! Go up there just to say hey && Meet the team!

Kristen Weddington

I got my cartilage pierced at the end of July at Claire’s. It was hurting still after three months and I didn’t know what to do. I went into InkFam and their new piercer Adam took a look, he took out my piercings and the felt much better. The next day I went back and got my other ear done and my nose pierced. It was a great experience! Adam is very good and the shop is clean and everyone is nice.

Jeramy Eversole

Inkfam is amazing! The whole vibe in this place is awesome! Stop in and see what I mean!

Jocelyn Bridges

I received a sternum piece from Shadow back in April of 2017, I am very pleased! Not only was my experience at the shop without a doubt wonderful, my ink has stayed vibrant! Shadow along with the entire shop make you feel at home! It was a six hour session and it sailed right on by so smoothly. It being in a sensitive area I was very concerned about the pain, Shadows technique made it seem painless. I would highly recommend this shop to anyone! Thank you so much for my stunning owl 💜 and for welcoming me into the INKFAM! Blessed to have crossed paths with such an amazing soul 🌌

William Bryant

Walked in for a septum piercing and Jennifer took care of me. Jennifer was professional and did an amazing job! I definitely recommend going to her for your next piercing.

Heather Knapp

Sean is amazing! He took a simple picture and ran with it. I absolutely love my baby Yoda. I will never go to anyone else for my tattoos! The whole experience and atmosphere is awesome. I'm already thinking of my next one.

Erin Finney

I had scars on my left arm that I knew I wanted covered up. Once I realized the perfect tattoo to close a chapter in my life and serve as a new beginning, I knew I wanted Shadow to do it. I told him what I wanted and it couldn't have turned out better! The kicker was his mentality and attitude. He has such a positive outlook and he treats everyone like they are family and they belong. You aren't a stranger or a nameless face. He has a gift and a big heart! People like that are a rarity in this world. You can't go wrong with him or his artistic vision. He free-handed another special tattoo for me and I can't wait to get more!!! Inkfam is a great place with good people! Tattoos are for life, the memories and who brings the art to life are just as important as the ink on our skin!! If you haven't checked them out, go!! You won't be disappointed!!

Ashley Smith

Definitely not your average tattoo shop. A full spectrum of custom artwork,amazing artist, and literally the most welcoming business in Indy! Every piece of art is infused with the signature positivity of the owner and artist Shadow and is represented within his extended “family” of artists. Definitely the place to go for any tattooing and piercings needs!

Jillian Howard

I recently had a tattoo done by Shadow and I was more than pleased with the experience. From the carefully planned design, to the tattoo process and aftercare instructions, everything was excellent. Shadow was very thorough, detail-oriented, and professional. The tattoo shop itself was very clean, friendly, and welcoming to their guests. I highly recommend giving them a visit!

nick warren

It is really hard to put into words how great this place actually is, from the atmosphere, to the quality of work, to the arrists themselves. It is through and through the best tattooing experience you can possibly ask for. Before I decided to actually go through and get the tattoo I had been putting together and getting it just how I wanted it, I wanted to go and meet with the artist I had been talking with about doing it [Shadow] and as soon as I met with him I knew that he was going to be able to bring my idea to life.

Amber Pearce

I love what they do for the children during the Holiday Season! Toys 4 Tats is a wonderful thing Inkfam does! Also I love the work they do!

Chelsea Costello

This place is the best! Full of positive energy and tons of beautiful art. Shadow did my tattoo and he is an inspirational artist who has a beautiful eye for freehand art! I couldn't be happier with my experience!! Would recommend to anyone.

Drew Walls

Shadow is the best! I’ve gone to him for most of my work and he makes me feel at home every time! Great experience and great artwork!!

Dominique Woods

Dope shop. Very customer oriented. I’ve been getting tattooed by Shadow for 7 years and Won’t go to anybody else. Such a laid back and ‘cool’ place to get a tattoo. The environment is awesome. I would recommend all of the artists here 10x more than anywhere else in Indianapolis. Best tattoo shop in Indy!!!

Sarah Lewis

The shop is a beautiful shop! Super clean, super understanding, and super helpful! Shadow does a wonderful job of creating beautiful art and tattoos! The amount of care that goes into the shop, the art, and the craft is unmatchable!! You are in good hands whenever you walk in the door! You will leave happier and more complete 😊 …

Harley Quinn

The annual toys for tats drive is amazing. These artists are cutting the price for their awesome art in HALF in exchange for donations for homeless/needy children. Getting a great deal and giving to an amazing cause at the same time is great. 100% recommend to anyone.

Sylvia Boling

Absolutely amazing work. JoJo (Joe) did a wonderful job on fixing my side piece he turned what I called a black blob into a beautiful lion cub. When it comes to tattooing I've experienced someone with quite a heavy hand and and I'll say JoJo's hand was so much lighter. This shop and the people that work there are extremely clean and are easy to talk to. He was very professional but was able to carry a conversation and not make the appointment awkwardly silent. I recommend Inkfam to anyone that is considering on getting a tattoo or needs one fixed!

Terry Tucker

Definitely great experience at Inkfam. I would recommend anyone and everyone I know to them. Clean and friendly and makes you feel at home. They always seem to be doing stuff for the community. This month was their toys for tats which helps you and the kids by getting half off every 200 dollars for only a 20 dollar donation. Can't beat this shop.

Eden Pfile

The current piercer is also a nurse! She did great with my daughters piercing.

Brandon Greenberg

Best tattoo shop in Indy, hands down! Great artists with an exceptional eye for detail. They take the time to do it right and never make you feel rushed. I have three large scale pieces from this shop and they are all amazing. I highly recommend InkFam!!!

Linda Morris

I can NOT brag enough about this shop. Like for real, obsessed with their work. Sean K is literally a master a detail and has such an eye for art. Every idea I've had he took and RAN with it. Sean did my Trex skull and a got tattoo. And DK.... Is also so so so good. He was insanely fast and his work is so GOOD 😱. He did my wolf on my thigh.

Meggan Holstein

I LOVE this shop. It’s always a happy and positive invironment. I would stay there all day just to look at the art he has there and watch him do tattoos. My boyfriend and I drove 2 hours just to go there so I could meet him because my boyfriend already met him. I promise you, your experience there will be the best one you will ever have. I highly recommend him.

Jacqueline Basey

Sean did my very first tattoo tonight. Awesome experience! He was very attentive to how I was feeling throughout the whole process. I am so happy with the custom tattoo he did! And inkfam is a very clean, professional shop.

Gabrielle Bessler

Such a professional shop and artists. You always walk out with exactly what you want, if not MORE THAN YOU ASKED. ShadowInk is the BEST and deserves an award for his artistic excellence. Love them like family, so excited to come back and send them more business!!!

Brandi Krauth

This is by my favorite place to be. Not just for the amazing artwork, not just spending time with the wonderful Shadow, but because it's like home. You're comfortable when you walk in that door. I've known shadow for a long time and nobody has the passion or talent that he does. Not to mention besides the AMAZING tattoos.. he has done so much for the city using his inkfam movement. Homeless drive, toys for kids.. so much! 100% recommend them over and over again.

Nathan Howe

The owner is one of the most skilled artists I’ve met, a true master of his craft. Their whole staff is friendly and accommodating. Would highly recommend if you’re looking for expert quality tattoos and piercings!

Alyssa Bybee

The guys at InkFam are incredible! I’ve been in multiple times and every time the experience has been wonderful. The toys for tats program is OUTSTANDING! What a great cause and love to see their continued success! Thank you so much! Absolutely will be back soon!

Shadow Inkone

This is the best shop on earth! And they support their clients and the community so much!

Janistaria Wilson

Seen the tattoo that I am getting shared through FB and that made me come in. From the time I came in I got all the knowledge I needed to make a good decision on what I really wanted and where to place it so that it would encompass everything I wanted. Coming to get the tattoo not only was everything cleaned and wiped down but we went over everything before proceeding with the tattoo. My tattoo placement is right on my left breast and my tattoo artist Tank never once made it awkward or make me feel uncomfortable. I can’t wait to come add more n more work through this shop. I won’t be going anywhere else.

My daughter wanted her ears pierced I couldn't think of any better place to take her. She was scared at first but they made her feel like she didn't have anything to worry about. They made her first piercing something that she will never forget. Keep up the greak work guys!.!

Alicia vickers

I got my daith piercing here by Ashley a month or so ago and it’s perfect! So cute and healing perfect and she’s such a sweetheart! Hubby and I both follow shadow on social media and love the positive energy he puts out and how much he helps the community and his work is incredible.

Jessica Eagle

Got my tattoo done by Jojo! He did amazing I am so excited and happy with my new tat! Was patient and explained everything from start to finish and was very professional! Defintily would recommend to anyone before going any where else!!

Beth Conley

JoJo is amazing! Shadow is brilliant. And Brittany is great. An amazing family that really knows their craft!! JoJo is my guy, hands down and each one of these folks have created a professional, caring business that compares to none in safety, cleanliness and art. Worth way more than they charge!!

TRINE

What can I say? I don’t have any tattoos, but these ones kinda make me question why I don’t. This is some of the coolest, colorful, and well drawn art that must take time and patience to create. I hear the staff is super positive and welcoming as well. All I know is that if I ever did get a tattoo, I would definitely go Inkfam, for real.

Courtney Luttrell

Going into this tattoo shop is literally like being with family. Even if I dont know anyone making coversation with everyone there is so easy. Shadow is super nice and is always doing way more than tattoos, but takes part in other artisitic ventures to continously grow. He has a one of a kind style that would complement anyones taste and I have seen nothing but impecable work from this man.He looks out for the community as well and that I appreciate the most about who he is and the shops mission. Definitely a place to look into when looking for work.

Kay May

I have NEVER come across a shop as amazing as this one!! The vibes you get when you walk in the shop just make you feel at home and like you’re apart of the family!! I have had 15 piercings in my life, and everyone one was done by different piercers, except my last 3! **Smashley** aka Ashley, is by far the BEST piercer in the universe!! She made me feel so so loved during the whole process!! She walks you through the locations of the piercing, the after care, and best yet, she stays in touch well after getting them done to ensure her work was done correctly!! I love this girl and feel like she is my long lost sister!! HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!! If you see her, you won’t regret it!! Shadow has done such a great job with the shop and all the people he has let become apart of his family!! And of course, his artwork is beyond beautiful!! This shop just touches souls man!!!!! You won’t regret visiting here no matter what it’s for! Piercings! Tatts! And inkfam merch oh myyyyyyyy!! CHECK EM OUT!!!!!!

David Baker

This is in my opinion is the best shop in Indianapolis. Shadow or Ashley will greet you at the door as soon as you enter. Very friendly people. Very clean, Ill never go to another tattoo and piercings shop. Very comfortable. Good people, good vibez.

Alanna Benitez

Shadow is a positive person and takes time to talk with his clients. He makes everyone feel like part of the InkFam and his art is unlike anyone's I've ever seen, its unique and from his heart. I love his work and his positive energy. Shadow is one of a kind. He's not only a tattoo artist, but he does lots of work in the community. He does classes for the children at the children's bureau to help give them something to help them be positive no matter what their situation is and does "Toys for Tats" during the holidays and has donation drives throughout the year to give back to those in need. Shadow stands out not just for his work as a tattoo artist but for who he is as a person. He's the real deal. And I love the way he makes time for his nephews and nieces and that he always tells them he loves them and he plays with them. He's all heart and don't let his success go to his head. Like I said he's the real deal.

Jaime Roadruck

Sean was amazing. I had sent him some references to what I wanted my piece to be and the story with it. He was able to capture all that I wanted. Super professional and the rest of the staff was just as awesome. I love what they do for the area kids as well.

Angela Carpenter

I have always been very self-conscious with a 16 inch scar I got from breaking my arm several years ago. I have always wanted to get a tattoo to cover it. I found the most amazing person to do this at Inkfam. Shadowink is the man! The whole team there is fabulous. You feel like family when you walk into their doors! If you are looking for great artists I highly recommend Inkfam!

Brice Steeb

Absolutely perfect outcome. Shadow not only makes the artwork do what you want it to, he takes the time to understand why you want it, and the purpose behind the art. It’s a tattoo parlor, but offers so much more than just about getting a tattoo...it’s the full experience. Thank you to Shadow and all that his team does!

Rachel Moore

Best place for tattoos! I have loved every tattoo I have received from Shadow at Inkfam! Such positive energy evetytime you go in! Also, Ashley the piercer is such a sweetheart! I have loved every piece of jewlery I have bought!

Carrie Hudson

Shadow was great!! He worked hard and continuously to make sure I got the art I wanted. He was very conversation and friendly. I love this art and I can’t wait to show it off to everyone! Highly recommend!!

Veronica Peek

Jojo did an awesome job. He did a memorial tattoo for my Grandfather and it turned out wonderful. I am excited to know that I have found a regular artist. He has more work in the future to do on me including cover ups. Thank you Jojo...

britt Garner

Cloie is amazing...puts you right at ease, confident in her skills...had my Daith pierced and loves re-pierced..it looks amazing...well done Cloie!!! Highly recommend her!!!

Jacqueline Sobotka

WOW! Where do I even start!?!?! Getting your first tattoo can be exciting, scary and liberating all at the same time. When you start your tattoo journey and have no clue of what to expect working with a tattoo artist it can be scary. You have no clue if who you are working with is "the norm". I went to another tattoo shop searching for a shoulder piece and was really disappointed with my entire process. I had very little communication, was told that he wasn't going to do what I wanted but would do something close with he creative flare and what I ended up with had NO FLOW with the curvature of my arm. After meeting shadow I WAS BLOWN away at his professionalism, passion for art, the A to Z explanations of the entire process and the transformation thus far. You will not be disappointed if you can get in with shadow! He is in such high demand that it is hella hard to get in with him so if you can set an appointment.... DO IT!!! I saw 3 of the other artists while I was in there for 10 hours getting my tattoo and I was REALLY impressed with all of them. One of the guys did a realistic portrait, another did a full back piece of angel wings and the lady artist did an epic body piece that flowed really well with the girls body. GO check them out!

JeffandDebbie Buchanan

Fantastic shop all the guys are great. Great artists will did a Celtic knot on my arm and it is by far my best piece. The toy drive is great and everyone should support all they are doing. Thanks again. JJ

Sean Johnson

So before I got my third tattoo, I wanted to try a new place. I looked online at several places and landed on Ink Fam Tattoo. Not knowing anything about their reputation I went in and met Sean. Same age and name as me so I knew he was the one. We discussed pricing, design, location etc... Sean was a nice and professional guy. He told me he took a little more time and was a little cheaper per hour. I was ok with that. Then we discussed time and date for our session. Going into this I knew this would take awhile 5+ hours, my longest session yet. The day came and we talked more about design and he finished up his sketch. Me being a skinny dude and nervouse and excited, I was shaking/shivering. He offered me a heating pad to lay on to help my chest muscles relax. He went over everything in detail then we got started. Details is what Sean does very well. We talked a little on and off but I remained quiet with my eyes closed. He would ask me how I was doing and keep me updated with his progress. Our first 2 hours went well and we took a 5-10min break so my skin could rest. He said Im not going to rush this and hurt you, I appreciated that. My skin was very thin on my chest so he had to use the lowest needle speed. He knew if it went faster he'd tear my skin. I also appreciate him letting me know lol. We started talking more about general stuff/family dogs etc... which helped with the pain and time fly by. We took another break around the 4hr mark so I could stretch my legs, grab a drink etc... he was very excited how it was turning out. Keeping me informed the whole time. We finished at 1:15am (started at 7:30pm). It looked insane, so much details I was blown away! We discussed proper care of the tattoo, etc... and already starting talking about an addition to the one I just got. Sean is not just a great artist, but a friend who I'm glad I met and let his creativity and talent be a part of me forever.

Kailey Tewell

Have gotten two piercings here, they don't overprice their piercings and are super inviting unlike some tattoo/piercing parlors.

Kaitlyn Mayes

Sean Kiersztyn nailed the cross on my thigh. He turned a google image into my own unique tattoo. Super friendly and nice guy too! Will definitely be back to have Sean put some more work on me

J. Travis McDearmon

I had a great experience at Inkfam. Not only are they professional, talented artists, they also support the community. Right now they are collecting art supplies for the Children’s Bureau so that all kids can have a chance to be creative. Great cause, great people!

Jasmine Dyvig

I am in love with the space, good pricing and very professional! All of the artists are very very nice! I just loved everything about this place. Delaney is super amazing she made it quick and painless!! She is also super sweet!

Roman Basso

Great place to get ink done. Very relaxed atmosphere, great friendly guys. I will definitely come back for all my work. They are currently having a toy drive! Stop and get some toys and get a great tattoo also.

cameron woodall

I have recently been getting into tattoos and this is my first place I picked and now I am forever hooked to them. I go to Sean but everyone is amazing.

Carla Monteiro de Souza

Last March, I got my tattoo with Shadowink. The tattoo artist is very professional, understood all my needs and gave me the best tattoo possible. Exceeded my expectations. Hope I can come back soon. Thanks guys !!!

G0thcontrol

I really liked this place the piercer was so nice <33

Jacquelyn Dee Bego

Can not put into word how proud I am to wear Shadow's work on my body. His is a true artists through and through. Linework and use of colors are mind blowing. His b&w is crazy awesome too. He has a ton of knowledge on aftercare and healing. Love 2nd skin. Shop is very clean. Very professional and fun. His positive attitude is infectious. Totally worth cool spending couple hours with. He works fast and get alot of details in.

Nancy Mapes

The artist at this shop are extremely talented. Not only can they leave a WOW factor, the artists are very inspiring and uplifting. Shadow is hands down the best artist I have ever seen! He Gets 10 stars!

Justin Bird

I've moved a lot in my life and I'm new to the Indy area. I get a tattoo for everyplace I lived and Shadow has definitely given me the best tattoo I've ever had. I will definitely be going back when I find more reasons to tattoo.

Sarah Hicks

It’s that time of the year, toys for tats here at InkFam. Bring in toy/art donation for kids to receive discount off a tattoo. Getting a thigh tattoo. They are the best always making you feel comfortable and always taking great care of me.

brianna williams

Great tattoo shop and environment to be in, absolute great work. Award winning artists. Currently there’s an ongoing toy drive in order to gather up art related toys for kids who don’t have much. Highly recommend!!!!!!

Cassadi Cain

If I could give Shadow 100 stars I would! I’ll definitely never let anybody else tattoo me.. his work is amazing and I promise you won’t regret it!!! #inkfamforlife

Kylie Baughman

Best tattoo shop around Indy! Not only are all the artists incredible but the piercer is amazingly talented as well! I always send every one there for their tattoo/piercing needs, definitely check them out!

kyle king

JoJo started a piece for me in November, and finished it last month. I couldn't be happier with how it has turned out. JoJo took the time to listen to what I wanted, and created a piece for me that was everything I could ask for, and then more. I was blown away by the work in his portfolio, and had a blast talking with him as he worked on my arm. As a shop, InkFam is clean and the atmosphere is awesome. I was thoroughly impressed with the professionalism and attention to detail that InkFam has with their business. I've been tattooed in 3 other shops, two here in Indy, and one in Savannah, and InkFam, by far, has been the most aesthetically pleasing and welcoming shop that I've been in to date. Shadow, the owner, has networked well within the Indianapolis community, and it's amazing to see an artist of his caliber sharing his talents and giving back to his community through agencies such as The Children's Bureau. InkFam heavily promoted a toy drive leading up to Christmas wherein they asked for toys, but primarily art supplies, to provide as gifts to children who receive services from the Children's Bureau. I'm a social worker by profession, and it warms my heart to know that others want to give back in such a selfless way. Too often, we hear of the negative things happening in our community, and we don't hear about the positives. InkFam should be recognized for this amazing feat, and I respect all of the artists in the shop not only for their artistic skills, but also for their large hearts as well. InkFam and JoJo have definitely earned my future business.

Tiffany

This is going to be my third Toys for Tats ink experience. Will did my first two tattoos. Now my friend and I are getting matching thigh tattoos by Jojo. I'm glad to help out the kiddos and get a tattoo for half price. 😍 …

Amy Sims

Back up at InkFam to get the right side of my neck done. I was very satisfied with my visit the first time that I came back to see the guys, get another tattoo and most importantly donate toys for their Toys for Tats. I highly recommend InkFam to anyone looking for a new tattoo.

Evan McMahon

Here seeing JoJo for an update to my Indiana flag tattoo. I love how these guys give back to the coomunity through their Toys For Tots gift drive. The folks at Inkfam on Emmerson are the ONLY tattoo and piercing artists that my extended family trusts with our body work. There's still time for you to take advantage of their Toys For Tots gift drive discount, but you better book now before they fill up.

Andy Parmerlee

Back for toys for tats here at InkFam. Bring in $20 art donation for kids to receive discount off a tat. Back to see JoJo again and getting work done on a sleeve. This is my second tattoo at Inkfam and they have taken great care of me.

Robert Harden

Seriously such an amazing shop! Tank did my piercings and I could not be happier! He talked me through it and made me feel so comfortable! Highly recommend!

Alexander Parra

I highly recommend InkFam to go get your tattoo and piercings. It’s a great shop the people are friendly and great to talk to. They are doing a toy drive donation for the kids and I like how they are giving back to the kids. I support that and I appreciate seeing people giving back to the kids.

Kiarra Funnell

They were so nice and down to earth. The customer service is great. The best experience I’ve had getting a piercing! I would definitely recommend to anyone who is considering getting a piercing. I will be coming back in the near future for my next piercing!

brooklynn

The people are nice i have never had a person pierces so good before and if i git another piercing i am going to ink fam

Haley Writt

Love all the people at the shop. Shadow has done all 4 of my tattoos and I will continue to go back to him for any more work I decide to get. Also got a piercing from Ashley and love it. Highly recommend going to the shop. Very professional but laid back atmosphere with a lot of great people who genuinely care about their clients.

Scott Howe

Been here multiple times. It’s the only place I trust. Smashley is an amazing piercer. Jojo is an amazing artist and of course Shadow is a beast. Friendliest staff around!!!

justin Quinn

This place is much more than a tattoo shop its like a family. The first time i walked in the noticed my wife did not have her new tattoo covered so they covered it for her when most places would look past it. I have found my tattoo shop i will be coming back to get more.

Brandy “Violet_love15” D

Went today to get a memorial piece for my fur baby done by Joe!!.., saving $ for full arm sleeve & to have one fixed that another shop left f***up ... But nothing but love & respect to Shadow, Joe & Ashely. From the Snapchats, Instagram, Facebook, & website.. Plus always paying it forward in the world we live in, could be more humble! More love is needed in this world especially to the less fortunate.. I couldn't be happier to have any artist there do my upcoming work! #MadeRespectToTheWholeTeam .. I couldn't be happier with my piece I got done today! 💖💕

Nichole Brawner

What’s there to say!??? The ink speaks for itself! I met Shadow at an ink convention 5 years ago in Long Beach, Ca. (Travis Barkers InkFest) - I saw his work in his booth and instantly fell in love and KNEW he had to do a piece on me! We stayed in talks for 2 years before I finally flew myself from California all the way to Indy to his shop!!! Not only have I gained the most epic piece on my body but I’ve gained a new friend!!! Praise to Shadow and his shop, and the continued good vibes he emits into this universe. *to be continued.... 😎🤩 #shadowink

duccpai

They were super kind, offered both my friend and I water as we waited. I went there last year to get my nose pierced and the experience was great. The prices are definitely very affordable.

Henry Reed-Schertz

Came into InkFam looking to start my half sleeve. Had the best experience getting started. All the guys in the shop made ya laugh and made it an experience versus just getting a job done. JoJo absolutely killed the start. Cleanest lines you’ll find. Let his artistic juices flow to guide me on how we took the start.

A 1 (ElCapitan317)

One of the best tattoo shops in the city.. not juat because of the talented artists, but the atmosphere is always positive and fun!! i recommend people almost daily when someone asks where i get my work done.. INKFAM!!!!

Delanie Elizabeth

Delaney is amazing! She made me feel so comfortable from the start. We vibed the whole time and her creative mind is extraordinary! I was so happy with my tattoos. I will definitely be back soon <3

Grace Wagner

Ink fam has probably the best environment for tattoo shop that I’ve personally seen. They make you feel so welcome and comfortable. Whether you are getting a tattoo or piercing they are there to make sure this is what you want

Christopher Owens

It’s been a long time coming to get our unit’s tattoo. We could not be more happier with the results! The time spent with Sean K while he performed his artistic skill was amazing from the start. It was like we were just hanging out in the shop the whole time. Sean k is very passionate about his work. The staff here is very friendly and personable. The other artist (DK) was very interested in our work and gave valuable input. There is no other shop I recommend than INKFAM.

Miranda Monday

An absolutely amazing establishment!! Very clean and professional!! Tank tatted and pierced me!! Had an amazing conversation with Shadow as well!! Thank you guys for your AWESOMELY AMAZING everything!! Highly recommend!!

Eric Burdsall

Killer work and was a good experience! Love this start of my new sleeve can’t wait to be back in the shop!

Haley Allen

Great place family friendly people there was the best we would highly recommend this company to everyone and the work they do is so outstanding thanks jojo and the toy drive they do is so amazing

Show Heatt

By far the best tattoo shop I've been too. The atmosphere is unlike other tattoo shops and makes you feel welcome and comfortable. Especially when being tattooed. The time flies by because the artists actually engage in conversation. And did I mention the incredible artwork done by the artists. 11/10 would recommend to anyone!!

Raylee Gray

Absolutely love my thigh piece from Delaney! Highly recommend Inkfam! It’s a very clean, precessional and comfortable tattoo shop. I will be back!

NotJohn

Sean was so amazing. Fantastic artist. Outstanding atmosphere. Clean and efficient workspace. Couldn't recommend better!

paige Flegel

So I had Sean do a tattoo of mine that was just a touch up and decided to revamp it and make it look brand new ! It made me feel good knowing I had a masterpiece on my arm I fell in love . He is a very professional artists and I’m so glad I met him personally . Go to him for all your tattoo needs ☺️

Michael Norton

So after intentionally waiting a decade into adulthood to get ink, I discovered Shadow's work on Instagram. I addition to being tattoo artist Numero Uno, he is the realest mofo out there. He puts in the work to make each piece phenomenal and walks each client through the process with patience and wisdom. Masterful work from a master of his craft!

John

Sean K absolutely killed this piece...From the design, to the chair experience including post care direction, Sean was a true professional. Tattoos are one thing, but ART is another, will most definitely be back!

brittani willis

Brittany is an amazing artist! She is working on a memorial side piece for my boyfriend (im writing this since he's not very tech savy) and we can not wait to be back to get it completely finished! She was able to incorporate what we had in mind and turn it into literally a masterpiece!!!

Trish Buckley

Clean shop, friendly artists! Tank very patient and the tattoo is exactly what I wanted. The shop is collecting toys for a toy drive...4 years strong! Highly recommend!

Abby Cole

Shawn was amazing!! So nice & walked us through the whole process. His station was clean and the detail to my friend’s tattoo was amazing!

Tiffany Hampton

Amazing place! Owner Shadow and staff are just awesome, only place I will ever go for a tattoo or piercing.

Sean Taflinger

Definitely one of the best tattoo artist in this area, the price is decent for this level of work. Super quality work

Great tattoo shop. Super friendly and attentive. They also have an awesome toy drive going! Made sure I was 100% happy with my design.

Amanda

Shadow is an excellent artist and truly meant to be doing what he does. He is calm, cool, and collective. Really listens to what the client wants. A great entrepreneur. Keep doing what you do. Great work!

Jenna haldeman

Delaney is a great artist and I highly recommend this place for tattoos. Entire staff is awesome.

Brian Willoughby

Shadow has done all of my art for years! His shop is top notch and very clean. There is no one else I would trust with my tattoos!

Christopher Nickerson

Sean’s an amazing artist and very friendly. Went above and beyond for my piece and did the small details that really makes it pop.

Lisa Karr

Went to Brittany for a cover up and she rocked it! I've been so worried about getting this piece covered and finding someone that is talented enough to do it, but she Is amazingly talented! I would definitely recommend this shop and any of the artists.

Etoilé

Yoni did my industrial piercing and she was super sweet and informative! Overall I had a great experience and it was a fun atmosphere. I love my new piercing and it's healing well!

Nichole Black

Shadow is a man of many great talents. His artistic abilities are mind blowing and something not seen by many artists these days. I have always gone into his shop, got what I needed, and then some. Please if you trust someone to do art work on your body....go see Shadow. This man is in high demand AND FOR A REASON!!! #BOSS #InkFam #HeGetsItDone

Kristen McFarland

Shout to JOJO! He hooks my Dad and I up every time! He produces quality work & the tattoos always come out flawlessly!! Much better Home here at InkFam in BeechGrove!

kaylin lindsey

My tattoo turned out great thanks to dk I will for sure be coming back and getting more work done!

Kelli Sipress

One of the most professional shops I've ever been to. I appreciate that you can be private in your own room and no one can see in, if you want it that way. Great from the seating area to bathroom lol. Plus, it has Zak (DK), the best around, periodt. Thanks for the awesome experience guys!

Raymond Sample

Awesome tattoos, really clean/professional staff and tattoo shop. They are cureently doing a toys for tots drive so you can also get a discount just for helping out with the toy drive.

Came in for the Toy Drive and was so amazed at how many toys were here! This is by far the best charity I’ve seen! Tank was my artist and he has been awesome! Thanks everyone there!

Rosie Frushon

I just got my first InkFam piece last night. I don't even know where to begin to describe my experience. My entire experience has been beyond awesome! From the very first time I presented Sean with my idea, he took it and ran with it! He is a true artist who definitely loves what he does! I knew the second I met him that he was the right one! Sean is very professional and talented, as well as extremely helpful and caring. He was very clear on after care instructions to ensure my piece heals properly. It's obvious he takes pride in his work & his work is above incredible! The shop is very clean, and everyone there is extremely friendly & professional. They all made me feel very welcome and comfortable. I just can't say enough about InkFam and everyone there! I would recommend InkFam to anyone! (And definitely will!) Everyone there is an incredible talent! You won't be disappointed! A very big "Thank you" to Sean for making my piece even better than anything I could've imagined! It is completely Perfect!

Aimie Little

Such an awesome experience. Sean is wonderful and went above and beyond! Couldn't be happier. Thanks again.

Lauren Spainhower

Absolutely love how generous this shop is!! They’re collecting toys for under privileged kids in return for discounted tattoos, the shop is packed full of toys. Not to mention how talented everyone here is!

Nasreen McDowell

Sean Kiersztyn is a brilliant tattoo artist who makes you feel comfortable and extra special. He took an idea I had and completely blew it out of the water! He makes sure he does everything perfectly - custom artwork, placement, setup, tattooing, and after care. I highly recommend Sean as he is a true professional who will go above and beyond your expectations. All of his work is gorgeous and he uses top of the line ink and needles. I am already planning to go back for some other work. If you are reading this, don’t bother with any other place. Sean and Shadow are leading the industry in Indiana.

Laura Alger

Jojo did an amazing job on my tattoo. The employees and environment were fantastic! Can't wait to go back for more work!

Pat Davis

Awesome place with professional people! I would recommend them to anyone! They are promoting a toy drive for toys for tots so come down and donate for a good cause. The facility is second to none!

Jazmine Lindsay

Yoni (the piercer) is amazing! She was so kind and let our session go at my pace. Definitely coming back and will definitely recommend her to anyone!

Shannon Keating

Sean is FANTASTIC! I asked for a tattoo to memorialize my dog, I thought his paw print or silhouette. But Sean made a custom design that blew my mind. I am moved by how much care and passion he put into the design. The detail he was able to work into my little dogs face is stunning. I had a great evening conversing with him while he worked on my tattoo, it turns out we have a lot in common and we both have a passion for art. I can not say enough good things about Sean, it was the best tattoo experience I have had. ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Lisa Willey

Brittany killed it! She is awesome! She took our thoughts and created a piece of art that I am so proud to wear with my daughter! Love love love!!!

Brandon Sloan

Had a session with JoJo - first session turned out awesome. Super glad I chose him and this shop. Can't wait to come back for second session.

Joseline Mendoza

Had a great experience at Inkfam tattoo,very friendly welcoming environment. Hands down Shadow is the best tattoo artist in Indiana, you can tell he's very passionate about what he does. To heal my tattoo he used SecondSkin it's pretty much an adhesive barrier that acts like your own skin. Thanks to him my tattoo healed AMAZINGLY I'm completely in love with it. Can't wait to go in for more ink!!

Andrea Tennison

Outstanding artists, great vibe. Shadowink owner and the best tattoo artist in the state. Look at his art gallery!

Breanne Hommel

Had a great experience here for my first tattoo! Great staff and very admirable work they do for toys for tots!

Marrina Vannarath

Brittany is amazing! She has an amazing personality and made me feel confidant in what she was doing! I highly suggest booking with her!

Kimberly Fawbush

I stopped in to get my ears pierced and get help fixing an existing cartilage piercing. Everyone here was so nice, and my piercer was excellent. I love my piercings and am grateful he was able to help get some hoops back into piercings I had to take out for an MRI. The existing piercing was pretty painful, but his humor and kind words helped me relax. I definitely recommend this shop.

Anthony Whitlow

Best staff around. Fantastic designs and immaculate artwork. If you’re going to get a tattoo, Inkfam is the way to go!!

Love the atmosphere and I always reccoemned to friends/strangers about this tattoo shop! On a scale of 1-10 this shop is 100!!!!

Kk1son

Shadow is such a talented artist and caring man. Going to InkFam is a very pleasant experience. Very clean and professional.

Stephanie Goddard

There is not enough space or time to express my thoughts and feelings about Shadow and his awesome shop. Clean positive energy and true caring and genuine people as soon as you walk through his doors. Not only is he the best around but his huge heart means so much. What you think you will come out with will be a million times better than ever! I have total trust faith and believe in him Ashley is an amazing addition to his shop and so happy to see her also going in there and her skills for piercings hands down the best!! This crew my not be blood but they are my true FAM!!

Cadence Musen

Delaney did a amazing job , 10/10 would recommend!! Definitely book with her ASAP.

Melissa Reynolds

Inkfam is a very welcoming, relaxing environment. Owner Shadowink is very personable and makes every moment of your time there comfortable. The staff are all very knowledgeable and friendly. The artists all create a piece of art you will be proud to show off forever. I would recommend Inkfam to anybody wanting a custom, one of a kind, experience and tattoo. You will not be let down. You can also purchase clothing and paintings and browse thru books of artwork and pictures while you wait. #1 for piercings and tattoos!

Jacob Bradley

Sean is a great arstist and will definitely take care of you and your body.

Jack Fish

This place is the shiz man, shadow and his crew are always in upbeat positive moods and looking to make their customers happy. Not to mention all the bad ass art displayed on the walls!!!

Sarah Luellen

I have an amazing piece of art on my body thanks to Shadow

Brandy Tipton

Excellent art work and an all around good vibe from the shop/artists.

Brandy Williams

I can’t give enough stars for Inkfam Tattoo! The vibe when you come in is out of this world! Jojo has been doing my ink for a long time now and I recommend all of my friends and family to come see him. But don’t let that discourage you if he’s busy, Shadow is badass and Tank KILLS it too. In November and December the shop does a Toys for Tats drive. I couldn’t ask for a better time to come get ink and you should too!!!

Josh Smith

Best piercer in town...And probably the most gifted artist in the state

Matt Tucher

InkFam Tattoo is a very professional and friendly business. The shop is clean, the staff makes you feel welcome and the tattoos/piercings are of high quality. Shadow tattooed my wife and it left us speechless as the art unfolded. I believe she is now addicted and won't go to anyone else. She later went back and got a piercing by Ashley and I know for a fact it won't be her last. I recommed this shop for anyone without question. My wife and I will definitely be back :)

Briana Eastwood

Ashley pierced my nose today. Amazing and fast. Clean space and down to earth atmosphere. Highly recommend

Tommy McDowell

I wanted a tattoo that my uncle, who raised me, had on his arm. He got the tattoo for $5 in California in 1958ish after graduating from boot camp for the Navy. I told Sean Kierstan that I wanted basically the same tattoo. I told him to think of it as restoring an old car. I wanted it true to it’s roots but what it should look like in 2020. Let me just say, Sean blew me away with his design and even more so with his execution. I also had my Aunt write my uncles name on a piece of paper for Sean to add to the tattoo. It literally looks like she tattooed it on me. Sean is an insanely talented tatto artist. Perhaps even more important, he is extremely passionate about his art and bringing your vision to life. His attention to detail is second to none. I cannot recommend Sean enough. I can’t wait to get more work done by him.

Fred Wagner
