I’m a repeat customer of Parker’s and will continue to be. She and Maria both are wonderful people. They are kind, respectful, fun, sweet and sooo talented and just overall make the tattoo experience so amazing. I couldn’t be happier with my body art. And as a bonus, the studio is so beautiful and calming. ❤️
Her assistant Danielle has been great with getting me scheduled and following up as well.

Such a lovely and welcoming studio! Parker is such an amazing artist and made sure that I was comfortable and relaxed for the whole session. She put so much thought and care into the piece, don’t think I can get a tattoo anywhere else! :)

If you've never been tattooed, this will be the best first experience you could have! And if you've been tattooed, you'll wonder why you've been doing it with anyone other than these people! The most welcoming, accommodating, patient and kind tattoo artist in the world- Parker brought my dream to life and was super flexible with design elements that I wanted to change. And I got to watch Harry Potter while being tattooed!I couldn't be happier!

I was tattooed here a few months ago, and even thought they preach being a safe space, did not feel that. I got a small tattoo that i’m okay about, but I should’ve looked into Parker’s page a bit more to realize the shop is LGB friendly, but not exclusively trans friendly. I’m fine if people like Harry Potter, but it would probably be smart to not gush about it to your trans clients who may or may not be aware of how awful the writer of the serious is. Like, maybe denounce JK even a little bit knowing how harmful to the trans community she is? Food for thought, Midnight tattoo but specifically Parker.

Parker and Maria are amazing artists and fantastic people. I have had two arm pieces done by Parker, and one done by Maria, and I can't wait to hopefully get more! I gave them both creative freedom in crafting a design that they were excited about doing, and it turned out so amazing. Despite me giving them complete and total creative freedom, both artists were communicative and thorough in making sure that the design they came up with was one I would want to wear on my body forever. They are both so sweet, caring, and talented. Coming from somebody also in the body modification industry, I also really appreciate the heavy emphasis that Midnight Tattoo places on client consent and the work that they have done on making the tattoo experience comfortable and less scary. I literally have nothing but good things to say about Midnight Tattoo, they are so so so so wonderful. Thank you guys!!!

Truly an amazing experience from booking/scheduling all the way to the tattoo it's self. I booked with Parker and truly loved her flexibility with making sure that my stencil was exactly how I wanted. Parker has a gentle hand with tattooing, wasn't painful at all. Tattoo was done timely and beautifully. In every action there was lots of communication and I felt very comfortable.
Everything was super clean and the studio takes covid safety very seriously which made me feel comfortable booking with them.

I can’t say enough good things about Maria and Parker, and about Midnight as a studio. I’ve been tattooed by Maria four times since September, which speaks to how comfortable I feel there and how much I love her work (two of the tattoos were painful spots, my sternum and my hip, but Maria made them go by so quickly with her easygoing attitude and fun chatter). The studio space is bright and clean, the music is always super on point, and everything about it is relaxing and inviting. Both Parker and Maria are kind, patient, funny and they make the experience of getting tattooed 10x more fun. They do everything they can to make people feel safe and comfortable - you can bring snacks, blankets, and Parker has a setup so clients can watch Harry Potter! I feel like I never want to get tattooed anywhere else now, so 100/10 would recommend getting tattooed by either (or both!) of these amazing women.

It’s been a minute since I’ve gotten some ink and definitely was not disappointed with Midnight Tattoo!
Parker was my artist and was one of the most professional people I’ve met in this type of setting/line of work. I’ve already gotten a few compliments on my tattoo she did and will most definitely be getting more work done from her. It’s very obvious Parker cares about her clientele not just through the product she produces but the conversation we had along with a thoughtful gift she included since it was my birthday :-).
Parker’s studio is a very clean, well managed location as well. The protocols put in place shows they uphold and maintain a safe environment! I would recommend Parker to anyone who’s looking to get some ink done in the Portland area.
Thank you for a fantastic, safe experience!

I went to Parker for a tattoo I had wanted for a long time; a koi & cherry blossoms. Parker exceeded my expectations and created a beautiful piece; I get compliments on it all the time and even my tattoo-hating mother likes it!
The studio is clean, well-lit and welcoming and there were many COVID safety precautions in place so everyone could stay safe.
Parker was professional and easy to work with; the actual tattooing was relatively low-pain and I even started dozing off!
I will never go anywhere else for my future ink!

Parker has done two beautiful custom pieces for me so far and I hope to go back to her soon! She is professional, easy to get ahold of and an amazing artist. The studio she works out of is clean, aesthetically pleasing to be in and extremely quiet so getting tattooed is a wonderful experience. Any time people compliment my tattoos I make sure to recommend them to her :)
