The Brief
The best shot of a tattoo isn’t the polished studio one — it’s the candid one out in the world, months down the track, just living on you. That’s what we’re after.
Send us your “in the wild” photos of work done at Authentink: at the beach, out in the garden, sleeves catching the sun, halfway through a coffee, with your face or without. Don’t style it or overthink it — the more natural, the better. Shot on your iPhone? Perfectly fine. We want the real thing, not a production. Show us where your tattoos have ended up.
How we choose the winner
We’re looking at the image itself — composition, light, how naturally the tattoo reads in its setting. We’ll also be sharing entries on our socials before the winner is announced. Strong engagement is a signal we’ll take into account, but it’s not the only one. Getting posted is a good sign you’re in the running.
A note on using your images
