Hi there – I’m Ember, the owner and artist behind Saint Ember Ink.

My passion for tattoos started as a love for all things graphic design. I’ve always been drawn to precision and creativity, spending years honing my skills through technical and architectural drawing, as well as graphic design. Growing up in New Mexico, I was inspired by the bold, intricate patterns of my mom’s quilts and the natural beauty of the Southwest. Over time, that passion evolved into creating art that lives on the skin.

I created Saint Ember Ink to be more than just a tattoo studio. It’s a safe, inclusive space where we can share ideas, create something meaningful, and make lasting memories. Whether it’s your first tattoo or one of many, I’m here to help bring your vision to life.

Let’s create something beautiful together – I can’t wait to meet you!

– Ember (she/her)

What folks are saying.

  • Ember is an incredibly talented and thoughtful artist. She created a custom and deeply meaningful piece for me and took the time to communicate, collaborate, and make small tweaks to get it perfect. The vibe of her space is so comforting and inclusive a much needed contrast from most tattoo shops. I highly recommend!

  • If you’re looking for the cutest fine-line tattoos, this is the place! I have gotten two tattoos that i LOVE and will absolutely be getting more. Highly highly recommend! Ember is patient and super friendly. She will turn your tattoo dreams into a reality!

  • I came with a really specific ask for my latest tattoo. I wanted some fine details and a really exact font. Saint Ember nailed. I could not be more pleased with the process, time spent on my design/work, and final result. I'll go ahead and get all punny with this review, but if you pick Saint Ember for your next tattoo, I don't just "believe" you'll be happy, I know you will.
