At Apollo Studio, we believe in creating art that elevates the human experience: these hallowed body art traditions hold power, and we practice these as sacred art forms handed down through millennia.
We’re more than a tattoo & piercing shop; we’re a sanctuary for artists devoted to their craft, situated right where the action is in the heart of Santa Monica:

Hi, I’m Blue Mason. When I started Apollo Tattoo Studio, my aim was to build a legendary LA studio where the most serious artists can push the boundaries of what we’re all capable of. We’re well on our way there and beyond.
I stand for team growth, mutual support, and unwavering excellence. I’m looking for team members who are ready to work hard and elevate their craft. Even if you’re not in the area and you might need a hand relocating: if you’re a high-caliber artist still hungry to grow, I want to hear from you. Looking to join forces with a crew that’s earning its way to recognition among the most legendary spots in the industry?
Apply now—join us for the climb to the top.
Here’s what we’re looking for from you: as a guideline, we need people with three to five years of verified shop experience, and we need to see at least three high-quality work samples. Ideally, you’ll also have an Instagram presence where we can see more of your work.
We don’t mess around. Here’s what past clients have said about experiences with me and at the shop.
If you work here, they’ll be raving about you, too.
Located in downtown Santa Monica, Apollo Studio is the premier LA body art destination.
