OUR Story
Jason and Natisse met in 2012. They were instantly friends and had some amazing adventures exploring Los Angeles. Almost a year after meeting that friendship turned romantic. Bonded together through some intense life trials, they proved to be a strong team that could weather any storm. An incredible proposal followed by a magical wedding and they officially ordained their partnership in life. Jason would then offer Natisse an apprenticeship to teach her everything he knows about all forms of body modification. Honored and humbled she accepted and the next level of their union began, a partnership in body art. 2017 brought the duo to Tahoe where their journey at Needle Peak began and an incredible friendship with Corndawg, who founded Needle Peak Tattoo in 2013. As of January 2022, Jason and Natisse became the owners of the studio to carry on the Needle Peak legacy.

Natisse started tattooing in 2016. She has always been an artist and she credits her mom for that. Starting from childhood she was interested in many different art forms and continues to try as many as possible. She has always loved working with her hands to create something new and beautiful. The ability to adorn someone's body with a new work of art to make them love their body and image even more, is what she loves so much about this industry. Her own love for her piercings and tattoos, the way they have made her feel about herself and love her body more is why she wanted to get into this industry. Natisse strives to not only make art but to also give others the same feelings that body art has given her. She is very passionate about safe and well informed body modification and she enjoys educating clients on the industry. Natisse loves doing spooky and Halloween themed tattoos, as well as dotwork floral and her own pre drawn designs which you can find on her Instagram. When Natisse is not making body art,you can find her adventuring in nature with her husband, painting, drawing, crafting, or just snuggling with her fur babies.
