A tattoo model is a person who showcases tattoos. Tattoo models are sought out to be photographed, and they often work with photographers to create visually stunning images. In many cases, the tattoos themselves are the focus of the photo, and the model often plays a minimal role in the image-making process. In some cases, tattoo models may have a more active role in the production, such as with live body painting events or being filmed for a movie. Tattoo models come in all shapes and sizes, and they may have all sorts of tattoos, from small and simple to large and intricate designs.
