It’s not quite “ready for prime time” yet! If you are here, it’s likely because Kevin Gourley or someone he knows has told you about it. If you have a tattoo with an interesting or meaningful story behind the tattoo and you’d like to share with us in this photographic project, read on…. Then, if you are interested in participating, contact Kevin.
Welcome to OurTattooStories.com
For thousands of years, people have used tattoos as an artistic expression of their personality, or life experience, or faith, or group membership, or a status symbol, or an adjunct to reconstructive surgery, and many more reasons. Over 39 million people in North America have tattoos. That’s roughly one in seven people.
Everyone Has a Story
Tattoos often carry deep personal meaning, and the stories behind them are almost always fascinating and worth hearing. In fact, everyone has a valuable story. Sometimes, tattoos are a unique way people express a part of theirs. We’re fortunate to hear these stories through their tattoos.
My name is Kevin Gourley. I am a pro photographer in Austin, TX (www.KevinGourley.com). I have always found people’s tattoo stories fascinating, so I decided to start this project to photograph various people and their tattoos, and offer an opportunity to tell their tattoo story. We’re doing this in the form of an online gallery (via this website) and also eventually a photo exhibit in Austin, TX.
The website is currently under construction.
We are getting closer to wrapping up this project, so the next month or so may be your last chance to participate in this project! Let Kevin know if you’re interested!
NOW, ON TO THE TATTOO STORIES…
