Allen Gregg was born and raised in Arizona and  has been tattooing for 17 years. He specialized in black and gray realism, but can quite literally tattoo anything and everything. He is an extremely well rounded artist, and can also cover up just about any tattoo. This is the second shop he has owned, as he and his wife Abby opened it together in 2024. Allen was won countless awards for his work, is a part of a pro team, and continues to master his craft on a daily basis.

Hi I'm Abby! I have been passionate about art since I was a child, and really started to pursue it after switching my major one too many times in college. I studied studio art and design management at ASU, where I started to get a couple of small tattoos here and there.

 

I fell in love with everything about tattoos, and knew that it is what I wanted to do with my life. After school, I worked the front desk at a tattoo shop where I then became the manager. Thank goodness I worked there, because it brought me my husband Allen, and my best friend Kailyn(who also works here!) I later apprenticed under my husband, and a few years later we decided to open Iron & Ivy Ink together.

I tend to work in a stipple shading blackwork style, and love doing any tattoos that are spooky, macabre, or Halloween related. I also love doing stuff that is super feminine and floral.I guess that is my two personalities showing(I'm a gemini). I also can't forget that I love tattooing anything and everything bookish. I have been tattooing for five years now, and love having the opportunity to grow each and every day. 

 

In my free time, my favorite thing to do is spend time with my family. Allen and I have two amazing children, Jackson and Salem. I am also and avid reader and baker!

 

I hope to see you in my chair and tattoo you soon!

Hi I’m Shelby! I’m 26, a libra, and I’ve been tattooing since 2022! I specialize in illustrative blackwork, but I also enjoy working with color, american traditional, and realism. Some of my favorite things to tattoo are all things flora/fauna/fruit, large-scale script work, and lady faces. I also love getting creative with any whimsy or surreal concepts!

I’ve been passionate about art since I was a kid, specifically drawing and eventually oil painting. I took an interest in tattoo culture around middle school and have wanted to become a tattoo artist since then! I studied art and socioeconomic justice at ASU for two years, and then started my tattoo journey in Northern AZ when I was 22. I completed my apprenticeship in 2024, moved to the valley the next year, and now am happy to call Iron & Ivy my home! 

I would love to tattoo you — email or dm me!

Hi I’m Erin! I’m 27, an Aquarius, and Ive been tattooing for almost three years now. Illustrative black and grey is my favorite style, I adore stippling and also enjoy dabbling in American traditional and realism! I love getting to tattoo all things nature inspired and/or creepy. Projects with themes of botanicals, skulls or anything whimsical with a morbid twist really interest me! 

 

I’ve always had a passion for drawing and painting for as long as I can remember so it’s been an honor to transfer that love into tattooing! After graduating with a Bachelor of Fine Arts from ASU in 2021 I finally pursued my life long dream of becoming a tattoo artist and began my apprenticeship the summer of 2022. Two years later I completed my apprenticeship and worked downtown until I found my home in Iron and Ivy!

Hi, my name is Kailyn! I’m 29 years young and I’ve been tattooing since the Spring of 2021! A little backstory on how I got here— I grew up in Louisiana, and moved to Arizona in 2019 after graduating college with my psychology degree. I realized very quickly after graduating that I wanted to use the artistic side of my brain. Then decided to get a job as a key-holder at a tattoo shop, so I could be in an artistic environment!

 

There, I grew to then become a manager, and learned a great bit of knowledge surrounding tattooing. That tattoo shop is where I met my two best friends, Abby and Allen, the owners of Iron and Ivy Ink Gallery! I’ve been working with them from the very beginning of my career and am proud to have been along for the ride of opening this beautiful shop! In my career thus far, I’ve learned that I love tattooing all things spooky, floral, geometric, and a good bit of fine line. However, I’m always interested in the challenge of bringing every idea my client has to life! In my free time, I love watching reality TV and cuddling on the couch with my German Shepherd, Sterling. You can always catch me at a concert too, any music genre slays in my realm!
