Restoration Tattoo was founded by Gabe and Michella Tenneson as a shared extension of their belief that restoration deserves the same care, intention, and respect as any other deeply personal transformation. Gabe is a master tattooer whose work is grounded in realism, precision, and an exceptional sensitivity to the human form. His approach honors the body as a living work of art, with each tattoo designed to integrate seamlessly, restore balance, and respect what the body has carried.
Michella brings clinical training, trauma-informed care, and a whole-person healing perspective to the work. She holds a Master’s degree in School Counseling and is a licensed professional tattooer currently completing advanced apprenticeship training under Gabe, with a focus on restorative and areola tattooing. Together, their work is rooted in dignity, trust, and compassionate presence, offering care that honors the whole person
