Joel or "Doc" Yager will be returning to White Tiger Tattoo at the Webster location. Joel will be working by appointment only. He can be reached by email at docyager@rochester.rr.com . If you prefer to book in person you may do so through the Greece location anytime we are open or at the Webster location Fridays from 3pm - 8pm.
Joel is accepting appointments at this time. He prefers to set up a consultation appointment first so that he can help you translate your vision into the tattoo of you dreams. Tuesdays are the best day for him for consultations.
Please let us know if you have any questions.
Also I would like to point out that Doc has some sort of camera hang-up which we are trying to get him over. So hopefully there will be more photos here soon maybe even including some that were taken this decade.
Joel “Doc” Yager
Since I began my tattoo career in the late seventies, I have always romanced the idea of tattooing near amusement parks and seaport towns which were most of my venues before coming to Rochester in the mid eighties. There is nothing like the rumbling of a Roller coaster near the ocean, the smell of the sea air, and the sound of a tattoo machine coming from a small store front in the midst of all the decadence of the boardwalk. These are all memories that I have held onto for years and still try to bring this excitement to my clients in every tattoo experience. A tattoo should be fun with a positive story that you go home with and share with friends and family for years to come adding your own parts of adventure, enduring grueling pain among pirates and sea farers alike. I work in many styles, big or small, from old Americana tattooing to traditional Japanese, from realistic to conceptually ornate. I enjoy sitting down and working out a project for a customer that I feel works well with the body and gives them a tattoo that they will be happy with. I work by appointment and would like to have a consultation with all customers prior to tattoo day. If you are from out town I can work with you over the phone and through the internet. Tattoo commissions are handled in the order that I receive them, so give me a call and I look forward to making your next tattoo adventure a brand new story for your life.
