Company Description

Exile Tattoo is a clean, modern, friendly atmosphere where custom pieces of art are created for you to wear. We are health board certified using only single use needles with hospital quality sterilization equipment.

Whether it’s full color realism, old school traditional, portraits, black and grey, new school or anything in between, our team of artists will create a tattoo that you will be proud to wear for life.

Matt Houghton, Exile’s shop owner and senior artist, has over 10 years experience in the tattoo industry and is as versatile as he is easy to look at. Matt can do it all!

Steve Smoch, while easily being the least attractive of the bunch, makes up for it by creating beautiful tattoos. In his 5th year of tattooing, Steve has a long standing relationship with art. He's worked with many mediums and enjoys working in all styles from bright and colorful to dark and scary.

Amber-Dawn Macdonald, also in her 5th year of tattooing, has received a Fine Arts Diploma from the College Of New Caledonia and has had a pencil or paintbrush in her hand since before she could walk. She is constantly looking for new artistic challenges and projects to expand her horizons.

Kaitlin Iris, the new shop apprentice had a unique style of art. No matter what the medium she loves it all. She is looking for new projects to take on.

Check out all the artist's portfolios in the album section of our photos and we look forward to meeting you and making art that will last a lifetime.
