Jamie Goldberg is a filmmaker and photographer deeply rooted in the hardcore and punk scene. His work is filled with noise, contrast, and raw emotion. He’s drawn not only to the culture itself, but to the people at its core — their struggles, their artistry, and their inner transformations.
For nearly a decade, Jamie has been collecting tattoos from a wide range of artists and studios. And with every new session, he’s come to realize that the true value lies not in the final piece, but in the process itself — in breathing through the pain, in the silence between the buzz of the machine, in the trust built between artist and client, in the feeling of being fully accepted.
This personal insight became the foundation for a new project. Jamie now visits tattoo studios with his camera, capturing not just the tattoos, but the deeply human moments that happen during the process. His photographs offer an honest and visually powerful look at what unfolds beyond the needle — a documentary gesture of love and respect for the community he lives in and continues to be inspired by.
We invite you to explore Jamie Goldberg’s work and immerse yourself in the atmosphere of real tattoo culture — unfiltered, sincere, and grounded in deep respect for every moment.
