Markus Cuff is perhaps the most highly respected and visible photographer in the tattoo world. For over 15 years, Cuff has documented the tattoo culture through out the United States and Pacific Islands. He is one of two principal contributing photographers at Tattoo Magazine and it’s related publication Tattoo Flash, as well as producer of many magazine specials. He was the single largest contributor to the Rolling Stone Book, Tattoo Nation, maybe because of his ease and access to Rock’s royalty: Markus was the original drummer for Emmylou Harris and the cult band The Textones.
