I post a lot of photography, but graphic design is actually what led me here in the first place. Design came before the camera, and now I’m lucky enough to do both. Branding and logo work have always been one of my favorite parts of the process. Building a visual identity from nothing and finding the right look for a campaign, brand or promo is always a fun challenge.

This logo was created for “Win Bally’s $1 Million” casino promotion, which will run for two months instead of the usual one. I wanted the design to pull from visual elements associated with money and high-stakes gaming, while keeping the palette monochromatic to reinforce that theme without overcomplicating it. The goal was to create something bold, recognizable and promotional while still feeling polished and cohesive. This design will be used on a large kiosk for the game, billboards and digital screens.

Opened in 1829, Eastern State Penitentiary was designed around total solitary confinement.

Each cell had a skylight, God’s light, intended to inspire penitence. What began as progressive quickly became something far more complicated.

Some people are born into softness. Others learn to make spectacle out of survival.

Destiny doesn’t flinch. Not from the weight of expectation, not from the sting of being watched and certainly not from the sharp edge of what most would turn away from. A mousetrap pressed to her tongue tension, risk, control. A moment that lives between pain and power.

In the world of sideshow, the line between vulnerability and strength disappears. What looks dangerous becomes deliberate. What feels impossible becomes performance.

She’s forging her own path, on her own terms. Focused, capable & driven in a way that doesn’t ask for permission.

This piece is about more than shock. It’s about ownership. About choosing to hold the thing that could hurt you and making it yours.

May belongs to Destiny, and she’s only getting started.

This final portrait closes out a “Death to Your 20s” session. Moving from light, playful celebration into something darker, more intentional and a little more raw. What started in soft whites and brightness shifts into a space of release and transformation.

Here, you hold both sides, the goodbye and the becoming. Honoring who you were while fully stepping into who you are now. It’s bold, a little haunting and completely unapologetic. Exactly what this next chapter should be. Welcome to your 30’s Brittney.

I’ve been holding onto this portrait of Ruben for a while. The way his hat is lifted just enough to reveal his eyes, there’s a quiet intensity there.

I entered this portraittinto a competition and it didn’t place. The bar is incredibly high, but I still love this one. It feels honest, and that’s what matters most.
