Publications

Showcasing my original photography and layout, this project captures the energy of the Five Points St. Patrick’s Day parade. With compelling images and content, the magazine highlights the festivities and my ability to weave narrative and visual elements seamlessly. This publication shows my skills in crafting engaging journalistic stories that bring events to life.

The goal in this series of Instagram posts for Clean Cause energy drink was to highlight the unique benefits of the drink using my skills. Aided by the help of Adobe’s Generative AI for beautiful backdrops, everything came together to ensure visual appeal and effective message delivery. These ads promote the product as well as demonstrate my ability to use digital tools to create compelling online marketing content.

Identity System Original Logo

For Blue Pizza in Columbia, South Carolina, I revitalized their logo to reflect the vibrant and unique character of the local pizza shop.

Retaining the original colors and central theme of pizza, the redesigned logo now embodies a more cohesive and appealing visual identity. This update enhances brand recognition and aligns with the atmosphere of Blue Pizza.

Interface Design

For this project, I was asked to create an app by mapping it out and designing it. NightPlanner allows users to plan their night out on the town. Users will be able to see live updates of bars and restaurants in their location. Users can check out locations wait times, headcounts, reviews, specials, and recommendations.

The app will help utilize a night out for you and your friends for fun and efficiency.

Studio Portraits

Capturing the essence of my model, Connor Rourk, this image showcases the transformative power of backlighting.

The deliberate contrast between the model, the vibrant red backdrop, and the overhead glow creates a striking poise from the model, drawing viewers into his gaze.

With the use of studio lighting, Luke Hill is bathed in vibrant hues of red and blue. The infusion of color adds a playful and innovative element to the composition.

My goal was to harness the connection between light, color, and shadow to accent the model’s features while bringing a sense of energy and creativity to the scene.

Living Off the Glass

This documentary shines light on local artist Tom Lockart. It is an insightful look into the struggle and hard work it takes to become a successful artist. One Eared Cow Glass is a local glass blowing shop in Columbia, South Carolina that Tom owns and operates.

The documentary dives into his journey and sacrifices to get to where he is today.

Getting Spurred Up

For this documentary, I interviewed Gamecock super fan, Chris Phillips, who is the creator of The Spurs Up Show. What he does online is interesting to many Gamecock athletics fans. He has built up a following among Carolina fans all by himself. I wanted to be able to interview him and show how he has created the largest and most successful non-affiliated media/content production company for the Gamecocks.
