About Me

Design is how I turn ideas into something people can actually feel.

Hi, I’m Lanijah Jones, a Brooklyn-based creative designer with a background in new media and a growing portfolio across graphic design, mockups, visual branding, motion, and photography.

I’m drawn to work that helps people look more polished, more intentional, and more memorable. Whether I’m building a graphic, shaping a branded visual, or capturing a photo, I care about style, clarity, and the feeling the final piece leaves behind.

How I got started

My design journey started with real projects.

My interest in design grew in high school when I first started learning Photoshop. During the COVID-19 lockdown, my sister launched her business, Sweets & Treats By Lay, and I stepped in to help by creating logo ideas, mockups, and branded visuals.

That experience made everything click for me. I realized I really enjoy using design to help real people present their ideas in a stronger way.

What I focus on
  • Branding and mockups
    Visuals that help products and businesses feel more complete.
  • Graphic design
    Layouts, event graphics, and digital pieces with a clean but bold style.
  • Creative storytelling
    Work that balances visual polish with emotion, personality, and atmosphere.
Creative direction

I’m still growing, but the vision is clear.

I want my work to keep evolving into something even stronger, cleaner, and more recognizable. This portfolio is a foundation for that. It shows what I can do now while making room for where I’m headed next.
