POV: Beginning layers of the PrideFest flyer.
First, I want to let you know that I am not AI and I am the human generating the designs. I got a message asking if these were AI-generated. Nope.
Full transparency: I have noticed that some images in the Adobe Stock library appear to be AI-generated. However, I primarily use my own work and stock imagery that is not AI-generated, as I deeply respect the creative process and the value of original artistry. I personally prefer working with original artwork and find collaborating with artists and photographers far more meaningful and creatively rewarding. I also encourage clients to help keep the arts alive by supporting and employing working creatives whenever possible.
In some cases, I may use AI-generated images provided by clients if they align with the overall design, creative direction, and goals of the project.
I designed the flyers for the PrideFest event series, presented and produced by DJ Image. Throughout June, PrideFest AZ will host multiple Pride Month events across Arizona. I posted the Flagstaff design and the Phoenix design is the next in the series for print and social media.
For more than 20 years, I’ve worked as a self-taught creative strategist and graphic designer specializing in event marketing, event design, and visual storytelling for LGBTQ+ entertainers and producers.
I want to help make events instantly recognizable, easy to understand, and impossible to ignore at a glance.
I design visuals to tell a story. I want people to feel the energy, understand the vibe, and want to be there the moment they see it.

If you are hosting events and need a graphic designer for event flyers, social media campaigns, and promotional visuals that build momentum before, during, and after your event, I am open to aligned collaborations.
