I’m Umi Patterson, a multi-disciplinary designer and photographer with a practice rooted in curiosity, detail, and storytelling.
My design work spans graphic and logo design, ready-to-wear apparel, product packaging, and goods, while always leaving room for exploration and new mediums. My approach is to dive deeper into the lenses of brand identities and individual concepts, developing thoughtful, high-quality solutions that feel both intentional and enduring.
In photography, my focus has been on portraiture, lifestyle, product imagery, and visual storytelling. With a background in marketing, I aim to serve as a creative bridge—helping clients translate ideas into visuals that connect with wider audiences in meaningful ways.
My journey here has been anything but linear, shaped by a lifelong habit of observing the world through a micro lens. That calm but attentive perspective opened a path for me to transform my observations into creative expression.
ESYG is my conduit—a space to collaborate with creatives, brands, and businesses seeking distinctive visual solutions. What drives me is the process: cultivating ideas with dynamic people, aligning visions, and bringing them to life together for our shared part of the journey.
