I’m Rick Brayner — designer, photographer, musician, and the creative behind Squeeze The Light.
My work sits at the intersection of strategy, storytelling, and visual clarity. I help brands understand who they are, what they stand for, and how to express that with confidence.

Born and raised in Brazil and shaped by Salvador, Barcelona, Maui, photography, surf, and music — my creative language comes from movement. Light. Curiosity. The feeling of being on the edge of something new.

Every project I touch starts with the same belief:
when you find your light, everything aligns — identity, purpose, and direction.

Over the past years, I’ve worked with cafés, surfwear brands, restaurants, creators, galleries, lifestyle projects, startups and individuals with a vision. Whether I’m building a brand from zero, shaping a story, designing a website, or creating the assets a business needs to move, I bring clarity, intention, and a sense of calm direction.

Squeeze The Light isn’t just a studio — it’s a way of seeing.
A way of guiding ideas from what they could be into what they must become.

Let’s build something that feels true.
