Favorite Booking: “My all-time favorite booking was for Sasha Igardi. She is an Italian shoe designer working in S.F. The shoot itself was so interesting. I really got to get creative with my poses and Sasha's styling was so dark and tasteful. The photos came out so amazing that I ended up on the cover of the Chronicle."
Favorite Local Designer: “Kathryn McCarron. There's such a laid-back sexy feel about her clothing and all I ever want to be in life is this sexy, laid-back, expensive-looking, badass chick. Who doesn't?”
What's special about being a model in S.F.? “Everyone knows everyone else. We're like one big family and we take care of each other. If it weren’t for the friends I have in this industry, I wouldn't be where I am today.”
What's your best style secrets? “Save everything. Being a model, I'm pretty good at maintaining my size and I have clothes from when I was in 8th grade going through my punk-rock Avril Lavigne phase. I had pretty interesting taste then, and we all know fashion tends to repeat itself, so why throw your hard work away?”
Fashion Resolution for 2012: “To stop caring about what other people think. I spend most of my mornings putting together the sweetest outfits, but then I change and start all over because I don't want people to think I'm crazy because I'm wearing a hamburger sweatshirt with shorts and stockings. I need to remind myself that it's not really my style if I continue to hold myself back.”

Brianna wears American Apparel socks, Urban Outfitters shoes, a Forever21 jacket, and a Juicy Couture purse and jewelry.
