Picture Purged
I'm starting up a photography business and I'm trying to come up with a log. The website I've set up for the business (still under development) is victorspictures.com. I can't believe I actually scored such a great domain name.
Anyway, my first idea was to capitalize on the rhyme of the domain name, hence the following:
The first one is my first attempt. The others are changes based upon feedback I've received. Among the feedback was that it should look good stamped in one color on the side of a pencil.
The sketch is my brother's suggestion. Obviously, that would have to change if I trim my beard. Maybe I could do something similar featuring my hair. Any graphic designers among you who want to share a suggestion?
Victor,
Good luck with your website...personally, I LOVE the sketch!
Take care,
Brett
You dont really need a logo. You need to convince with the pics. I`m into photo as well and am trying to pierce thru the professional world.
I disagree with this, for the kind of photography I'll be doing. It will be on-site event photography. The sales generated will be a direct result of on-site marketing. With this type of business, immediate gratification is the key. People need to be able to tell at a glance that I'm "the" photographer and that I'm there for business. I (and my assistant) will be wearing t-shirts brandishing the logo, there will be a display, signs, the works.
Victor,
I really like the top picture. I would not change a thing about it, other than possibly adding Victor(s) within it somewhere.
FWIW i like this one
I'd go with the sketch, (its excellent!) but I'd rework the text, cos its a little difficult to read, Unless you already know it says "Victor's Pictures" its a little difficult to figure out.
I'd experiment with a few fonts see what you come up with try: www.1001fonts.com for ideas.
