branding

Well Atlanta was pretty sweet. I took lots of photos of some awesome dances. Everyone always looks so cute when they are dancing. It doesnt hurt that lindy hoppers are probably the prettiest people on the planet. Anyway, this blog is NOT about ATLX(check later today). Its about my new branding. Ive been quite excited about it for a while. I love it and Im excited about how awesome it is. But this is just the start of changes coming. Soon Ill get a new blog and a lot of other awesome things for my clients. How exciting. Things are coming together.

Ive been working with an October bride (who happens to be a designer) for about a month now trying to figure out what exactly I wanted.  I know I wanted it to be happy, energetic and vibrant with a splash of cute. Because when I asked friends what they thought of me and my work this is what they came up with. These are also the couples I want to work with so it fits right? Red, yellow and teal are some of my absolute favorite colors. I'm really digging on mustard yellow right now. Its hot! I'm a big fan of lens flares. Not the ones that completely take out your face but the ones that are just awesome. Sheila knows my work and it was her idea to incorporate a flare into it. What a great idea making it into the exclamation point!

My New Logo! 

What do ya think?
Sheila did a FANTASTIC job so you should hire her for all your design needs!

Thumbs up. Love the colors!

I like the red and orange colors to replace the green.

The current graphic and logo feel like a hobbyist's branding, especially since the word "photography" is so small comparative to everything else.

The NEW graphic and logo convey professionalism and glamour while retaining a sense of fun. It feels '50s hollywood, instead of '50s kitsch.

I LIKE IT.

In theory, I really like it, but I worry that the end of "Mercer" gets lost in the graphic. I just wish it stood out a little more.

Love the colors!

I just wanted to say that with the final minor tweaks to your logo, where you added a smidge of whitespace behind the end of your name, that I'm completely in love with your logo. Good job, to both you and your designer!
