Photography Logo-$150-May 20

[nevadabadgirl]

Contest_Holder: mbradbury

Company_Details: I am a photographer who is currently looking for a logo. My company name is 'M. Bradbury Photography'. I specialize in wedding photojournalism, but I also do portraits and corporate events. I want my look to stand out a little from all the rest.

Type_Of_Contest: Logo Design

Title: Photography Logo

Deadline: 5/20/2008

Prize: $150

Colors: (one or both): #3399FF (Blue), #9966CC (Purple)

Examples:
http://www.alwphotography.com/
http://www.jenniferphotography.com/ (I like how this logo uses script
and a clean font together. I also like that it has her initials as a
focal point.)
http://www.norma-ann.co.uk/ (Again, I really like how it has
her initials in the background)
http://www.ornamentphoto.com/

Comments: I would like a logo that is elegant, yet simple and clean. My website it in black, so I would like the logo to look good on black. I love scripty fonts, but I also like the clean typface (especially for the word 'photography'). Nothing too feminine or masculine, but one that balances both. I don't want the typical 'wedding photographer' logo. I would really like a logo that can grow as my business does and not classify me as a strcitly 'wedding photographer'. Words that come to mind: Sophisticated, Clean, Elegant, Comanding, Noticeable, Classic

I also want to mention that I will need the logo in white (on black) as well. I It will be used as my "watermark" on my photos, so I would really like a more "opaque" white so it doesn't show up too clearly when it is put on a photograph.

I look forward to seeing everyone's entries!

Please let me know if there are any questions I can answer that will help you along the way. I look forward to seeing the designs!!!

simple, modern.....

@rinaldidesigns

Thank you for being the first! Overall, I really like the design! I like the font for "Photography", but I would prefer the "M. Bradbury" to be in a script font. Some script fonts I have found that I like are:

Bouwsma Script
Italican Script Expand
Florencia Bold

Also, I like the gray with the blue. Can you maybe add some "shine" to it as well?

a Round Variation

@rinaldidesigns

I really like the round version as well! Can you try and put "MB" in the logo instead of just "M"? Again, I would like "M. Bradbury" to be in a script font.

I think I am liking the blue better with the black (instead of the purple). Thanks so much! These are great!

[rinaldidesigns]

Here is the first concept, script font and shine added....Thank you for your feedback!

I left just the m, I feel it it balances the design......Thanks

@rinaldidesigns
I really like #8. Can I see it on a black background as well (it will be on black on my website)?

For #11, can you change the "M. Bradbury" to the font you used on #8? Also, I think I like that font without the M.Bradbury capitalized (just as you have it in #8).


@guetizo
I think I would rather just have EITHER blue or purple. Both is maybe a little too much. I definitely like the "shine" on the second one. However, overall, the design feels a little too whimsical and not very sophisticated.

@rinaldidesigns

I really like both of these on black, except the gray doesn't really stand out much. Maybe the gray should be white on the black background? Other than that, I like both of these "as is"!

@casperamy

Thank you for submitting an entry! I love the script font you chose! However, I am not sure I like the circle shape on the end of the logo. What was your inspiration for the design? Also, I would love to see the design have some color in it!

[thenameisjolo]

Here's my first try, it's based on a camera flash...

[mbradbury]

@thenameisjolo

I really like the concept of the "flash", and also the coloring on it. Can I see the "m. bradbury" in a few different script fonts? Also, can you just make it blue and not blue and purple for the "m. bradbury"? (I like the flash symbol in 2 colors.) Thank you!
