Here is a link to my site so you can see who I am;

www.littlemonstersphotography.com (http://www.littlemonstersphotography.com/)

I change the word bubbles weekly to add new conversations between my husband and I-this site is really my heart and soul and very very much my personality. I love these monsters and am looking for something similiar. I bought commercial rights to these monsters and am allowed to tweak them so if you are allowed to do that, I can attach them. They are in .PNG, though. I am new to this so am not sure what is and isn't allowed.


Project Summary:
What text should be included in the main part of the logo?

Little Monsters Photography

What type of product or service do you offer?

Portraiture for Children and High School Seniors

How long have you been in business?
2.5 years

What do you hope to accomplish with your new identity?
Firm up my branding. I LOVE my current monsters but they are sold on a scrapping site and I really want something specifically for me. If I could get the monsters personalized for my family that would be awesome. A Dad with a baseball cap, Mom with a camera, tween girl with an cellphone, 5 year oldish boy with a fauxhawk. ;)

What are your long term goals?
To open a child friendly studio complete with indoor play equipment-think Chuck E Cheese minus the mouse, pizza and singing animoatronic animals. And with a photographer.

When is the deadline for final entries before choosing a designer? June 19th but I can be persuaded to make it longer.

Audience Profile:
Please describe your existing audience

Middle class, teachers, fireman, police officers, auto workers make up the majority of my clientele. 30-40 year old suburbanites.

Who would you like to add to your audience? More people with money. :)

Perception/Tone/Guidelines:
What type of logo would you like?

I need a logo that has two or four monsters in it-two parents and two kids-one boy one girl. The logo can contain just the parents or all four.

*****Once I get a winner I will be asking to separate the monsters so I can use them separately on my website. I will only need the vector art file of each. They need to be 400-500px tall. I understand this is extra work and will be asking how much this will cost for my winning Designer to take care of this request for me.***********

Do you have any colors in mind for your logo? (if so, why?)
Yes, I attached a color palette.

Do you have any specific images or icons in mind that you would definitely like to see incorporated into your logo?
Just the monsters-I am open to ideas.

Communication Strategy:
What attributes would you like your logo to reflect about your business? That I am fun and lighthearted.

What is your tagline or slogan?
Where kids drool and monsters rule.....

What is the overall message you are trying to convey to your target audience? Hire me because your kid will have fun and you will get portraits you will love.

Where will your new logo be used? On my website and marketing materials.

Competitive Positioning:
Who are your competitors and what do you think about their logos? They are very corporate. Not at all what I am trying to portray.

List competitive URLs if possible

What sets you apart from your competitors? I am a pretty fun person and love kids, more than a job, my business is a way of life for me.

Targeted Message:
State a single-minded word or phrase that will appropriately describe your company: FUN

This is such a great start. :)

Some things I definitely want;

All four monsters to have 2 eyes and no sharp teeth.

Very cute and happy looking monsters.

I had my monsters attached but now seeing the submissions, I think I like the fact that they are different.

Tini1-

Holy cow! Those look fabulous! Definitely on the right track!

I would love to see the mom with more rounded teeth and made a little more feminine and the kids smaller than the parents. I LOVE these.

I am so in love with these. They are exactly what I am looking for.

Can you please make the Mom's earrings just small white pearls and add a pair od rectangular brown glasses-like Velma on Scooby Doo? Then it would be me exactly and perfect.

What is the policy for ending early? This is it for me. :)

Perfection!!! I would also like to purchase the monsters as a separate PSD file. Ideally with all 4 on separate layers. I would like to use them on different pages of my site separately and in different combinations. How much would you charge for that? :)
