Project Summary:

What text should be included in the main part of the logo?
Kris Lane Photography

What type of product or service do you offer?
Portrait photography and soon to be offering wedding photography

How long have you been in business?
One year

What do you hope to accomplish with your new identity?
Establish a brand

When is the deadline for final entries before choosing a designer?
Feb 12, 2010

Audience Profile:
Please describe your existing audience
middle class families, moms with newborns/kids

Who would you like to add to your audience?
middle/high end brides, higher end families

Perception/Tone/Guidelines:
What type of logo would you like?
Something recognizable. I need something that's more professional, but still fun.

Do you have any colors in mind for your logo? (if so, why?)
A dark neutral color. I really like dark gray and white together, with pink as an accent if an accent color is needed.
No greens or blues.

Do you have any specific images or icons in mind that you would definitely like to see incorporated into your logo?
Nothing in mind, I'm open to ideas. I like silhouettes of people or things but I can't think of something that would work for weddings and kids both?

Communication Strategy:
What attributes would you like your logo to reflect about your business?


What is your tagline or slogan?
Don't have one

What is the overall message you are trying to convey to your target audience?
Professional, but easy going and flexible

Where will your new logo be used?
All marketing and branding....website, blog, stationary, biz cards, etc.

Competitive Positioning:
Who are your competitors and what do you think about their logos?
As far as a logo I'm pretty much looking for something in between these. #1 a little to soft and #2 too hard/urban.

List competitive URLs if possible
#1 http://carilynphotography.com
#2 http://www.charletonchurchill.com/

Here are some logos that I like. I like the use of the silhouette in the last one.
Thanks everyone!!!

Thanks for the first go Blink!

I'm drawn to more of a block type of text, I'm not sure what to call it? I know my middle example I posted goes against that, but I liked the uniqueness of it.

Thank you for the feedback! I will mock up something with more of a block style of font.

Thanks!

I like the initials added instead of just the name, but they don't seem to flow together.

Thank you. Here is another version:

Thanks, I do like that one better than the first version. But on that note...it's pretty similar to a logo that I had designed for me when I was first starting out. It works but I guess I'm just looking for something more creative or stand out-ish. Here was my logo that I'm talking about....

KrisLane

I'm still kind of drawn to the silhouette idea...

What about like a little boy and girl kissing?
or something symbolizing love, marriage, baby carriage type of thing?
(heart, ring and carriage or baby rattle??)

Would that be cheesy? Looking forward to seeing more ideas!!

Now were talking! I love how everything is incorporated but the text is still simple.

I like the style of font, can I see it with something similar that has a little less of a slant..like in the A and the N.

Hi Kris. Here are a couple of font variations. Let me know what you think.

Thanks glyphica, but it's not really working for me. It seems unbalanced or something?

I like these post with the silhouettes, but I guess that idea looks like I'm strictly a child photographer. Maybe if there was a way to make it a little more classic? maybe even a vintage feeling?

Can I see the dot on the "I" and "photography" in gray also?
And the pink color more of a pink? It's looking a tad red to me. Thanks!
