Hi,

I am looking for a logo for my photography business, I specialize in images of Newborns, Babies, Children, and Families. My style is relaxed, comfortable, and candid. I really want my brand to reflect this. I want something that reflects my personality and will stand the test of time. I am working on a new website and an just about ready to go live with it as soon as the logo is finalized. You can find a preview HERE (http://www.launavalentephotography.com/elena/) and hopefully get a feel for my style. I am so excited about seeing your work! Thanks so much!!

Oh somebody please pick me! After following a few of the recent threads I can't tell you all how excited I am to see what you all come up with! This is a brand new beginning for me and I just can't wait! Thanks for all your hard work! You are a talented bunch!!

Hello :)

Thank you.

[launaann]

Oh thank you so much for getting the ball rolling! This is so fun! I think this is beautiful, but a little to much for me. I think maybe something a little more simple, less swirls and such and maybe more casual.

Below is one of my favorite logos with the feel I'm going for.

[launaann]

wow, we are definatly on the right track! I really like NHR's designs with the sketchy feel to them, cool idea to have the L and V form a heart. Not sure about the colors......I'd like to see a couple more different ideas.

Here is another example for you all.

Anybody else?

[launaann]

Oh I think I really like the colors on this one, I think it would look good with the black with white polka dots that I am will be using on my new website (see the link in the questionnaire) and I really like the way the heart is roughly colored in. while I do like the thought of the L and the V I think I'm the only one that would notice and it might be a little fussy for me.

Like the font a lot, might like to see something in a print version as well.....my name is spelled Launa though, no big deal, I get it all the time! LOL!!

These are getting good! I think I'd like to stretch the due date to Monday and see if anybody else would like to chime in.

Thank you.

[launaann]

Wow!! We are definitely on the right track!! These are getting good!

Blink- I LOVE the little camera, I might like to see the fonts a little different, maybe a tighter font on my name.

Xpressions- love version 3, but I think I really would like a hand written font.

NHR- Version 2.31 is awesome!! Love the font and colors! I really can't find anything I would like to change, for sure one of my favorites!!

I'm going to get some opinions and make a choice tomorrow, if anyone else would like to jump in that would be awesome! This has been so much fun, and you can be sure I will recommend you to anyone who needs a logo, it's so awesome to get concepts from so many different designers!

[Blink Graphix]

Hi,

Version 5.

Thanks,

Blink Graphix

[launaann]

Wow, this is going to be hard, can I see Blink Version 5 with a lower case L and V? And maybe add some pink or orange to the camera?

[Blink Graphix]

Sure, here are the requested changes.

Thanks!

Blink Graphix

[launaann]

Thanks so much for taking the time Blink, I LOVE it, I'm getting some opinions tonight and I'll make a VERY hard decision tomorrow!!

[launaann]

Ok....sorry this took so long, this is really one of the hardest decisions I have had to make, I thought this would be a great place to get a logo designed because you get to see so many ideas......wrong!! It makes it all the harder to choose!!

Thank you for all your hard work! You all are awesome! After much deliberation I would like to work with NHR version 2.31! The more I look at it the more I like it!

Thanks again to everyone! You can be sure that I will recommend you to anyone I know that is looking to get a logo!
