Kelly Michaluk PhotographyLogo Design Contest

Thanks everyone for starting this off so quick! I like the Magenta and black or the magenta and white colors.I don't like having the film strip or camera shapes.I like the way#14 looks but not too crazy about the font.I want something that will look good as a watermark on my photos .I forgot to mention that i also like twirls ( not sure how to describe them so here is a link for a site that has some things that i like http://www.simplycouturedesigns.com/) I do feel that the logos are a bit masculine.i hope this all makes sense!thanks!

#16 seems to be doing something for me!Is there something we can do with the K and M? So that if i just want to simplify as a logo on a shirt or something?#16 maybe not the camera pic?

I like the idea that the K and M stick out in 24 and 25 but i dont really like the font.I like #22 ,what if the top part of the logo was in behind the name?There is still something about #22 that i like.i think it is the swirls.

#10 Now that i look again i am also liking what you did with the K and M.

hmmm not sure about #26.the name kind of gets lost.

what happened to #22?i still kinda liked it.the one with the swirl

k, i do not like the font in #30,#31 #32.am i giving enough feedback?#27 #28 i like that the K and M are sticking out but not really liking that font.It is a bit traditional for me.is it a good idea if i posted some logos that i liked? #39 and #40 i like the concept but dont like the font.

I have been doing alot of vintage post processing to my images.Is this something that would help with some ideas for the logo?another resource website i use is www.designaglow.com

i like #46 .i can see using the K and M as a watermark on my images for proofing,can the font be different? I like the surprise element of the branch coming out of the m. can you do ay other variations ?thanks!!!

#10 i like .but it looks a bit masculine for me.

#42 again i like the idea that i can just use the part of the K and M as a watermark .interesting design.i just feel that people won't get that it is a K and M.

thanks charles for resubmitting that logo but it is not the on ei was thinking of.it was like #20 but had a swirl like you have on a desig you did for "origins " it is in your portfolio.thanks!

hey there Ryan,not sure what the um meant.i did click on the link that you posted and would love to see what you can do witht he k and m .i did like the twilrly things that you had in logo #44 but not the font.

Hi Ryan, both fonts actually.thanks!

thank you everyone for all the new design! i look forward to logging on everyday andseeing what people have come up with!!!Charles thank you for putting back that design.I really like #57.I could see using just the image of the camera and swirl in a water mark but then it really doesnt have any accociation with Kelly Michaluk on its own.Just an idea...is there a way that the swirl could be made up of of a K and M? Just throwing that out there. Still like #46.Like i said before i like the surprise element of the twig swirl coming out of the M .Is there a different font that can be used to make it a little more feminine? any variations on the swirl coming out on the M?i am liking #54. i do see the K and M more now.thanks! I like the twirly stuff you put around but i wonder if it stretches out too much.Just thinking about if i was to use the top part of the logo for a water mark it may take up too much room on an image lengthwise.thank you so much everyone!!!!i look forward to new stuff!

#64 is cool. #63 i like that the M is in the cirle.what if you took out the backwards K? and just had the K and the M in the circle and used some twirly things around the circle or something?How about a circle around KM on #64? then use the twirly things some how.thanks!

cool charles!i like #65 better than #66.what if you keep #57 the same but add a K and M in the cirlce of the camera pic and keep the swirl the same?thanks!

is 56 a better font?

not really.sorry.maybe something a bit more modern style font for#56

#74?

#74 thanks! it looks better.it seems a bit long? is it possible to shorten the logo up a bit?thanks aWARD for the color variations.it does intrigue me.I just wonder if people will get it? i do like it and i like that there is somethign that can be simplified for a watermark.thanks again !

thanks, i uploaded a shortened version, i appreciate your feedback

Kelly, my decision to make the graphic a little more abstract was to allow your actual photography to stand out more. I think what you really want are people to "get" what YOU are most creative with, and that your logo supports that. The more I review this logo myself the more I can see the little ribbons be used for multiple applications, ie: website, business cards, etc. By abstracting the watermark further it becomes like a personal signature.

aWARD,
i totally get what you are saying and i agree i do see the ribbons being like a signature.i find them very interesting.if the 2 colors in the background were one color (say black or grey or,magenta) would that totally ruin the design?just throwing that out there.thanks!

thanks again everyone.Charles, not sure if you gt my comment on #57.I like the swirl going through the camera shape.i like the height that it gives.is it possible to incorporate the k and m in that swiirl ?does that make sense?liking #86! is it possible to see what it wold look like if the twirl on the m is on the middle part of the m? a few people thought it looked like an "n" .thanks!

#85 i like the little picture of flower and km.i dont like the font of the kelly Michaluk.thanks!

Charles is there any way you can keep the shape of the swirl in #57 but make it into a k and m?

is it possible to do #86 in a different font and see what the branch with the twirl looks like in the middle line of the "M"thanks!

thank aWARD!
