I LOVE how the M&S flow into each other on these designs!!!!!! These are my favorite so far. #33 is good but I think would be too large, top to bottom, but I'm not ruling it out. On #32 and #31, I really like the sizing of it all. I think it would fit nicely and I like how the MS is a tad bit larger than the name.

I can't decide whether I like the brackets around the MS or not. Would you be able to play with it a little more. For my name, I'd like it to be the same color but the word photography a different color. Also, can you try to center the word photography instead of having it centered to the left? Please leave what you have up here though because I REALLY love these! Thank you!!!!!!

Dear Melissas,

I am so glad that you like the logo :)
Here are the revisions suggested from you:
#38 and #39, i have removed two angles, so to look little more interesting and unique.
#40 have a little glossy to make it more elegant.
#42 and #45 on white background
#44 the icon is in two colors separated with the letters.
Hope you like the new changes, and if you have any other suggestions please feel free to let me know

Thank you!

Indigo,

OMG, I'm REALLY LOVING where you're going with this and now it's hard to decide, lol!!!!

- I like the 4 brackets better than the 2.
- I do like the change on how you also added a square instead and I think I'm really digging #44 as well.
- On #44, only thing I would change is the color. I'm not really a fan of orange, lol. Can you try pink, purple & red in place of orange? Can you also change it so Melissa Shanahan in the same color (instead of 2 different colors) and photography is a different color from the name? Photography can match the color you use in the logo?

Thank you , Thank you!!!

Dear Melissa,

Here are the updates based on your comments.
The color of Melissa Shanahan was the same, but "Melissa" was looking darker because it was ticker than "Shananhan". But i have bolder up "Melissa" a bit, and now I think its more noticeable that they are the same color. Also i have to say that the letters "M" and "S" are hand drawn and uniquely created just for your logo, so if you have any suggestions for the symbol please feel free to let me know

Thank you!

Oh I see. You are making this so hard (in a good way)!! I absolutely LOVE the hand drawn letters just the way you did it. It's perfect!!!!! They flow so nicely together and it works REALLY well!!!!!!

Thank you for being patient with the changes I'm asking of you. I never realized how many options there would be! I've decided for the word photography, I like how you have it all spaced out so the length matches my name as shown in #40 & #70 (and a few others).

The top row are really my favorites. I'm now torn as to what design I like better, with brackets, without, the square around the initials or the 2 tone color, lol. Job well done for making it so hard!

I was hoping to incorporate my website if possible www.mshanahanphoto.com in a smaller font than the rest. I'm not sure if it would be "too much" look like, but would you mind adding it to 40, 70, 37, 64?

PS. On #70, can we also change the color to a deeper red, like a burgundy color? I'd like to see if a little darker and richer and #69.

Dear Melissa,

Thank you for the ranking, I am very glad that you still like the design.
To be honest I also really like the design, it is very strong and very easy to remember by looking at it only once. The most beautifully thing is how the hand drawn letters are made symmetrically. Its very good for using it on every kind of branding from small to large size. So if you require any changes please feel free to let me know, it will be my pleasure to make them for you.

Kind Regards
Indigo

Thank you!
