Photography StudioLogo Design Contest

: ) Entry #s 1, 2 -- LIKE: I like the J-with-p square, as it's close to a brand identity thingee. I like the mod custom text, and I like the tri-tone cleaness. DON'T LIKE: mod text is great, but this might be a bit too mod. Photography is too small. : )

Thanks for the feedback. :)

Here's another one with less typeface mod and "photography" already adjusted.

I'll try some other font variations. :)

: ) Thanks! #13 Text is a bit better than #s 1,2, but I think it is possibly too modish and techie, rather than expensive or elegant... it's a bit hard to read, as well. Maybe less action 'sports shooter' and more 'euro-smooth-mod' type text? Photography better, but somehow still too weak(?) Also, it must have impact sitting on a plain bkg, without the help of a gradient behind. : )

: ) now I see the j with p symbol is an s as well ...pretty cool

Yeah, intentionally it is J and subtle S... I didn't notice that it could be a hidden P as well. ;)

Thanks for the feedback, I'll give you another options.

Thanks. : ) #20, #21 I'm still not on with the text... not crazy about serif font -- though I do like Prada's serif font for some reason -- I like euro-clean-sophisticated-light-architectural san serif fonts best, but like fun mod-round, as well. number twenty four's font from this contest https://logotournament.com/contests/designog might be something...

BTW -- I like http://s114.photobucket.com/albums/n255/Byron_Uy/Logo%20Design%20-%20Corporate%20Identity/?action=view&current=ono.jpg

and http://s114.photobucket.com/albums/n255/Byron_Uy/Logo%20Design%20-%20Corporate%20Identity/?action=view&current=kimpearson2.jpg

Thanks! I'll give you some more options. ;)

clean and elegant

(This comment references Entry #42)

Thanks again- I like #42, but I'm still a stuck on #22 and its cool text-logo thingee... but, I'd need it in grey-n-red or grey-n-orange or maybe even grey-n-olive(?) I don't know... but grey and something... My site is a template that changes from white to black with no way for me to change it, so it has to show up on both.

ps -- the 'photography' text must be even stronger, as its a bit hard to make out on my 1900x1200 monitor. : )

Ok, I will work on that. Thanks!

I'm so on for this symbol thingee... it has the makings of a brand in it -- which is what I want to get going. Are you open to following this through with more materials after the contest? (letterhead, thank you cards, etc)

The 'photography' size is good now. I like the open J in the symbol, though I'm not sure better than the first... it'll take staring at to decide.... I like #22 and #51 fonts... they are very different, but both work. I lean to #22s font, but don't know why. (more like a brand...? a bit goofier like me...?...I don't know) Thoughts: Perhaps an open J, but still using the rounded rectangle, instead of a circle? Maybe the symbol could follow my name... like a 'mark' (?) Also: I need to see #22 in grey to make a final on that, as I'm stuck with my site template right now... [it's a downer that I have to semi-tailor my branding design for a measly website that I'm tied to right now... but to switch sites would be a nightmare of work and time I don't have, as all the shots on the site have been cropped and sized for its exact specs]

Thanks for your prompt feedback. I'm glad you are pleased. I'll get back to you later...
Absolutely! I'd be happy to submit a proposal with regards to stationery materials application. Good day!

Revision... #77, #78

Lemme know your thoughts. ;)

Thanks once again-- you rock! OK, I think we've got it: I like the text shape/font in #22 and #77 [I think they are the same but a bit of size difference(?)] Their text has got punch, but is rounded and non-threatening...like me. Of course, the 'photography' in #77 is much better. Definitely readable now. I like BOTH #22 and #77 JSP symbols, even though one is closed and one open... can't decide. Forget the circle, (I think). WHAT I THINK MIGHT MAKE IT: either #22 or #77 font/text & JSP symbol, BUT... make it a smaller symbol, and located after my name, instead of before, and aligned more top than middle or bottom. It would also be great to see it in red like #22, substituting the black for grey, and... any other combo you think might work, as well.

Thanks for feedback and kind words. ; )

I'll submit the revisions in a while.

#123 and #122 are fantastic! I can't wait to see it with the symbol closed, as well. PS - I had a had time changing the color due to jpg compression artifact... just wanted to see it in red and a gold-yellow-ochre-y -- somewhere like my mockup... : ) very cool.

As you requested. ; ) Thanks!

The grey - deep yellow-ochre looks interesting. :D

More options...
- Included icon mark ;)

Thanks!

Hey there! I've been trying to get you feedback for a while, but I've got a very spotty internet connection right now, and this is the first time I've been able to get on in a while. Here's what I think: It's hard to beat #135 with anything... I like #150 a lot for concept... the 'photography' and logo in-line is brilliant. A touch of elegance AND corporate. But, I think the font is maybe a bit too congested... I don't know... not romantic enough(?) flowing enough(?). So... I'm thinking now that I should go with #135 with no logo for my consumer clients' invoices, invites, thank you cards, etc... and just put the logo in-line with photography (like it is in #150) for my corporate clients' materials. Turning the logo/symbol on and off is really what turns the "corporate feel" on and off for me. What a winner. Thanks a whole lot.

and you can use the icon as stand alone. ;)

Yes indeed... that's where I want to go in my future... to be recognized by icon only. ; )

I'm glad you are pleased. Thanks!

script font option #172

Thanks a lot! Fantastic! Please mail me, and we'll continue business together... (business cards, letterhead, etc...) josh@joshsailor.com
