Branding Package for an Edwardsville, IL / St. Louis, MO Wealth Management Firm

Posted on June 26, 2014 by JUSTEN HONG

Visual Lure is currently wrapping up a complete branding package for Visionary Wealth Advisors. VWA is a full service wealth management firm headquartered in Edwardsville, IL with another office in St. Louis, MO. The package included a logo, identity design, print collateral, signage, posters and a fully custom WordPress website.

The new site is fully responsive, meaning it transforms to fit all devices such as tablets and smart phones. It is also search engine optimized and features a custom admin section making it easy for VWA to manage their employees, referred to as “Visionaries”.

Below you can view both the vertical and horizontal logo design formats, the identity package (business card, envelope and letterhead design), building signage, corporate folder and their new website. Visit VisionaryWealthAdvisors.com to learn more about the company.

Logo Design for a Denver, Colorado Husband & Wife Photography Team

Posted on June 25, 2014 by JUSTEN HONG

Some of our clients have no idea what direction they want to go in when starting to build a new brand, while others have done their research and know exactly what they want.ย  In the case of Joe and Robin Harbison, a husband and wife wedding photography team out of Denver, CO, they pretty much knew exactly where they wanted to go with their new brand.ย  They had color palettes already selected and samples of logos they liked. They were leaning towards a circle logo that incorporated mountains and weddings as they prefer to shoot mountain weddings.

Below is the final logo along with a sample identity package to show how they can start building their visual brand.

Brochure Design for St. Louis Senior Living Management Company

Posted on June 24, 2014 by JUSTEN HONG

Visual Lure, in collaboration with The Hauser Group, recently completed a new brochure for St. Andrew’s – Resources for Seniors System. The Hauser Group is one of the top public relations firms in St. Louis, MO, and St. Andrew’s is a Missouri-based senior living management company.

The new brochure showcases the joining of Cape Albeon, a Valley Park, MO faith-based retirement facility, within the St. Andrew’s family of senior living communities. The client really wanted to emphasize the merging of the two companies and requested that we incorporate circles into the design.ย  Below you can see both the front and back cover along with two different inside spreads.

Custom Illustrated T-Shirt Design for NMFN’s St. Louis Network Office

Posted on June 18, 2014 by JUSTEN HONG

Visual Lure recently completed a custom illustrated t-shirt design for one of Northwestern Mutual Financial Network’s St. Louis offices that will be worn by all their reps at this years annual meeting in Milwaukee, WI.ย  They requested that we use the statue of King Louis IX of France in the design, as it is a symbol of the City of St. Louis, and it looks similar to their new rep’s statue.ย  We also added the NMFN logo to King Louis’ scepter and as a design element in the background.

Logo Design for Comedy Club Coming to Fairview Heights, IL

Posted on May 28, 2014 by JUSTEN HONG

Do you need a new logo designed or possibly a re-brand?ย  If so, GET IT DONE RIGHT THE FIRST TIME!ย  It always amazes us how companies don’t have the budget to get a quality logo designed up front, but they somehow have it for re-designs (because they aren’t happy with what they receive from less experienced designers).ย  Your logo is the cornerstone of your brand.ย  It directly reflects your business, so having a visually unappealing, amateur designed logo makes your company look unprofessional and amateurish.

This brings us to Hey Guys Comedy, a new comedy club coming to Fairview Heights, IL, where the old Cupids Restaurant used to be located.ย  I believe the owners went through two to three designers/design firms before they contracted Visual Lure.ย  In an email from one of the owners, she stated “I have had a heck of a time with a few different companies and people have not been nice at all.”

That is where we came in.ย  After initial communications we found that they knew exactly what they wanted.ย  They wanted a logo with a vintage microphone that was on fire. Below are our initial logo design options of the burning microphone. The last option was an extra design that we sketched while we were on the initial phone call.ย  Check back soon to see which logo they select, and be sure to check out the comedy club when it opens.

Fun Logo Design for a Fisheye Photo Booth Company

Posted on May 15, 2014 by JUSTEN HONG

Visual Lure just wrapped up thisย newย logo for Fisheye Booth, a West Virginia photo booth company that takesย fun event photos using a fisheye lens. Since the photos areย playful and hilarious, they wanted a “fun” logo that would stand out and be memorable. ย Below is the new logo design and identity package weย delivered.

The logo features a fish with a camera shutter eyeball, all slightlyย distortedย in the same way as the photo booth images. ย The fish is also carrying a cane and wearing a bow tie and top hat as the booth will most likely be used at weddings and other formal events. ย Those elements were also added because the booth will supply funny props such as glasses, hats, and other accessories to enhance the experience and the images.

Branding a Miami, FL Wedding Photographer/Videographer

Posted on May 14, 2014 by JUSTEN HONG

Leonardo Volturo, a very talented photographer andย videographer from Miami, FL recently contracted Visual Lure to re-brand his engagement and wedding photography studio.ย  The branding package included a new logo, a business card design, a print ad and a new custom, responsive designed WordPress website and blog.ย  The new website features a Pinterest style masonry portfolio with a pop-up slideshow and an infinite scrolling blog.ย  We will also be providing search engine optimization (SEO) services as they were having a hard time getting their existing website to rank in the highly competitive “Miami wedding photographer” search results.

The new website is currently in the development stages and should launch later this month, so check back soon to see the new site. In the meantime, check out his current website at www.leonardovolturo.com.
