Logo, Identity & Packaging Design for St. Louis Metro East Photographer

Posted on May 6, 2014

Niche Photography, a St. Louis Metro East photography studio owned by the talented Chad Keffer, recently came to Visual Lure to help re-brand his company.ย  Niche main focus is on engagement and wedding photography but they have recently been dabbling into baby and children’s photography too.

Chad’s old logo consisted of a common handwritten script that seemed a little generic. He wanted his new logo to feel rich and upscale.ย  During our creative brief we asked Chad to provide us with sample logos that he really liked. Many of the samples he provided us were very ornate, so we decided to head in that direction.

Below is the final logo, the final letterhead system and initial packaging options, which we are currently working on.ย  We may also be designing Niche a new website, so check back soon to see how we start to visually pull his entire brand together.ย  In the meantime, check Niche out at niche-photography.com, or facebook.com/NichePhotographySTL.

Visual Lure recently completed a branding package for Profit Leasing, a St. Louis, MO semi-trailer truck leasing company.ย  The owners wanted the logo design to have an icon of some sort that represented money and profit.ย  The logo we designed consists of a wing that was inspired by a fan of hundred dollar bills.ย  The wing represents speed and motion for logistics and the fannedย hundred dollar bills represents money and profit.

Posted on March 24, 2014

Visual Lure is currently in the process of designing a new website for Mr. WordPress, a Colorado based web developer that specializes in fast-loading, SEO friendly and W3C compliant custom WordPress themes and plugins.ย  We will be providing design-only services on this project as our client will develop the new website himself.

Visual Lure Rebrands a St. Louis, MO Hospital/Medical Center

Posted on March 20, 2014

Visual Lure, in collaboration with Cohesion, recently helped St. Anthony’s Medical Center with a new logo design and slight re-brand.

Cohesion is a strong strategy-based St. Louis, MO marketing and branding agency, and St. Anthonyโ€™s Medical Center is a faith-based hospital organization that serves the residents in south St. Louis County and several counties in southwest Illinois.

We initially started the project looking to completely re-brand the hospital with an all new logo, but in the process they decided they just wanted to update their existing logo.ย  Below is their old original logo and below that is the new one.ย  Staying true to the two-tone blue color palette, the cross and the “swoosh”, we modernized their old logo design bringing it up-to-date.

Below the logos, you can see the new identity package (business card, letterhead and envelope), a micro-site for their emergency room and a couple pages from their new graphic standards guide.

At the very bottom is our favorite unselected logo design that we initially proposed.ย  This logo features a medical cross combined with a religious cross representing both faith and medicine which is the core of who they are.

Logo Design for Atlanta Based Photographer

Posted on November 22, 2013

We are in the midst of wrapping up a new logo for Traci Reid, an Altanta, GA based photographer.ย  When we received her signed agreement for the project, we were immediately drawn to her signature and we decided to create a custom hand lettered logo inspired by it.ย  We modified it to make it more legible, as her ‘T” kind of looks like a “J” and her “R” was a little hard to read.ย  You can see both the logo and her actual signature below. Underneath that is her final logo with a sample color palette utilizing her favorite color purple.

Traci was having a hard time deciding between these two logos, so we asked her if she wanted her brand to be more friendly, personal and approachable or more modern, fashionable and luxurious. She decided on the later, so the more contemporary logo won.
