Logo Design for Houston, TX Area Photographer/Photography Company

Posted on April 9, 2013

Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a new logo for Shabby Jack Photography, a Houston area photography company located in Spring, Texas. The owner, Tracy Hopkins, initially used a logo design “contest website” for her first couple of logos but was never really satisfied with either of the final logos she received, so she finally came to Visual Lure. We ask Tracy to provide us with a couple of logos she liked so we could get an idea of her style and aesthetic.ย  She provide us with the following logo designs:

The above logos are for reference only and are the property of their respective owners.

 

Once we had an idea of what Tracy liked, and what she was looking for, we came up with the following logo design options (see below).ย  Below, you will also see her last “contest” logo and the final two logos that we designed (at the very bottom).

Logo Design Package for Annapolis, Maryland Photographer

Posted on March 1, 2013

Visual Lure was recently contracted to design multiple new logos for David Hartcorn Photography.ย  David Hartcorn is a very talented professional photographer from Annapolis, Maryland and he knew exactly what he wanted for his new logo.ย  He wanted a custom typeface logo inspired by his actual signature.ย  Below you can see his actual signature along with the final logo.ย  The new logo needed to be refined so that it was legible, but still maintain the same “feel” as his signature.

Next, we designed a logo for David’s premier photography line called Black Label Collection. He wanted the Black Label logo to look classy and high-end.ย  You can see that logo design below along with an unused logo option to the right of it. Below that, you can see a logo for his sub-brand Studio 98 Photography and a secondary “cartoon” mark he sometimes uses with his signature.

Family Crest/Coat of Arms for the Broyles, a St. Louis Metro East Family

Posted on February 5, 2013

Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a custom family crest/coat of arms for the Broyles, a St. Louis Metro East family. Using design elements taken from both sides of his family crests, plus adding new elements, we combined them to create a new custom coat of arms. Our client wanted the new crest to look centuries old, so we drew the entire crest by hand and kept that feel when we converted it into digital artwork.

Here is the initial sketch our client provided us:
