Logo Design for a Photography Editing Company
Posted by Justen Hong in Logo Design, Identity & Branding on January 25, 2012
Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a logo for a photography editing/post production studio that “evolves” photographs into art. The client requested that the logo be “artsy” and somehow portray evolution, so we found a typeface that felt like it was transforming and we customized it. We meticulously manipulated the pinstripe curves and loops to give it a feeling of motion and balance. Visual Lure also assisted in the naming of the company.

Posted by Justen Hong in Website/Web Design on January 12, 2012
Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a logo and website for RaceTech Titanium, an Edwardsville, IL based company that sells Titanium fasteners for motorcycles, race cars, dragster, mountain bikes and more. The final logo is show below, the large logo on top, along with some of our other logo design options.
Since the mass majority of their clients are in some type of racing industry, the logo design they chose features a “finish flag” in the circular motion in which it is waved at the end of a race.

Logo Design Testimonial from New York Photographers
Posted by Justen Hong in Logo Design, Identity & Branding on December 23, 2011
Here is a testimonial that we just received from a couple of photographers that we recently finished logos for:
“After many years in business without a proper logo or brand identity we came to Visual Lure through a friend’s recommendation. We were immediately impressed with the collaborative process that Justen at Visual Lure employed. Through conversations and questions, Justen interpreted the broad description we painted of our company and somehow took it to a level that embraced, refined and elevated our identity. We came away with an amazing, exciting logo that has unlimited branding potential. We were so thrilled with the results that we immediately brought a second project to Justen, with the added request that it be done quickly to meet an impending deadline. Not only did he incorporate the full meaning of our concept into the second logo, he gave us what we believe will be the cornerstone of our second enterprise, and in short order. We can’t say enough good things about Justen, his creativity and his ability to turn words into art that represents his clients’ vision.”

Here are the three logos we designed for them:
Logo Design for New York Wedding Photographers
Posted by Justen Hong in Logo Design, Identity & Branding on December 21, 2011
When we finished the logo design for Boudior Rocks, the owners loved the new logo so much they decided to redesign the logo for their wedding photography business also. They requested that the two logos tie together somehow, that the new logo have some type of hidden meaning and if possible, represent “two”. Two as in, two people get married and they are a team of two wedding photographers.
So we brainstormed, and we sketched, and brainstormed, and we sketched, and brainstormed, and we sketched… You get the idea, and then it hit us like a ton of bricks. Two wedding rings, made out of two camera shutters, intertwined to represent a marriage of two people and two wedding photographers working together to capture that day. We cleaned up and customized the same typeface that we used in the Boudior Rocks logo to give the two logos some cohesion.

Logo Design for New York Photographers Specializing in Boudoir Style Photography
Posted by Justen Hong in Logo Design, Identity & Branding on December 12, 2011
Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a new logo for Boudoir Rocks, a New York team of photographers that specialize in boudoir style photography. They really wanted the new logo to have a hidden meaning or a symbol that was integrated into the design somehow. They also wanted a separate design element that they could use as a watermark. Below are our initial logo design options that we provided to our client. All the logo designs show horizontal, vertical and watermark options.
The logo design below features a “tattoo style” heart and arrow that create the letter B. We figured what is more “rock” than a tattoo, right? Both the typefaces used in “boudoir” and “rocks” where hand drawn and converted into vector art.

The next logo features a brassiere that creates the letter B. We custom illustrated the bra so that it complemented the style of the typeface:

Our final logo design option features a simple monogram made out of the letters B and R:

Logo Design for New York Photographer
Posted by Justen Hong in Logo Design, Identity & Branding, Website/Web Design on December 8, 2011
Visual Lure was recently contracted to design a logo for Tony Calarco, a very talented New York based photographer and owner of Tony Calarco Photography. He wanted to start building a fashionable, modern, high-end looking brand, so in the development of the new look we explored multiple sans-serif and script style typefaces. In the end, we went with a unique customized sans-serif type. We also created a complementary icon that he can use as a watermark, in background images, etc.
We are currently in the planning stages of redesigning his website, but feel free to check out his photography at www.tonycalarco.com.
Check back soon for news about his new website design.

Logo Design for a Collection of High-End Photography Albums
Posted by Justen Hong in Logo Design, Identity & Branding on October 3, 2011
Once again Salvatore Cincotta Photography has turned to Visual Lure to design a new logo. They are in the process of launching a new collection of high-end photography albums. The new album line will be called The Signature Collection. The only direction we received from Sal where these five words: elite, rich, boutique, modern and artisan.
I imagine the logo will be embossed into leather, possibly even stamped into metals or carved into wood, so the logo needs to be simple. Below are our initial proposed logo designs. The top left logo features a stack of photo albums that create the letter “S”. The top right logo features a “SC” monogram which stands for both Signature Collection & Salvatore Cincotta. The bottom left logo features a stack of three albums, the top two create the letter “S” and the bottom one creates the letter “C”. The bottom right logo simply features an elegant script font. Check back soon to see where these initial logo designs take us.
