We are a team of photographers based out of Denver, Colorado getting ready to launch a company unlike anything we have seen in our market before. We specialize in wedding and portraits that are very elegant and beautiful but have a bit of "darkness" to them as well. We do a lot of stylized high fashion shoots with great quality and individuality that makes us stand out from the market.
For our logo, we want something that is elegant and beautiful and that would work well on a hat or hoodie as well as on our website and business cards. We are not into the graphic type of logos that are cute and colorful, we are looking for something that is more of a stencil type with clean lines and masculine with a touch of femininity.
Our logo has to coincide with our website launching soon: www.wiseowlgoeshoot.com
Because we want it to go with our site, the main part of our logo will be an owl. To make the overused owl stand out from the crowd, we visualize an "athena" style owl where it is sideways and looking back or over the shoulder but feel free to make your own if it looks better overall. We are pretty open to ideas. To make the owl shape, we visualize using tree branches (see example) to give it a more darker look and more elegant than typically seen. We like darker colors rather than bright ones to go with our brand. The final design should communicate elegance and individuality.
Design may have the words ... JP & L Photo.
Owl must be original, like a clean modern stamp.
Lines to form owl should be tree branches like the whole provided.
Please no owls sitting on tree branches, that's not what we are looking for.
Look forward to seeing the designs!
