Logo: Re-Image Photo

This past month I had the pleasure of working with Kellie Riess of Re-Image Photo. She started her business in 2006 as a way to give back to Palm Beach County Mounted Posse http://www.pbcposse.com/ . As a child she showed horses at PBC MP she wanted to give something back to the community she grew up in, beautiful one time images.

In 2009 she moved to Hawaii and decided to move on from horse shows to pursue portrait art and now chose to strictly do portraits and weddings. She believes Customer Service is #1 and the quality of an image is paramount. Her Fine Art Lifestyle photography can be seen on her website http://www.re-imagephoto.com/ Be sure to stop by to see family portraiture and divine images that touch the heart!

Photographer Kellie Riess has a diamond image in mind for her clients - her new logo reflects an image of now and later, flash and strength while exuding a lighter and brighter side of life. Sage green and white color scheme reminds us of the ocean seafoam that which her business is inspired, and the black background is a reminder of a dark room, that so well characterizes photographers. Re-Image Photo's new logo is timeless, simple and understandable.

Take a peek at her photography and new logo and be sure to keep an eye out for her upcoming MerryBird blog article about helping amateurs with their own photography.

A Business Logo: The Sun in Your Customers Sky

Starting a new business or revitalizing an existing one is an exciting endeavor. And, there are many ways to get noticed to make a mark in the big business world online and off. An entrepreneur may start by having an extraordinary product/service to sell/offer but have no clue how to bring in the market buyers. Although I’m not a marketing expert and can’t advise you in marketing techniques, I can be of service by telling you that you should have a creative logo designed to represent your business. A properly marketed business needs a logo for customer recognition and retention of that business.

A logo in all its integrity is the “sun in your customers sky”, “the star in your customer’s galaxy” or in other words it will make your service/product get noticed and remembered.
A good designer will create a logo that is simply memorable. One view or many a creative logo will create instant recognition. Recognition and admiration is exactly what a business needs!

You may find a designer by recommendation or a search on the web. However you choose to find your designer you should know a few questions to ask her/him before you begin.

1.) Does the designer work by contract? What the customer and designer expect and will ultimately receive at the end of the design job depends on the contract! Read fine print, ask about deadlines, ask about final cost, and revise where necessary. Agree, Sign off and begin!

2.) How will I receive my design? File formats to ask for are .ai, pdf, eps, jpg, png. Know that you need a file that is 72dpi for online viewing and a file that is a minimum of 300dpi for printing purposes. Be sure the format you receive can be utilized in different ways. For example, can the logo design be reduced to fit on a keychain or enlarged to fit a billboard?

3.) Does the designer need specific pantone colors or will you leave it up to the designer to choose them for you? Ultimately the designer should provide you with a logo design that can be converted from color to black and white. No matter what the color of the logo is, it should keep its strength and integrity for online view and in print format.

These few tips from The Merry Bird Designs should get you started with your research for a business logo design. Remember, for customer recognition and retention of your product and/or services be sure the Logo is Simply Memorable, the Logo can be converted to Black and White and the designer provided the Logo in a File Format that can be enlarged/reduced for future printing.

The sun in your customers sky is shining already!
