Your business identity is the first thing people see. Mine is in the upper right hand corner of this website and was designed by Cindi Garabedian. People will make huge assumptions based on your logo or type treatment. In the photography world, too many of us think because we are artists that also makes us designers. Sorry, but this is not true. I see some of the worst type treatments from photographers. Because I grew up in a world of graphic design and I started out as a designer first, I have a bit of an upper hand on most of my colleagues (photographers.) All this means for me is lots and lots of savings (time and money.) When it comes right down to it, if you are not good at design, hire a professional. Most graphic designers start at around $1,500 to $3,000 for a simple logo design and type treatment round. Because I am a professional photographer who also happens to be a graphic designer, I am happy to offer my quick start services for emerging photographers only to get you up and running with a great type treatment for your business at over half the cost of a traditional designer. Let me know if you would like to get started on making a better first impression. It is sad when a really great photographer gets hopped off on the internet because of a poor identity. (Above are samples of my work.)
