I need a logo for a photography studio in Texas. Check the Brand DNA in the description section.

Carter Rose Weddings

:MY DNA:

Elegant  - Classy but not ornate    

Real – My work is real not fake

Art – I make art out of life

Charismatic – People like me -

Warm – I am a warm person –

Simple – working with me is easy

Current – My work is contemporary - not fad driven

Approachable – I’m within your grasp

I photograph weddings for people with a pretty decent amount of money – While most of my clients are young, the people writing the checks are older and more established. I have to be able to appeal to young couples but seem reputable to old money.

My philosophy in business is to keep it simple and relaxed but at the same time maintain a level of professionalism that is appropriate and makes people comfortable having me be a part of their wedding day (a fairly formal event).

I am a guy – My photographs and general aura are a bit masculine – My target audience is female – My goal is to balance the personality of me and my company with my target audience – If I have to lean one way I’d lean towards representing me slightly more than my target audience.

I want a logo that matches visually what my brand represents.

I want my name to be treated as two different words - The double R is confusing.

I am weary of ALL CAPS as my first name CARTER sometimes looks like CRATER if the spacing/font isnt treated just right -

no camera's

no stick figure brides

No roses/ flowers as symbols its okay if they are incorporated in a minimal way.
