Picture perfect camera logos

Your camera is probably the most important thing in your life after your family (and even then it’s a toss-up). Perfect subject matter for your logo, right? Yes, but remember every photographer uses a camera and that could make your logo look generic.

To ensure that your camera logo stands out, give it some personality. Consider combining it with another object or image to show what kind of photography you specialize in. Or have it designed in your photography style (e.g. make it cutesy if you photograph kids).

A focus on lens logos

Any good photographer knows that your lens matters way more than the camera body. You can apply the same principal to your logo design. Whether you choose to focus on the aperture ring or focal distance markings, picking a distinct photography detail can make it clear what you do while giving your room to be creative.

A logo to make them remember your name

Photographers, you’re both an artist and a business. You rely on your name to build your brand. If you’re building your business around your personal name, or if brand-name recognition is important to you, consider a signature (literal or figurative) wordmark or lettermark logo.

Show the world through owl eyes

A photographer’s job is to see things that others don’t and to show us the beauty, pain and wonder that they witness. When we look wedding photographs, or family portraits or exotic landscapes, we’re experiencing the world through the photographer’s eye. It makes perfect sense that we see a lot of eye imagery in photography logos.

And what has big eyes? Well, an owl!
