Rich Rochlin Photography Logo

Here is a logo I created for Rich Rochlin Photography. What we started with was nothing like what we ended up with. We went through a bunch of revisions on this logo as nothing seemed to fit just right for what Rich was looking for. But after talking it through and picking his brain a little more, this logo came through the fog and it was clear that this was the one!

I used the “R”s in his name and made a mirror image of them. Then I took the leg of the “R”s and made them longer to represent a tripod. The camera fit just perfectly on that tripod and I added a lens and a cutout for the flash.

Valdorama Photography Brochure

This was one of those projects that come along once in a while, where the client says “I want something different, get creative!” …and he actually meant it! Val Nanovsky is one of Connecticut’s premier wedding photographers. His photos are breathtaking and he wanted a brochure to showcase a variety of his work, in a way that would make people stop and look twice.

I decided to start with the folding. Once we have that down I can then move onto the design. Since this is going to be a dynamic piece I wanted to have a diagonal right off the bat. So I started with a square piece of paper and folded it on the diagonal. I played around a little more and as soon as Val saw it, he loved it! On to the design!

This was the challenging part… I had to fit photos which were perfectly composed as rectangles into triangular sections. Because of the way the brochure folded, there was no place for a square photo. All of Val’s photos were “brochure-worthy” but not all of them would fit into this brochure.

As usual, with a brochure of this caliber, we went through many revisions trying to get it right. I showed him multiple versions of the design as we went along to try to see which direction he was looking for. Eventually, we got it!

Val has a great eye, and along with that comes great composition. Val’s work is one of a kind. Each photo is a work of art, and I had a blast designing this brochure. It was a challenge at times, but that’s part of the fun. If it’s not challenging, you didn’t try hard enough! Along with being a great photographer he’s become a good friend too. We had so much fun working together we decided to get together to do a photo shoot of the final piece!
