Here, we show 23 photography logo designs to get your creative juices going and help you narrow down the search for your own photography logo idea.<\/p>\n

1. Bring The Camera Into Focus<\/h2>\n

A camera on a photography logo<\/a>. So original, right? But there\u2019s a reason it\u2019s such a popular image for a photography logo. It gets the message across instantly! It\u2019s highly recognizable, memorable, and has enough angles, edges, details and curves that you can add your own artistry into even the most generic of camera symbols and make it truly spectacular.<\/p>\n

You can shape it into a travel bag to symbolize travel photography, or give it the yellow-and-black colors of bees to inspire a sense of wildlife photography. You can also go retro for clients who prefer vintage or even to showcase your unique style. Or use the lines and edges to form the lens in geometric angles.<\/p>\n

2. Set The Lens Apart<\/h2>\n

One more way to create a great photography logo is to focus on the lens. Using the parallel between a camera lens and the human eye lens, you can play around with the concept and see where it takes you. The round lens can also become your symbolic synonym for focus, precision, and sharpness. Think of chopper blades, the reel of a movie film, the antenna of a drone \u2013 all these symbols can accompany the lens of camera to create really amazing logos for your inspirational photography brand<\/a>.<\/p>\n

You can never go wrong with a wordmark or lettermark logo. Never. It is especially great for brands who want to make a statement with their name alone \u2013 and as brand marketers, we know it\u2019s always a good move. It instantly establishes you as a confident market player, somebody who isn\u2019t afraid to own it. Wordmark logos, especially the monograms, can also be timeless and enduring.<\/p>\n
