Looking for creative inspiration

syn3rgy · 8 Sep 2014 at 14:47

Hi all, wondering if there are any creative gurus out there. I am trying to make a watermark for my photos and just can’t come up with something I like. I am looking to use “syn3rgy” on them. Anyone got any good ideas? Also, not sure if I should rather put my name instead or a combination of both.

Thanks

You'll probably regret sticking syn3rgy all over your images, why do you need to watermark them?

You are most probably right. its just more of having my name on the photo with a little symbol or something.

Think i would like to watermark them just as a means of "getting your name out there" not that i am looking to make a profession out there.

I'd just use your full name and leave off photography as it's not a business.

Keep it small and classy.

Personally I use my name, and as I do gig photography as I prefer that, I have a guitar silhouette as a part of it. Like here: https://flic.kr/p/ooexmw

While I could have made it myself, I decided to pay my friend to make it for me, as it's good to go down this route as it helps spread your name, even if it's via his work portfolio

I can also edit it to suit what I do, e.g. dropping 'photography' if it's just a web image, etc, as I have the PSD file.

It all depends on what you're trying to do. If it's to promote yourself, try using an image that is a part of what you do, or even something meaningful from your family history.
