Where I've been & Where I'm going..

A New Design for the New Year!

Hello and Welcome to the newly redesigned EV Photo Chic blog.  I've been working on creating a new header and background design for a while, (mostly while on my lunch break) but here is it!!  What do you think? I'm working on adding more to the blog as well such as pages and other fun things to browse through.  I'd love to hear what else (if any) you'd like me to include.

Blog Header Design Concepts

I recently came back into contact with a childhood friend of mine from middle school. She's just as sweet and talented as she was back in the day ;) A creatively passionate Interior Designer, Amy launched her own design firm A.L Design in 2007. She recently wrote me asking if I could help with redesigning her blog header. I jumped at the chance, as I had such a fun time with my recently redesigned header. To give me an idea of what she was looking for she sent me an inspiration page with ideas, colors, and fonts. Her logo is a leaf, so I made sure to incorporate that into the design as well. I am SO excited to share with you my design concepts that I have been working hard on all this past week!

{These concepts included a photograph of some of her work.}

{ These were my first concepts, simple and sweet

with colors and whimsical touches I hope she'll love!}

I'll keep you posted in which design she chooses. I really enjoyed this process and hope to do more in the near future. If you know anyone who is looking for a fresh new look for there blog, I would love to talk to them! Or if you would like some tips on how to help you with your own design (including photography questions) email me with your questions and ideas to:

New Blog Header

Horray! I made the time this week to finally redesign my blog header! It was in need of a major redesign and I just felt like I needed to spruce up my look a bit. I love the way it turned out! The bird is my Springtime inspiration. What makes a good header great? I think color, simple design, and a dose of the bloggers personality included in their header makes the biggest impact. Below are some of my favorite headers being featured now in blogland.
