Were you one of the 300 some odd people to receive a set of our 2009 holiday ornaments in the mail this year? These puppies took quite a little while to prepare and ship out. A HUGE thank you to our Communications Coordinator, Katie, for addressing and stuffing nearly all of them. We don’t think she ever wants to see another piece of sizzle shred for the rest of her life!

Our sincere apologies to our international clients and vendors who probably didn’t receive their packages by Christmas… We are pretty positive that they got held up in customs and you’ll probably get them in March. We will send them in October next year.

December 5th, 2009 Branding

The focus for Janelle Joy, the artist, is capturing life in natural light. It is a very colorful, organic approach to photography and the keystone for Janelle Joy Photography. The focus for Janelle Joy, the businesswoman, is providing her clients with a unique and enriching photographic experience – during the session itself and after, when they look back at Janelle’s work. These were the guiding principles when we began developing a new brand for Janelle Joy Photography. Her love of natural light inspired our use of clean, bright color and the appearance of flora-inspired design elements throughout her overall branding package. Like her work, Janelle was looking for something classy and timeless that fit with her personal philosophies on art, business and life. In the end, we were able to give Janelle a lasting brand that transcended trends and instead provided her with a look and feel that can “grow” with her business.
