What should I name my photography?

Question

I've been searching for the "perfect" name for my photography, but apparently I'm either too picky or indecisive. A friend suggested JBExposure (or JBEx for short), I like it but at the same time I'm not fully sold on it. So I'm looking for more suggestions or help coming up with one. At the moment its more just so i can have a separate page to share my photography and to have a name for a watermark. I do a lot of pictures of nature type stuff (landscapes, leaves/trees, flowers, sunsets, rivers, etc). I dont do a lot of portraits or family photos because I'm not all that good at them yet...my initials are JLB, and i dont HAVE to have my name or initials as part of the name... i am a Christian so i'm open to "Christian" / "Bible" like names, also..if anyone could help give me some suggestions it'd be much appreciated... i'd really like the name fit me, my photography, but not necessarily say that i only take nature pics because maybe someday i'll take photos for people as well...

sorry for the somewhat lengthy explanation, and thanks for reading and for any suggestions you may send my way =)

Answer 1

Name it Photo-Perfecto this is a catchy name and also implies perfection.

Answer 2

Quite simply... '(Your name) Photography'

Please do not use Christian or Bible references. As an Atheist I am respectful of other peoples beliefs. But if I was in need of a photographer and I saw Christian or Bible references in the company name and all over the website, it would put me straight off. By introducing your religion to your business, you are going to put many people off and thus lose business.

Answer 3

Most people who ask this question have been shooting for less than a year or two and have no education in operating a successful business much less own multiple professional cameras and lenses that are needed for professional photography.



If this sounds like you, I recommend taking more photography and business classes before worrying about coming up with names.

Answer 4

Hmm, in vein of Christian names, here's some thoughts. These are combinations of photography words combined with names from Wikipedia's list of biblical names:



Sodometer

Caindid Photography, Caintrast

Judashutter

HeroDOF

Pharaohtography

Pontius Panorama

Jezebelight



Addendum: Aperturapture, Leviticapture

Answer 5

JLB's Photography???????????
