Help!
I hope to eventually expand into a small business out of my home for photography. Doing mostly child photography. I want to go ahead and select a name, so that I can begin develping a logo, watermark, paperwork, etc. I read an article that said it was best to keep it simple, and just use your name, like (First) (Last) Photography. I have no problem with that, except, my married name is Johnson, so boring! So, it would be Emily Johnson Photography. My maiden name is Keith, so not much better - Emily Keith Photography. (Plus my hubby would be hurt, if I used my maiden name.) Emily's Photography is a little too small-town sounding. My middle name is Trouve', it is an old family name, so I have thought about using that. Any suggestions?
- Trouve' Photography by Emily
- Studio Trouve'
- ???

Any help is appreciated. Thanks for your creativity!

Thanks for imput, but I should add that Trouve' is a French work meaning "Found."

Trouvé Mémoire.

Trouvé Lumière. (quite like this one)

I dunno how to properly structure it, I failed French many years ago! I just think it would be nice to have it in French.

For what it's worth, emilyjohnsonphotography.com is already taken. emilykeithphotography is available.

I would be careful with getting too cute with Trouve, because people are going to stumble when typing in your web site.

Good luck.
