I have been using one of the following variations for the past 2 years:

Photography by Rafael Telles
Telles Photos

I am planning on start making a portafolio, mainly portraits and glamour photography, so I was thinking is a good time to finally start using the same name and logo. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated :)

Your name is an anagram of "real leaflets". But I bet you dont use that ;)

Interesting. I didn't know it was an anagram :) Thanks Gary

Photography by Rafael Telles - Sounds to me like a credit on and article or catalog rather than a brand name.
Telles Photos - Sounds a bit amature.

Maybe something like:
Telles Photography
Rafael Telles Photographic
Rafael Telles Design
Telles Imaging

Or maybe something more specific to the type of photography that you do if you specialise in a particular area.

I asked my wife for suggestions for a name; she knows I am interested in portrait, glamour, boudoir and fashion photography so she suggested: "Magic Spell Studio"
As for my name alternatives she prefers "Telles Imaging" out of all the options.

At least she narrowed it down to 2 choices :) Now I got to make my mind...
