In partnership with Sarah Dickerson Portraits through a joint branding service called Cypress Branding Studios, we collaborated on Branding Development for startup Bourbon Watch Company.

Through Design and Photography, we developed cohesive branding to tell the story of New Orleans history and traditions through the use of time.

Inspired by the French Bourbon (bur-BON) family history and crest and it’s roots to the New Orleans city, we wanted to brand to represent this sense of luxe. The watch dials are inspired by the famous New Orleans DH Holmes Department store and their iconic clocks throughout the store. The different colors reflect the different personalities that can be found throughout the city.

CHOMP (Short for “Custom Healthy • Meal Preparation”) NOLA is a local company designed with the health conscious in mind. They seek to provide fresh, healthy, prepared meals to the Greater New Orleans Area. Team Chomp conjures up a new menu weekly featuring a variety of uniquely healthy yet tasty meals. Chomp Nola’s customers, dubbed “Chompers,” have the capability to enjoy a freshly “home” cooked meal, free of guilt and become part of a special community looking out for their overall health and well-being.

Young and the Invested is “a place for young people wanting to learn how to invest, manage and plan their money with confidence.” They are “a growing online community for young people looking to improve their financial literacy, and by extension, learn how to invest, manage and plan their money with confidence.”

For their brand, we wanted to give the juxtaposition between the “young” viewers with the youthful font often seen in the school room, and “the invested” with a more sophisticated font emulating the growth from novice to experienced.

I had so much fun working on this brand identity design! Working on all of the parts, how they flow together, how they'll interact with members, and essentially become their identity. How the brand relates to New Orleans and those who reside within, feeling the pride of being from New Orleans and the fitness community within.

Vanguard: A group of people leading the way in new development or ideas.

Vanguard wanted to build a space that represented people with similar goals from all walks of life to be able to come and put in the work and succeed with the support of others. So we made sure to build a brand that represented this mindset. The shield represents the strength of the whole of the community joining forces to the betterment of everyone, and paired with a strong display font, the brand as a whole makes you feel like you’re a part of something bigger than yourself.

Sometimes, brands grow and develop. Formerly known at Golden Eve Photography, Sarah decided she needed to rebrand herself the more she grew into her brand. Thus Sarah Dickerson Portraits was born.

We wanted to make sure the brand represented luxury, elegance, and timelessness. Something of a heirloom to her clients so they know that what they’re receiving is of the highest quality and will capture a moment for a lifetime.

My good childhood friend started her dream career and came to me explaining she wanted something that would reflect her passion for photographing the beauty of living a prosperous and meaningful life (Golden), as well as that of new life (Eve).

She wanted a brand that would express the beauty in imperfection, the circle of life, from beginning of life to the end of life. The bud expresses the eve of life, while the magnolia in full bloom expresses that of having lived a full beautiful life! The watercolor shows the viewer the beauty in imperfections of life.

Surface Pro Powerwash’s brand was designed in the shape of a water droplet. Here the seahorse demands your attention and stands a strong symbol, representing power, strength, and the ability to get the job done. The swirl of the tail entrances you and draws you into the brand.

Based in Southern Louisiana, Gessco seeks to treat water for systems from the smallest of chillers to the largest boilers and cooling towers around to make sure they’re running at peak performance. In search for a new brand, they needed something that emulated this ability, that showed their knowledge and longevity in this field of work.

The logo represents water passing thru a filtration system, where it ends up treated in the “o.” Either logo can be used to represent Gessco LLC.

American Safety LLC is a company that delivers you training certifications, emergency response crews, industrial crews, yard maintenance crews, PPE sales, and more!

To represent what this company offers, here is an abstract idea of 2 triangles coming together via “technology” to form a protective shield/diamond that bridges the gap between human safety and the technology used to make us and our workspaces safer. Shield, triangles, diamonds, circles, these shapes often are used in safety world to warn people of hazardous materials and/or areas. The direction of the dots and lines emulate the stars and stripes in the American fag.

Interstate Boat & RV Storage is located near 3 major interstates, I10, I12, and I59. The owners wanted something that not only represented the importance of their location, but also that of safety and security.

The brand is designed like a camp badge, a badge of honor. Having a camping badge shows that you know the ins and outs of how to safely camp in the wilderness. You’re an expert at camping. The design emulates that sense expertise. A badge of honor you can trust them with your large investments (RVs, boats, etc). Since the majority of customers are those that enjoy the outdoors, this brand helps relate to the nostalgia of camp life.
