When I started this adventure, I designed my logo in Photoshop. It was black and gold; simply put, boring. There was a part of me in it with the black
and gold, Geaux Saints, but the logo
itself was not sexy as my husband
would say. A year ago, I decided to take
his advice and hire someone to revamp my logo.
I knew I wanted it to be classic and clean. I knew that my logo not only needed to
represent me, but my home. I wanted to
stick to my Southern roots and chose to have a Fleur de Lis as a part of the
design. When I look at my logo now, it
reminds me of walking the French Quarter in New Orleans (Nawlins for your
locals). It reminds me of the sound of
tap dancing on the streets or a saxophone playing in Jackson Square. It reminds me of the rich jazz history that
surrounds you when you walk the cobble stone streets. It also reminds me of all the devastating
events that have happened to my home state.
All the hurricanes year after year and most recently the extreme flooding
that has swept my hometown. This is what
my logo means to me. I may have moved to
another state, but Louisiana and all her beauty will forever be my home.
