Ed Asmus Photography

Built around Ed's new logo (folding-camera mark, “Ed Asmus / Architectural Photography / Est 1981”). Neutral palette so the photographs carry the color.

Mark

Favicon

On dark: the logo always sits on its white field, as on Ed's letterhead. Never recolor the mark.

Header size: 44px tall (38px on phones). Clear space = the height of “EST 1981” on every side.
