After designing photographer Sarah Dawson’s monogram logo, Mode Design wanted to create a business card that would be as unique and expertly crafted. Flourishes and cutouts complete Sarah’s backstory as a bold, feminine world-traveler. Furthermore, the choice of blue for the brand will distinguish her from other photographers.

Project Description
After designing the logo, we wanted to create a business card that would be unique, and represent her as a photographer in both weddings and more. It was important to create an identity that showed her as a world-traveller, feminine and bold. The card features a custom die-cut that accentuates the design's flourishes and gives it a unique shape.Production Lesson(s)
I tried printing with just one color, but using a percentage of the color on the flourishes ended up showing halftones in the proof. Adding a second Pantone color solved that problem instantly.
