When searching in Vagaro, your logo image is the first visual a potential client sees, so it is important that you choose a great image that attracts more customers. To present your business in its best light, we suggest you partner with a photographer, graphic designer, or one of our Design Team members. You can then add your logo to your Vagaro account by uploading the image to your Venue Gallery.
If you'd rather create or add your own logo, we've provided some tips to help you choose a stunning visual to represent your business.
-
Choose a photo of your studio space, work, staff, or just an image of your business logo.
These subjects will best represent your business to potential clients.
-
Make sure the image is high quality.
High resolution, sharp, and not blurry.
The left image is low resolution and, therefore, blurry. To ensure a high-quality image, upload an original file under 5MB that is at least 1000 x 667 pixels.
-
Use a horizontal orientation or crop it into a 3:2 ratio.
A horizontal image crops best when the image has a 3:2 aspect ratio; however, some vertical photos can also fit.
In this vertical portrait, the subject's lovely features are cropped out.
In this horizontal portrait, no valuable information has been cropped out.
This horizontal portrait is an excellent example of a well-cropped logo image because the entire image is cropped within a 3:2 aspect ratio.
-
Take your photo in natural, soft light.
You can achieve soft light in front of a window or outside in the shade.
Moving to the shade softens the subject's features.
The lighting in this photo is too harsh. Direct sunlight creates unflattering shadows.
-
Use text sparingly.
Your business name is the only text needed on your logo image. Your business information is on your Vagaro Listing Page, so there is no need to display it on your logo image.
The text on the left image does not distract from the image, while the text on the right image does. Business information is unnecessary on a logo image.
-
Avoid distracting backgrounds. We want your work to be the focus.
Photograph your subject against a wall, a simple background, or blurred background.
The cars in this background distract from the subject.
A clean background makes the subject pop out in the photo.
-
Do not use a collage.
You have a small amount of space to entice customers, so choose one great visual that will invite them to your page.
-
Place your logo on a 3:2 canvas (1280 x 1920 pixels).
A cropped logo looks unprofessional.
This logo does not fit within the 3:2 aspect ratio.
This logo was placed on a 3:2 canvas, and now it fits within the entire frame.
