Inspiration board for photographer logo design

I spoke last week of redoing my website and look.  I'm still not completely done with all the little tweaks, but my logo is complete!  I just want to say thank you to Leslie Vega.  I heard about Leslie through another photographer in my Flickr networking group, and her website really caught my eye.
