I have worked as a photographer for more than thirty years and on numerous occasions I have been amazed that the person I have met and thought had attractive facial features appears un-photogenic in a photograph. Conversely with some of the groups I have photographed it has been the person I least remembered in the group who turns out to be most photogenic.
I have now embarked on a PhD to find out why this happens.
Part of this project has been to conduct a survey of portrait photographers.
I have now come to the conclusion that the same phenomenon happens to them, and that even experienced photographers sometimes fail to recognise a photogenic or non-photogenic subject in the flesh.

Can anyone recommend a graphic designer for a rebrand project. This would include developing further a logo idea I have,and taking it through to designing the stationery as well. I am based in Essex but would appreciate all suggestions.
