    I prefer the simplicity of the latter.

    The "wave" one does have great potential, I like the style! But you need to slim it down, tighten the curves and it will be great!

    try adding some rainbow colors to the wave in the first one, some slight color from the waves coming from behind the name should make it eye catching.

    Yeah, the colours would add some bunch, but I'd choose one colour and use different shades.

    Here's my logo...

    I like the first design the best.
    Don't forget about the Gallery. Are your photos there??

    I think if your target client is families/weddings/babies/etc you should go with the second one. If you try to sell your photos to businesses/newspapers/magazines, I'd go with the first.

    I personally like the second better.
    Feel free to edit and repost my photos as part of your critique.

    I to like the second one better, the first one looks like a graphic arts shop logo rather than a photographer's, at least to me

    Hands down the first one.
    It's not blurry. It's bokeh.

    Exactly what I was thinking. I like the simplicity of the second if it works with the clients you're trying to target. I guess I do agree about tightening up the curves on the top example though.
