My last name is a nightmare (Gerritsen) (wow that is not very good sounding).





I came up with the idea: madebymadison. as a brand name. it works, I get loads of good reactions.


What if you decide to do something similar? I personally don't think your name has a bad flow. It sounds unique, dependable, and has a nice ring to it. How about Osterman Productions. Shot by Osterman. Osterman Studios. Osterman the posterman (just kidding). Osterman visual. It's not your name I have a problem with but finding something that adds a communications layer that sets you apart and pushes you in the field of image production and photography. Osterman: I shoot everything. Funny, but I would definitely remember it.





When I finish I am going to set up a studio and just name it after myself. Hopefully people wont think I am a girl.



LOL The Posterman. haha That one got me!


Where are you from? With your name, and liking the flow of my name, it must be Sweden, or Germany. haha


Hmm....Those are good thoughts, though. I'm one of very very few people with that last name in the northeast USA. There wouldn't be any others.
