Edit My Images
Yes
Can someone please help as I can tweak my images in lightroom etc but I cant join images etc.
Now as some of you may be aware I shoot Air Rifle comps etc as my other hobby. I also photograph a lot of the regional and national events. (I do it for enjoyment it's not paid)
The Last couple of years at the worlds events especially last year in Poland I have been becoming one of the main Photographers.
This Year we are fortunate enough to be hosting the worlds in England and I was asked if I would become the Official Photographer for the Worlds ( A role I have semi had for the last 2 worlds but untitled )
Anyway I digress I have set up myself a FB page as most of the worlds shooters are on FB so it's a easy way of sharing photo's around the world for us all.
I am wanting to get some badges done for the worlds and have decided on a basic design but have no idea how to put it together so I can send it to get made.
I have a friend who's mate does all things like this and has said if I can send a image over of what I want they can just get printed straight off .

It is to be a round badge
Basically I want the camera in the background can be faded down to light grey etc.and the Lions head in front.
Ideally I would like it to say in red at the bottom WFTC 2019
and then maybe horseshoeing round the rest Pete's FT Photos maybe in Blue to indicate its FB of maybe a FB in blue in brackets.

I would be very appreciative of any help as I am at a total loss :(

One would need a high-res version of the lion graphic to begin with.

To place a faded version of the camera graphic behind it might end up with a confused result but it's worth a shot. The rest's a doddle but scale's a constraint - what's the badge diameter in mm?

I'm most definitely NOT a designer - but I've thrown the elements provided very quickly and crudely into Photoshop and formatted as you requested.

I think you may want to rethink or tweak your design, but thought a visual representation of what you asked for may be useful.

What are the badges for? If it's for ID you and your team onsite your probably better off with highvis vests with official photographer or something on them. Or proper photo ID from the organisers.

thats spot on thank you very much :D
 
I’d say not hi-res but vector. Scalable to any size without loss of detail etc.

What are you wanting the logo to say/portray? If the lion is an air rifle shooting thing, then it makes sense, otherwise, it’s a bit unclear. I’d also dump the flashgun...
 
I wonder if you ought to get their permission to use (one of) their logos/designs regardless of your being the official photographer?
BTW and completely OT, I’ve never seen such a careful and detailed description of an event venue like theirs at https://wftc2019.com/wftc-2019-schedule/. Not that I’m surprised having used some FT club facilities.

The lion is the logo/emblem being used for the worlds this year as it’s in England.

I have no problem using the logo. They are always freely adapted by all the teams and shooters around the world for team badges etc to indicate which country it was at etc.
I am actually looking forward to getting down there before the event and having a look at the facilities in person etc, unfortunately I have been too busy to go down before to help setup etc, so I will have to go a few days before to make my amendments to the course and look at the layout for the comp somewhat.
