If I wanted to create a logo for a client, I would choose illustrator over photoshop.
If the client has experience in illustrator, he will tell me what I should improve on. The quality of a vector logo stays intact when zooming in or out. The quality of a photo changes when zooming in or out because the fixed number of pixels. In illustrator, altering an object affects the whole object. In photoshop, you can only alter the pixels in the photo. A logo in vector form would take less space than a picture. A logo that has less megabytes can easily go through a file sharing service. If the client wanted a minimalistic logo, illustrator would be fit for the job. Minimalistic logos are often used today because it’s much easier to get the person’s attention. In the early days, icons and logos were in third dimension and almost looked realistic. A printed vector logo keeps its quality while a printed raster logo mirrors the resolution of the logo. A vector object can be any object and can be front or back of another object. In photoshop, you can only deal with a rectangle.
