Photography portfolio? Hey yall. My friend needs encouragement.?


Is there a source to go to for the right criteria for a photography portfolio for use in applying for jobs? As in, how many pics, how to mount, etc?

10 or 12 will be OK do not double up on a style or type of image. everything clean sharp and good colour. it has to be the best you can produce
good luck
ps
"Sucessful Self-Promotions for Photographers" Elyse Weissberg, is the best book i have too

Models carry around a book with from 10 to 20 images and tear sheets.

Photographers carry a CD with work that is similar to what the potential employer needs.

If they are approaching an ad agency, they usually leave a CD with the art director

There is a great book out there which covers portfolios

A combination of a print portfolio and a website are a good start. If you have the budget direct e-mail blasts and print promotions.
