Background from my thread in The Darkroom: http://www.texasphotoforum.com/forum...d.php?t=105699 The Task: Produce a Professional Portfolio Just exactly how do Y'all go about producing a professional portfolio? Shall we skip ahead to the point where I have a selection of photographs. I am lost when it comes to packaging for presentation. Please share your methods with me. Products, links, methods, size of prints, etc. are all appreciated. Thank you! --------------------------- Wayne Deep in the darkest heart of the East Texas Rain forest.

Well, I love the little book you have. I have already started buying the supplies and intend on copying that. What you need to do is have your work reviewed and critiqued by smart people. Join HCP and go to some of their sessions. Or you can pay Ben. I know Ben. He is a sincere gentleman. Kevin --------------------------- Kevin C&C always appreciated. |

Thanks Kevin. I wish I could remember where we bought that album. The post binders are a pain. Otherwise, it is ok. I just figured that I needed something to hold matted prints. Oh. I should have looked further. Ben is in Dallas. Everything is in Dallas. Or Fort Worth. I'll crawl off and hide now. --------------------------- Wayne Deep in the darkest heart of the East Texas Rain forest.

HCP has thier First Tuesdays-- its free (donations accepted) and open to anyone. Lots of great info there. Look at an art supply place (Jerry's Artorama is in the Willowbrook area) for portfolios of all kinds. --------------------------- ["Life is a rush into the unknown.

There is also Texas Art Supply (who even carries 11x14 mats for 5x5 square prints) and I also find things I like and use at Archivers (Fry Rd north of I-10 in the HEB shopping center - - they are a chain). --------------------------- I welcome comments on any picture I post...

Are any of you HCP members? Do you feel it's worth it? --------------------------- Jeff Kohn | The Majestic Landscape | Blog | More Images "The capacity to compose images is really the capacity to give coherence to sensed experience" - Robert Motherwell |

I am a member and I do feel it is worth it for discounts on classes and for the contacts and resources available to me as a member. --------------------------- ["Life is a rush into the unknown.
