Portfolio
Last year for Professional Frameworks I decided that the best way for me to represent my work is by putting my images in a A3 size box. I am staying with idea this year as well, as I still think it looks professional and it also allows to change the images that are in the box, contrary to book, where images are printed and glued together and there is no way of changing any of them. Last year I printed my images in DS colour labs and put them into sleeves, however I noticed that due to the fact that sleeves are shiny it sometimes is hard to look at the images, you need to have a really good light to be able to see all the details that are in the prints. So even though sleeves protect the images from fingerprints, scratches and other damage they don't help to show the print quality. This year I printed images in university and used Fine Art Pinnacle matt paper. The paper feels nice and the images looks really great. Due to the fact that I am not using sleeves I put white gloves in the box.
Due to the fact that I printed images in the University and they are using roll paper, it means that images are curved, so after they were printed I kept them under a huge pile of books for a more than a week, but they still were slightly curved, so to make them flat I covered the images with a towel and ironed them. And it really helped!
Furthermore, I created some business cards, which have one of my images that is in my portfolio, so i put a couple of them inside the box too, so if person who is looking at the work liked it can take a card and keep it.
Images
I am interestend in portrait photography, I am not sure which exactly way I am going to go after I finish, so in my portfolio I decided to include different style of portraiture. During this year in university and at the end of the last year I took some nice portrait images that I decided to put in my final portfolio. That is what I included:
