How To Make a Portifilo I think I read every question in here, but I can't find anywhere on how to make a portifilo? #1) Do they still make them or is it all on line now? #2) What goes in a portifilo? Can it be a mix of color and b&w pics? Does it have to have just 1 theme like all nature pics or can it be a mix of different subjects? #3) What size can the pic be? 8x10 or can they be mixed 4x6, 5x7, 8x10? Thanks, and I love this site!!!!!

I would stay with a good mix of your work. It should be 5x7 matted as 8x10 or 8x10 matted as 11x14. I would stick to 1 size thru out. I quess to decide if you need one, or if you should stay online, you should first decide who you are going to show it to. You might also start doing a search for stock companys that might buy your work online.

Thanks so much Judith. I never thought I'd be ready to be looking for stock companies. I always thought you would need years of experience first. But I think I'll start looking into it. Thanks again.

Jim Zuckerman has a great book called, "Shooting & Selling Your Photos: The Complete Guide to Making Money With Your Photography". It has a great section on building a portfolio. He uses a very simple and common sense approach that appeals to me. Hope this helps! Jerry
