Portfolios


  • Master doc ind
  • element that is worthwhile - archiving of project 
  • consider photos - taking photography serious 
  • every project has to be to a high standard
  • commission.studio
  • if a final outcome is weak, go back, fix or extend it 
  • your portfolio is only as good as your weakest project 
  • give context
  • be honest about level of involvement in project
  • choice of type - personal branding
  • less is more - images tell the story 
  • include contact details - phone no, email...
  • sort your master doc into categories 
  • try to show something new/different in each project 
  • establish a consistent tone of voice
  • back up as you go
  • work with photography students 
  • documentation of work is even more important than the work itself 
  • export at less than 4mb
  • pick 4/5 projects to clients
  • a week follow up
  • SNASK - based in Stockholm, Sweden - internship scheme 
Which projects to get rid of
Only high standard ones 
need to focus on documentation and photography in process
re print things - higher standard or re design in a day
client briefs or intitiated, freelance - shows more drive, all rounder
mix of outcomes and sectors
only show a couple of main ones
a range of print, scanned, digital etc - playful
find a photographer with a conceptual thinking
