Using a scrapbook to make a photo portfolio

Jul 18, 2003 2 Replies

Hi, everyone,



I've been a lurker here for a few days, and I think maybe you can help me out.



I'm really interested in photography, although I really just started. I don't develop my own pics yet, just take them.



Right now my field of study is close-up. I'm looking for some 7x7 layouts to use in a black album w/ black paper or white paper to highlight pictures, mostly of flowers for now. The pics are in color, and obviously they're not all the SAME color, so mostly I want metric ideas, because color schemes will have to be improvised on a case-by-case. Any suggestions or original layouts you want to share? I'd really appreciate the help.



Thanks!



Stephen



PS - PLEASE! Do not post anything that was supposed to be for your eyes only in response to this post. My wife's a CM consultant and she gets layouts all the time that the creators don't want on sites like this. (btw, they're all good, but often too sentimental in nature for a portfolio type book.) Please don't break any type of trust just for this request. Thanks!


I don't have any layouts of flowers to share but a mosaic layout comes to mind. You can use you wives square punch to make it.

I know of lots of teachers and several photographers that use a "scrap" style for a portfolio... Personally.. I LOVE IT rather then the old style! Shows you love what your doing.. not just showing what you do
