I think I'm going to start working on a printed portfolio ... just in case the opportunity presents itself. I have a couple questions. I tried a search of the forums, but it was fruitless:

1 - is 8x10 prints accepted as standard .... or is that newbie city? to be totally honest, knowing that this portfolio would be for "just in case", could I get away with 5x7's, or would I get laughed at by someone in the biz?

2 - do i need a model release on all images in my portfolio even though I don't intend to sell those images (although, they would classify as "advertising" I guess)?

3 - is there a "standard" material (leather, zipper, case, etc)?

Thanks all :-)

1. 8x10 is standard. I'd stay away from smaller sizes.

2. No. You don't need model releases for portfolio stuff.

3. Just as long as it looks nice, material is not a major concern.

Im anyone! I use 8x10's. I don't think you need a model release for portfolio images. Last for my "Book" I use a big portfolio case that has dual sided plastic covered pages with a zipper and I think its Faux leather!

Hope that helps!

thank you, hopper, for asking this!
I was a wee bit curious myself...
