Portfolio Book Arrive.

Wanted to have my own Printed Portfolio Book for almost a year but hesitate for a year because I am very bad in choosing an image that can match with what I do.

After discussing with a few buddies on the net all over the globe who’s expert in photo editor or photo consulting field. With their advise and a few trust I give it a try.
It takes about 3 months for me to choose thousand of photographs, then tone it down all the way to 400+ of photographs.
And last month, from 400+ to 100 photographs and out of 100 photographs I kept on changing which one should I print it and merge the image together side by side.

To be honest..
Am still very bad at it.

But since I’m already chose 27 photographs for 2011 Photo Portfolio that I feel it represents me.

I upload the template and straight away checkout and wait for 1 month to arrive.

A month later… The first book that they send has an error and I wrote a complain letter to them and they reprint it for me without any charge.
Wait for another week and My Newly fresh Photo Portfolio book arrive.

Didnt do much a lot on designing and only play with typography and inside of my Portfolio are purely Photograph without any written text.

Hey it’s not a photobook! It’s a Portfolio of me showing to potential client/photo agency.

Am happy with the result. It’s a not bad Portfolio book for the first time.
Hopefully next year or in 2 years building more network and getting more photo shoot. I am able to create stronger photograph to update my Photo Portfolio for 2012 or 2013.
