Hey, nice! With iPhoto or Aperture (Mac only) it’s also really easy to make a portfolio, and they also look fantastic!

If you like photography books go to ebay and type in Hastings Beautiful Town, it’s excellent!

Thanks for your comprehensive explanations!

Little bit off topic: The first photographer I’ve seen on youtube who has presented his video in a visually pleasant manner. I’ve always wondered why they did not put more effort into that.

I carry my Portfolio which is Brown leather with rings to hold the acid free sheets which hold the Photo’s. The Portfolio itself is open however it fits nicely into a Brown Leather briefcase to carry into clients and Art Directors offices.
I’m a little weary of yours because the edges of the pics curl up and are not held onto the backings properly like they would be if you used clear vinyl covers.
