However, I'd like to share some thoughts about the approach. Which photos you want (or don't want) to include depends on the purpose of the portfolio. It is like with your resume (or CV): if you are applying for a job it would be of one kind (and then it could be considerably different for different jobs). If that is for introducing you at an event or for a publication, - it would be very-very different. The same with the portfolio. I can see a few possible reasons for that portfolio: 1. To introduce who you are as a photographer. 2. To solicit photo jobs/assignments (then it would depend on what type of work/genre you want). 3. To have it just as an exhibit of your work (like something you'd exhibit at a gallery). 4. ... ? Defining that would help people (and yourself) determining which photos to keep. The portfolio is an Itoya 13x19 art portfolio: https://www.bhphotovideo.com/c/search?Ntt=Itoya+Art+Profolio+13x19&gclid=CJ28mtHn284CFU6BfgodPSAMPw&c3api=4680%2C111336988859%2Citoya+art+profolio+13x19%2Ce&InitialSearch=yes&N=0 I tend to keep in the trunk of my car to show off my work. When I have something new that I really like, I try to remove the weakest photos and replace them with new and better stuff. I also will often to let someone pick a print as a gift. It seems to make people happy when I do that. So, in short the goal of the portfolio is to show off the range of my work, and it tends to be a mixture of my best work and my most recent work. If I were to do a show, it would probably be a subset of the images in it. (Sorry, I won't be able to "vote" myself, as I do not have active FB presence.) It has been interesting to watch the "voting" process. The photos that I think are the best aren't necessarily the ones that get the most likes. There are a few photos where the number of likes seems to be bumped up because the photo is of someone with a lot of friends, who may not even be looking at other photos in the album.

PESO - smoke break
I finally broke a two month hiatus and had a studio shoot with the very talented and beautiful Camille yesterday. The shoot's unofficial theme was "natural woman" -- unaffected, candid, unposed looks -- and so I made a point of following Camille down to the parking lot during her smoke breaks.
