Recently I have been putting together a new portfolio book, most of the time I show my wedding photography portfolio on my Laptop, iPad, or through the use of wedding albums. However I have also in the past kept a small portfolio book of recent work over the previous 6-12 months, but never solely wedding based and certainly haven’t produced one in the last 12 months.
Which brings me on to these new ‘Wedding Photography by Barney Walters‘ books, they are small, light and only contain about 50 pictures over 20 double page spreads, but they are what I see as an extension of a business card. They are relatively inexpensive to make in comparison to the hard back 12″ square books I produce for my wedding clients, and are more similar to the parent books I produce, with about the half the amount of pages.
The resulting product is a collection of images and words about my wedding photography for me to be able quickly back up whatever I’m talking about, wherever I am. The books will also be left at a couple of chosen wedding venues around my more local area, so if you are starting to look at venues then keep your eyes pealed for one. Alternatively they can be used to send to potential clients who live a little further afield, enquires that come from the North of England, Scotland and mainland Europe for example.
Here I have included a few pictures of my almost finished mini portfolio book for 2012, these are my two final samples before getting a batch made. If you are interested in getting your hands on one to have a flick through and learning a little more about the style and methods behind the pictures then please contact me here.
Hope you like.
