I am often asked this question, "How many photographs will be there in a Portfolio?"
"well", I reply, "there are no restrictions on the number of Photographs as such, It's all about the number of looks. a portfolio with about 5 looks is good enough and works for all"
"Just 5 Images ?" .......
Let me explain the difference between the number of photographs and the number of looks.
When any good professional photographer shoots, he or she does not shoot just one photograph to get one final photograph. One needs to take a number of photographs to get the one, the photographer is looking for. Well, it does not mean that it's a hit and trial method. It's all about how you look at a person. The aspiring model in front of the camera needs to be shot in such a manner that it enhances her or his looks, beauty and personality as the case may be. The whole exercise is gradually build up to achieve the desired results. As you look through the camera, directing the model, you take a picture or two to further direct the model and continue to improve the posture, expressions and the overall performance of the model, who may be facing the camera for the first time.
