hi all

i have been asked to produce a portfolio for admission on to a foundation photography course, my question is whats in a portfolio? i presume a selection of photos from certain areas eg landscape, portrait etc. should there be and writing? what size is the ideal size? i was thinking A3? also where is a good place to get prints done size A3 or bigger?

thanks

All your best work, nicely presented.

A4 should be fine, A3 is pretty big.
 
I agree with 8utters, an A4 portfolio is much easier to pass between a selection panel.
A good portfolio case is a must and be brutal in what you include. I'd say a maximum of 20-25 images and good quality prints make a big difference.
