Having your portfolio showing flat versions of your best work can many times become very boring to the person viewing it. Especially if you are looking to impress a new client or employer.
A great (and easy) solution is to take photographs of your work. You don’t need to have a professional camera. You can use any camera (even the iPhone camera does a good job!) and modify your image in Photoshop for that professional look.
If by any chance, your project did not get printed, or was an online version only, I would recommend for your to print it on your home printer and then take a picture of it. It does sound like a lot of work, but trust me, you will be impressed with the final results.
Don’t want to photograph or print your files? Another great solution is to mock-up your designs in Photoshop. How? Using blank templates. Graphicriver offers a great variety of templates for a very affordable price. You can also find free templates all of the web.
You can also find many PSD templates on this blog free for download. Many of these templates I used on my personal portfolio.
