The fact that your name is Patience made me read your post like 3 times to make sure you weren't my sister in law.

do you have any art/craft supple stores near you? if so, you may want to check those out, you can probably find a relatively cheap portfolio there

I just went to IMATS ( International Makeup Artists Trade Show) in Pasadena and in one of the seminars I went to,the artist said it was a good idea to do your portfolio both in book form and CD. She said it was becoming the wave of the future.She also said to have no less than 20 photos but preferably at least 40 photos. She also said put in pictures of everything you can do and don't put anything in there that you do not want to do.HTH

In your portfolio, you should include many looks. No one wants to see a book of the same looks from different angles.Do not have any looks in your book that you do not want to do. Someone who looks at your portfolio is going to assume you enjoy doing all the looks you have in your book. Most of all have fun!!!HTH
