so.....i am doing four runway shows in the next two months....i am obviously going to end up with a bunch of images from those...
my question is this: how much of a priority should i give those in my portflio? do photographers like seeing those? i am certainly going to include at least one, but should i do more than that?

I've found that clients like to see them but not full size prints in your book. I made a collage of a bunch of small runway shots and behind the scenes type shots and put it in the back page of my book, and people like to look at them after seeing all of my more professional photos, plus it lets them know that you work a lot. As far as online, I have one runway shot up, but I wouldnt put any more, cuz the non-runway ones are usually better photographs overall anyways. just my opinion though :p

oh and good luck with your shows! smile
