I'm working on my *actual* porfolio (not online) and I want to include some packaging work i have done. i have worked on a lot of Nutritional Supplements, protein bars, etc. many of them are large and bulky. What's the best way to include this work? Just place flat labels in my portfolio? Lug around actual product? Any advice would be great. Thanks.

Can you photograph them? Think that's pretty common for product.

Yeah, i really wish i could. I know that's ideal, but i only have a really shitty digital camera. Right now I have no high quality photos of the products at all. Sucks.

Has anyone else done this without photography?

You could just place the flat labels in your portfolio. But I have found that sometimes this looks a little messy. Photos really are the best way to go. Do you know any one with a halfway decent camera?

photography really is the way to go :( but i have seen people liek make a fake comp of them in illustrator - or can you pshop them onto an existing stock photo?

Go to Best Buy and get a decent camera...shoot the shots. Return the camera. :)
