You have 10 years experience, really?

I think the work looks good but don't think it's displayed well enough to show it off properly, I'd like to see the images go full width and the explanation of them go smaller, and perhaps underneath

great work...

i'd give each project way more respect if these are real.
ok, yes i see 4 images per project, but for the most part they're all the same image and you don't show me anything new.
and that type thing, the personal project, is the odd ball out. i'd delete it. it's not professional and really throws me off, personally.

One Page scroll down portfolios is sooo 2010
Needs more FlashHow dare you include Dreamweaver in your Resume and leave off Flash? I guess you don't plan on getting a lot job calls in the future.

Nice work.
Its very img based, which is probably ok if your not trying to get web or SEO work.
Bookmarked.

Re-photograph the magazine, brochure, and paint cans. Make the photography style and quality consistent. The backdrops should be the same; a white seamless would do fine.

For someone with 10 years of experience, I expected to see more of a niche or specialty beginning to form. In this case, since you're working in print, web, and packaging, a target market or specific style would help. I agree that the quality of the individual design projects are good, but a freelancer needs to do a better job at selling his wares.
More space would help the viewer appreciate the work better. You're selling each project short by cropping them and jamming them in small spaces. Especially the print and packaging work.
And I would replace the school typography project.

can you design my website?

This is a perfect example of how the work speaks for itself. Amazing.
On the other hand, the portfolio site is too simple, almost "safe".
The balloon information page is very static. A little Flash here and there would have done the trick.

are you a student?
- I would assume so. Pretty un-polished and un-refined work. To be honest a lot of students are doing much better.MarleyMarl
- Students aren't encumbered by the wants of corporate clients. Post some work and show him how it's done.ben_
- There are plenty examples out there of how it's done. This guys work definitely isn't.MarleyMarl

Are you guys serious with these comments? I have heard you tear down better work then this.
• The work is clumped together. the spacing is horrible.
Not a fan of those Paint Cans or whatever they are.
