This excerpt is from a post (http://www.heathermorton.ca/blog/?p=4930) she contributed to Heather Morton’s blog, HMAb, today:

“… a printed portfolio must also be a part of your marketing package. It should contain up to twenty examples of your best imagery. Pay attention to ordering and flow. You want the viewer to stop and engage with your work in a tactile, thoughtful and memorable way.”

When I think of editorial I suggest 20-25 for a weekly, 25-30 for a monthly magazine. It all depends on where you’re showing your work. But here in the US I think people look at fewer images because they are so swamped for time.
There are no set rules, so I’m sure there are other art buyers with different opinions.

In the UK at least all of the commercial portfolios I’ve seen tend to be 40-50 images – which when you’re looking through the book fells about the right number to get a proper feel for the work. Are people in the US really showing books with so few images..?
