How the portfolio reviews work

  • Registered photographers will receive portfolio reviews with their many of their top-rated art buyers/creatives, lasting 20 minutes each. Since this is a new process, we will email you the final guidelines/tips on how this will work via Zoom as the date approaches.
  • Photographers will rank reviewers on a scale of 1-10. Reviewers they most want to meet with will get a 1, then 2, 3 until 10.
  • APA Chicago will complete photographer review schedules in the order of registrations. The earlier you register for the Portfolio Reviews, the better the chance you will get many of your top selects.
