In case you missed APG's standing-room-only discussion with Danielle Avram on building a portfolio, you can find a detailed recap by APG member Richard Ediger on randomradiance.com.
"Some of us consider ourselves emerging photographers. As such we should have two priorities: 1) get good, and 2) get known. If you were among those gathered for the Atlanta Photography Group's Speaking of Photography discussion with Danielle Avram on "Building a Portfolio" on March 16, you heard about one of the prime ways to achieve both these goals."--Richard Ediger
