That's not true. I've seen a trend towards electronic portfolios lately. Besides, almost all photographers have websites with their work on them, no? Sales of physical portfolios have dropped this past year. My personal preference is a (well) printed portfolio though, as it looks more professional. Unfortunately, the younger photographers who have grown up in the digital age don't really appreciate or care. I've already been asked by professional clients when we'll be getting stock of the iPad.

Having said that, sales of our professional wedding albums and studio samples that wedding photographers keep as portfolios in their studio have gone up.
