As a designer, building up your portfolio and displaying your work correctly is almost as important as the work you create itself. Just like for an e-commerce store, the success portfolio website relies on many factors: good UI, readable typography, harmonious colors, and many others.

One important factor that is often overlooked is the quality of the images used. As you know if you already tried taking photos of your work, photography is the work of professionals, and it’s hard to get a good picture, until you spend time on it.

Placeit: print product mockups made easy, no Photoshop needed!

With Placeit, you can create quick mockups for pretty much any kind of design you create. Corporate identity mockup, business card mockup, wine label mockup, poster mockup, coffee cup mockup, badge mockup,… and so much more. Apart from the ease-of-use, the number of mockups available is probably the most amazing feature of Placeit. Even better, you can make request for a stage by email. Placeit also keeps adding new mockups every day, so you can work with them on the long term and you won’t need to use the same stages over and over.

How to use Placeit

I already mention above that Placeit is incredibly easy to use, but how does it work exactly? Let’s see…

First, you’ll need to find the right stage for your product. Placeit has stages for all kinds of platforms and devices, like iPad, iPhones, and apparel, but for the sake of simplicity, we’ll focus on print-related items. On the left hand side of the screen, you’ll find all the filters to find what you need. If you select business cards for example, you’ll see that there are more than enough mockups to choose from.

Photorealistic mockups created in seconds

Once you have selected the one that fits your need, just upload it to Placeit and it will do its magic. Upload finished? Voilà, you have your mockup and you’re ready to go.

How about the price?

Placeit’s pricing is pretty simple, it starts with free for all small image sizes. For larger sizes, it’s still very reasonable when you think about the time saved to create the mockups. One high-resolution image created costs only $8, and it can get much cheaper if you are a frequent user and try the subscriptions. If you don’t have PayPal don’t worry, there is a variety of payment options available.
