Riga, Latvia, November 6, 2026 — Pro Portfolio, a free international portfolio platform for creative professionals, has launched in six languages, opening with a competition calendar listing 25 active international photography competitions and a combined prize fund of more than €60,000.
Created by Latvian photographer Andrejs Zavadskis, the platform gives photographers, videographers, models, stylists, make-up artists and studios a place to present their work and connect with clients. It catalogs more than 10 creative professions and is available in English, Spanish, Portuguese, French, German and Russian.
“I'm a photographer myself, and I kept seeing the same thing: our work is beautiful, but invisible,” says Zavadskis. “I wanted a place where a creative uploads their work once, and from then on the platform does the work for them.” Zavadskis has more than 20 years of experience in portrait, event and commercial photography.
Each portfolio image receives a public page with a title, creator, category and description. The platform creates image descriptions, maintains an image sitemap and publishes structured information about authorship and copyright, helping search engines surface creative work.
Pro Portfolio also brings practical resources together for its members. Creatives can browse the calendar of international photography competitions, track portfolio activity and use tools for estimating project costs, preparing quotes, managing contracts and invoices, and communicating with clients. The platform's tools are unlocked through points earned by participating and sharing work. A community area includes a forum, job offers, classifieds and a feed of members' latest projects.
The competition calendar presents deadlines, reminders and participation requirements, including whether each competition is open worldwide. Members can review statistics on portfolio visits, viewers' countries and activity from search and AI systems. According to the company, featured placement and client tools are earned through activity such as publishing work, reviews and community participation.
The platform is designed for both established professionals and people starting out, as well as clients, agencies and editorial teams looking for creatives by profession, location and style. Zavadskis says the project grew from his own experience of the time and effort it takes to keep a portfolio current and reach new clients. The goal is to help creative professionals keep a lasting, searchable record of their work and reach prospective clients directly.
