Why Portrait

A page with a face
and a point of view.

Creative hiring is personal. Portrait gives your photo real presence, then keeps everything else calm so it never feels like a poster.

A large portrait

The photo sits beside your name at the top. Swap it in Word or Google Docs in a few clicks, and the guide shows how.

Short, strong summary

A few lines under your contact details say what kind of work you lead.

Simple side column

Education and skills sit beside your experience, so the page reads in one pass.

What you get

Everything for one application,
and the next one.

Is it right for you?

Honest about who it suits.

A good fit if you

  • work in art direction, editorial, fashion or photography
  • have a good, recent photo you like
  • want a one-page resume with character

Look elsewhere if you

  • would rather leave the photo out (try Quiet)
  • need room for projects and numbers (try Folio)

Made for real hiring

Easy for people and for software.

Many companies run resumes through applicant tracking systems before a person sees them. Portrait is built to survive that step.

  • Text is real text, not pictures of text
  • One reading order, top to bottom within each column
  • Standard headings for each section
  • No text boxes floating over the page

Tip: apply as a PDF unless the job post asks for Word. The guide shows how to save one that keeps its text selectable.

What photo works best?

A head-and-shoulders photo with a plain background, taken in daylight. The guide shows how to crop it so your whole face shows.

What do I do after I pay?

You get an email with download links for the Word files and links to the Google Docs versions. Open one, replace the sample text with yours, and save as PDF.

What if something does not open properly?

Write to hello@vesperpaper.com. We will fix the file or refund you. Since these are digital files, we can't take them back otherwise.

Can I use it for other people or sell it?

The personal license covers your own documents. Please don't resell or share the files, or use them to make documents for clients.

a face.
