The portfolio site of contemporary artist & photographer Branislav Kropilak has gone through a realignment as well as having two new sections of work added. The photography work is great and unlike most pretty photography portfolios, the navigation stays in one place within an entire series (i.e. no navigation buttons jumping around all over the screen). I like the fact that it is all aligned to the top left. Kind of retro, really.

Danish Lars Bech's portfolio is a Flash-folio filled with photographic candy. The prev/next navigation is a bit plain and low on usability for a site like this, but the rest of the presentation is a joy to behold. I love how large type is used.

Kimm Saatvedt is a Norwegian photographer based in Oslo, the city where I'm located as well. Several of the previous installments of his personal portfolio site have been on Styleboost before. The latest version is no different, and definitely deserves a closer look. The all flash interface works well on a 1280 pixel wide screen as well as on my personal setup, a 1920 pixel wide screen, as it scales the work to the screen size. The navigation is simple and easy to use, while at the same time doing it a little bit different from the others. A nice detail to accompany the amazing photos.

Filippa Smedhagen Sund's portfolio is, as far as I can recall, the first makeup artist's portfolio to be featured here on Styleboost. Its striking use of photography as well as the surprisingly easy to understand, yet highly experimental navigation of the site come together and combine forces for a great user experience. Slick and powerful.

Photographer Phillip Toledano's portfolio is sweet. What struck me first about this portfolio is the way it's made use of javascript instead of Flash to implement an unusual form of navigation. I'm not sure it works perfectly, but it's not far from it. I like the concept of free sideways scrolling for photos. What's more, the photos are amazing and there are some sweet wallpapers available.

Belgian photographer/director Kurt Stallaert's excellent portfolio sadly makes use of a fullscreen popup to show off his top notch work. It even tries to force a fullscreen popup on its visitors. I'm sure this is going to leave many potential fans leaving before they even take a look at what he's capable of creating. Too bad.

The portfolio of product designers Lucy Nunn and Tobie Snowdowne is quite a gem. On first view I found it to be a bit plain but elegant. On a closer look, however, I came to notice how well the product designs were being displayed. The design of the site is centered around the tasty product shots. It's classic, beautiful and functional enough, even though its all done in Flash.

This site features one of the best and most intuitive navigation interfaces that I've ever encountered in a photographer's flashfolio. On top of that, the site is crisp, the photos are fresh and the text is perfectly sized to read. This is top notch work.

Even though the site malfunctions and hides the navigation about every second time I load it, the look and feel is good enough to recommend a closer look. Nice work on display, too.

Norwegian photographer Arild Danielsen is very good at what he does. His site accentuates his photos beautifully. I love the way he uses the 'loading' image backgrounds. I might even steal that effect for a site I'm working on. Good stuff!
