Behind the ‘Book

In early 2008 four brothers put their creative minds together to develop and launch the innovative online portfolio service, viewbook.com. Designed as an online service to help members of the creative industries upload, organize and present their work, Viewbook was immediately embraced by the creative community, and built up an enthusiastic following during its beta period. Today the application helps more than 20.000 creatives to present and deliver their work simply and with style.

Viewbook is a privately-held company founded in Rotterdam, the Netherlands by the four Swagerman brothers. The four brothers – Rien, Alrik, Paul and Rudin are all professionally active in the field of design, web-development and photography. Dissatisfied with the available crop of online image presentation services, the four put their creative minds together and came up with the Viewbook concept.

In the coming months, more new features are planned, such as plug-ins for use with Adobe Lightroom2 and Apple Aperture.
