[support] Portfolio page suggestions in Drupal 7

Hello,

I am working on a site for a client (construction) and they would like to setup a portfolio page to display some of their work. The goal is to list all the jobs he's worked on and somehow show pictures for some of the jobs. Ideally I would want the following format:

Title Description Image floating left or right of the Description

The obvious choice is some sort of image gallery, but as I am still fairly new to Drupal, I want to know if there are some better choices. If an image gallery is best, what image module would be best that I can embed a particular gallery?

Thanks for your assistance ahead of time.
