The most predominant trend I'm seeing with portfolios is the layout used. Both the links/categories of the work and the images of the work itself tend to be aligned in the center of the page. The pages are streamlined and very easy to navigate and the sites themselves use dark colors. The only exception the these trends I found was with the portfolio for Breez Graphic Design Studio. Compared to the others this site was more unique with the layout of it's work and functionality.
