After you install a theme you may notice that a lot of the images are gone. That's because the theme designer owns the images, or rents them, and had them as examples in their design so you could see what the finished work would look like. There are a lot of marketplaces out there that you can subscribe to in order to purchase some images for your themes. Some of these platforms are pretty expensive because they charge $50 for 10 images and they could possibly cost even more than that. I use a marketplace that has 300,000 photos, less than others but better, and I can download up to 100 images every day. I think we pay $20 to $50 for this and it's come in handy more times than I can count. With this website you can even put the images into designs for clients as long as you tell the client to refer back to you if the company contacts them about copyrights. I wish I remembered the website because I would share it here.
As for building a portfolio, I tend to purchase premium themes since they're well designed and typically responsive (mobile friendly). I'll then set the theme up on it's own hosting with a dedicated IP so it has an SEO benefit. I'll set everything up in order to make money from the website and after I'm done with the set up I'll add it to my portfolio
