    WP may not be the tool for your needs, but it can be pretty fast if it's configured properly.

    - Use a good server setup. DigitalOcean has always performed great for me. I also really like Serverpilot's setup of PHP + NGNIX.
    - If you can, use a custom theme. I find the themes from Themeforest (and others) are bloated with shit you don't need, and are pretty heavy with jQuery plugins and unnecessary CSS.
    - Caching helps a lot.
    - Use a plugin like WP smush to trim down and optimize your images in a portfolio site. No need to be loading 2MB images.
