Slideroom portfolio format

I was thinking I would make a pdf for my portfolio, where it’s actually a powerpoint presentation but downloaded as a pdf. About 8 to 10 slides. It would give a general overview of all my projects and so on, so like 2 slides for this project with some images, 2 for the next, etc… But then I looked at Slideroom and it wants me to upload 25 images. Can I still do my powerpoint pdf? Or do I have to completely reformat my portfolio? What do I put in the image captions?
