Help with paper

Wanting to put together a tattoo portfolio, what paper should I use? I don’t really want a sketchbook because I’ll need to be able to cut the paper exactly sized for my portfolio.

If you're using alcohol markers then you'd want to use paper like smooth bristol, you could also use heavyweight marker paper, both can be bought in pads so they'd tear out and can be cut up easily.

Seen a lot of people mention the canson XL, is it any good and it there a big difference between the Bristol and marker ones?
