Images in a database

So basically I am designing a database which lists a client_name, client_description, and then a list of images associated with that particular client. This is all stored in a MySQL database. I am not sure how to handle the images though. Each client will have around 6 images. I currently have it set up where every client has its own folder of images and the PHP just reads every image from that folder and displays it.
Would it be a better idea in terms of best practices to instead have an Images Table that keeps track of every image and what client it is associated with?
Not sure, Mike
