If it is portrait photography you don't need the Macro lens, usually for portrait photography you don't want a wide angle lens either (but I'm no expert). Below a 50mm lens you can distort the picture, such as making the face look wider. You probably want a 'prime' lens. You can get a nice F2.8 50mm prime lens for usually under $200. faster lenses get more expensive of course.
