There's roughly one zillion choices of CMSes, but creating a structured site *MIGHT* not be what the Original Poster (whose been surprisingly quiet) asked for. I'm pretty sure I've mentioned before http://cmsmatrix.org/ which can help you find and compare a lot of features.
The original RFC stated, "The site wil mostly media -- pages with sets of photos, embedded YouTube videos, or both. The pages will have very little written content. Most or all of the images will also be posted to Instagram, Facebook, maybe Twitter, etc."
And leaves so much to be asked. "Why do you want your own site when you're going to repost it all over the internet?" "Why not just put it on Tumblr, instagram, facebook, and link from there?" "What's the key reason for having your own site: will you be modifying posts, restricting access, gathering comments, etc.?" You could post your stuff to your dropbox, your Google Drive, Flickr, your (some equivalent me-too Microsoft product) or a hundred other services out there. I'd suggest running your own server is less appropriate now than it was even a few years ago, and that there is a wide spectrum of options from installing-everything-on-bare-metal to leaving-the-driving-to-them, and it really depends on what folks need, how much control they need/want, and what they are willing to give up for convenience.
Many "photo album" packages will allow you to select a set of pictures and generate an HTML page or set of pages. Here's an ancient set done with LView Pro a decade and a half ago: http://www.tedroche.com/homepage/~tedroche/Photos/NolaPix/Index.htm
You could write your own hand-coded html: http://www.tedroche.com/homepage/~tedroche/Photos/dogz.htm (note the cool image map that links each dog to their story and changes the caption.
You could just stuff them into a web host directory and link to them directly: http://www.tedroche.com/homepage/~tedroche/Photos/FoxGangNola.gif
Or you could just tell the web server to allow an index of the folder to be browsed: http://www.tedroche.com/homepage/~tedroche/Photos/
(and a key point with these admittedly crude and old-looking pages: they are still running. How many 3rd party sharing apps have been around since 2000?)
An awful lot depends on what Ken's folks want to do, what amount of technical tweaking they're interested in doing, what they want the final product to look like, and how much effort they're willing to put in to it.

Ken,
I'm surprised that nobody's mentioned Google's blogspot (blogger.com). It's a decent free place to start.
