What's the least expensive web photo gallery?

[paytonphoto]

I currently use pictage and I feel with the monthly fees and the price gouging they do on the sales is too much. Im looking to post my wedding gallery's with another company. I would like to sell the prints and not give the majority of the profit to the web gallery company. Does anyone have a better solution?

zenfolio has been wonderful for me

Zenfolio | hosting service for photo galleries | a place to learn and enjoy photography

Another vote for Zenfolio. I love that they use MPIX for print fulfillment.

Vast Majority of Artists - no matter what kind - are in the same boat as you.
You can make own online gallery w/ HTML and host a website for as low as $10/ month + internet fees but most will still not see real meaningful gains.
The market is supersaturated and the only thing you can do about it is ...
get a real job that pays well and use it to support your PT photo biz.
Thats what most successful photographers do{including some very well know types on the 20th Century}.
A few others own their own physical gallery {but most opperate a storefront at a loss}.

I do that already... It just seems a bummer I book the gig shoot hand them the business and they make half the profit if not more.

If you just want to show your images Smug mug (its free). If you decide to sell you can upgrade.

Don't think Smugmug is free anymore. For a pro account (ability to set your own prices) it is $150/year. And you get unlimited storage. They take 15% fee for order fulfillment, which is very much worth it to me. I've been with them going on 6 years and love it.

Flickr if you lazy, and if not - own hosting (few bucks a month) + coppermine (free) gallery script installed.

i use studiocloud's ordering gallery. i can self-fulfill orders, but its $45 a month. can be iframed too so i stick it within a page on my wordpress site and its seamless. clients think its pretty.

plus it lets clients pay you via paypal. get a paypal debit card (acts like a checkcard from your bank) = instant ability to use your funds with no wait, as soon as an order is placed.
