Easy way for client to add photos to a photo gallery himself? Any simple non-CMS methods?

107 views Asked by At

I'm building a website for a client and there is a page that will contain a photo gallery of around 10-20 photos. I was planning to have the client email me new photos to add to the gallery as the need arises (probably will only happen 2x a year). HOWEVER, my boss is demanding I develop some kind of method that will allow the client to easily add photos himself. Perhaps an XML method or something. Aside from a full-blown CMS, what is a very simple way for the client to add photos himself without having to rely on me to do it for him? In case this matters, I'm using Bootstrap 3 and JQuery. Any good simple solutions out there? How would YOU do it?

If you want to avoid server side scripting, you can do this very simply with the Google Fusion Tables API. You populate the gallery from the API JSON output, and your client can manage the images by adding/deleting/amending the file names, etc. in the FT. The images can be hosted anywhere online - Flickr, your web server, the client's site.
