In my case I have a self hosted OwnCloud setup on VPS which I use to share the photo folder (via link) and everybody can download all or selected number of images based on what they want. My friends though, usually send links from Google Drive/Dropbox to a Zip file with all the images in there. I personally do not like FB or others as they degrade the images and more importantly for privacy reasons. I hope this helps:)
