My wife is using Google Photos, and I’ve been using Photoprism for a few months. I just had a baby, and I access to download the pictures that my wife takes. I’m not too sure of what I want. I guess I want two separate libraries, but I want to be able to view her pictures easily and add them into my library. I believe if I spin up a second photoprism instance, I’d have to download her pictures individually and reupload them into my instance.

What do any of you do? Do you even host photo storage for your family?

    For your use case I would definitely recommend Immich. It has a “partner sharing” feature that allows you to view your partners photos from your account while still maintaining separate archives. You can then download or add to albums from there. Immich has been fantastic for my family because it supports android and iOS (being as I can’t get some members off Apple products.)

    Here’s the description of the feature. Sorry it’s a Reddit post, that’s the only place I could find the developers summary of the update.
