Too Many Photos!

[albear]

My Mac has become sluggish and PHOTOS keeps on freezing up. I have almost 30,000 images on the Mac so it seems that I have to get rid of them somehow to free up the Mac.
My query is; Is it better to zap them to the cloud somehow (and how?). Or, should I buy an Expansion Drive and store them on that.
I am a tour guide and lwould ike to send free albums of the tours to the participants. Can anyone recommend an EASY! system please? One which I could upload 3-400 images for a limited period so people can download to their own albums.
Many questions, but I would reallyy appreciate help from someone who knows Mac Photos.
MAC OS Sierra 10.12.6.
Thank you... Albear

Hello and welcome.

-Which exact model Mac?
-How much free space do you currently have?
-Do you have a current Time Machine or other backup of your data/photos?
-Do you have an iCloud, Google Drive, Dropbox, etc. account?

Since you are sharing the photos with customers, you could look into a photo storage/sharing service like:
-Google Photos
-SmugMug
-Photobucket
