Learn how to use HTML and CSS and your use of web editors will be much easier. Visual editors are a big no-no as people are too dependent on them writing proper code from the drag and drop operations. They don't. Not even the way over priced Dreamweaver.

You want a good site for photography, then you need to learn how to use Lightbox or Shadowbox.

VisualLightBox is a free wizard program that helps you easily generate online photo albums, lightbox gallery with a nice Lightbox-style overlay effect, in a few clicks without writing a single line of code: http://lightbox2.com/lightbox2-how.html

Shadowbox (Like Lightbox): http://www.shadowbox-js.com/

I recommend a proper paid hosting service. Free sites are for noobies and totally non-professionals unless you want to just test a site online before paying.
