What's wrong with ElkArte? I post photo stories all the time on my forum. There's a blogish front end that no one uses as well that posts just the first post that contains the story. Replies are just normal elkarte replies. Also made custom index pages to list the stories in chronological order of creation rather than last comment.

I don't think there will be much commentaries or discussions so I never thought of a forum software for this. Can you show your board please so I get a feeling for it?

If you want something to do and learn, do it yourself. If it were me, I would go with a WP install to get going quickly.

My site is now dead.... The front page is the blog but it's all powered by elkarte behind the scenes. I started with WordPress but quickly got tired of the constant stream of updates for security and bug fixes. Plus I found the interaction to be a fun part of the stories so I wanted to add a forum and the bridges just weren't seamless enough. So I converted the blog first to smf then elkarte. ETA: Site is no more.
