pBase looks good and offers user feedback in a blog for each defined 
collection of photos.
Coppermine also looks good
Also:
Flickr,  Webshots,  Webaperture

TikiWiki, PMWiki and Mediawiki also offer galleries and secure registered 
user uploads
You might be better off with one of these 3 wikis. PMWiki is easy to install; 
Mediawiki
is more robust (is what runs Wikipedia) and is far better at integrating 
prepared text
with pictures, not just by having a blog for each group of photos.

My recommendation out of all these options is Mediawiki.
