Wordpress
Wordpress is excellent, but like a lot of things over time it's got a bit complicated, and I don't know about anyone else, but I find the instructions all a bit mystifying for the noob.
I set up a couple with Blogger, matched the template to the rest of the site (OK in fact I did the template first and then matched the rest of the site to it). It's still sitting on Blogger's own servers but it was a very simple thing to link it from the rest of the site, and Blogger do seem provide more support for the dummy that is me. Your photos get hosted with Picassa, which you've possibly already got and you can log in with your Google account, which I'm guessing you've already got too. And I've never seen anything there about copyright belonging to them, or Google, or anyone but yourself.
I don't know about Wordpress, but Blogger also allows you to e-mail in your blog, complete with pictures, which I find excedingly handy if you've got limited access to the net. right down to the fact that I have in the past posted to my personal blog from my cellphone, complete with pictures, and never even needed to find an internet café or free wifi, just a GPRS signal.
Just thought I'd post an option for the less-computer literate.
