I recently did a wedding and have posted the client a USB drive, but she lives in Germany and hasn’t received it. Is there a free service that I can upload all her wedding photos to to let her download them? I have a free dropbox account, but it’s full of stuff and don’t have enough storage. Can I put all the photos – approx. 480ish so maybe 4-5gb into a single zip file?
 
Don't know if you use it but as part of my MS Office subscription I get a load of storage on OneDrive. I usually use that when I have large zip files of photos. Otherwise you could split them up into smaller files and send for free on WeTransfer. I think 2GB is their max file size for free.
 
We transfer has a limit for free transfers of 2Gb. However you could split the images into 3 files and send that way. From experience though the free service does take a while to upload. Haven't used it for a while as I use DropBox
 
Google Drive has 15Gb free, and 100Gb is only $1.99/month. From memory you can buy it a month at a time, pay for the upgrade and cancel/downgrade any time you like. Folders can be shared individually.

But Dropbox is one of the easiest to manage for doing this type of thing, a much easier interface to control sharing options.
 
Thanks, this is only a one off, She never told me she lived in Germany, I had dealt with her locally and wanted to meet her to give her photos to her but she then told me she lives in Berlin!!!

Just checked google drive, so I have 10Gb free, so is it just a matter of uploading a zip file to that and sharing the link?
