I have a Wordpress site and recently ran into the problem of having too many images for my hosting services. But my job involves photography, so I was wondering where a good starting point would be to set up a physical server in my home to host all my photos for my website on Wordpress. Is that possible? I don't know where to begin with searching either.

An S3 bucket won’t have a hard cap. You pay a small amount monthly based on how much storage you use. Here’s a good guide I found: https://pawlean.com/2020/07/15/how-i-use-aws-s3-to-host-images-on-my-blog/
