Put the iphoto library on a directly connected external hard drive formatted Mac OS extended (journaled) with ownership ignored - iPhoto: Sharing libraries among multiple users - Apple Support

Thanks Larry HN. I have a laptop and connecting an external drive would be too cumbersome. I wish their was some other way.

You could share all photos you want others to see as Shared Photo Streams. You can have up to 100 shared photo streams.
See: iCloud: iCloud Photo Sharing FAQ

Just don't upload all photos at once, see: iCloud: Photo Stream limits
