Q: Share iPhoto with Family

When we first got our iMac we wanted to have a single instance of iPhoto that my wife and I could share.  I put the iPhoto library in the shared directory and seeing as it is a single computer there was little risk of us both trying to access it at the same time.  Now when the other wants to access it, all the permissions need to be switched over - this clearly isn't ideal.  Now we not only have the iMac but we have multiple laptops.  With iCloud functionality being able to help us sync, I'm wondering the best way to have one person be the owner of the existing iPhoto library and then have each family member have their own iPhoto instance/library and use iCloud so that we can share each other's iPhoto media.  What is the best way to do this?  Does iCloud also share videos?  Thanks for any feedback...
