Share photos and videos using other apps and websites
You can easily share your photos and videos to a third-party website by adding an extension for the site to your Share menu.
When you open the Share menu, you see a list of extensions that Photos already uses. To share using other apps, you can download the apps (and their sharing extensions) from the Mac App Store, then add the extensions to the Share menu.

Click Library in the sidebar, then select the photos and videos you want to share.
Click
In Login Items & Extensions settings, turn on each extension you want to add to the Share menu.
Click Done.
After adding the extension to the Share menu, you can select photos and share them with the third-party app or website.
