What is a good wordpress Gallery plugin with a customizable lightbox? - wordpress

I want a plugin that allows me to create a wordpress gallery:
The thumbnails should display the image's caption/title
The lightbox should display a description text. (If possible, a link/button to a contact page also).
I have explored a lot of gallery plugins but almost all have pretty basic lightboxes. I prefer not to meddle with code too much. Looking for a customizable plugin instead.

You can add a gallery with shortcode.

You can try a very Good Plugin. WordPress NextGEN Gallery Plugin.

How to create a link to a lightbox gallery popup?

I'm trying to have a normal hyperlink opening up a lightbox like gallery
The only thing I've found so far are workarounds which involve coding, but then it's not at all user friendly for my customer.
Isn't any plugin out there which provides a lightbox gallery popup as link?
If you are using wordpress theme then you can using plugin in wordpress theme.
You can follow the plugin link for Lightbox Gallery Popup
If you would be using fancybox, then it would be as easy as adding data-fancybox attribute to the trigger elements (e.g., links). Example: https://fancyapps.com/fancybox/3/#images-1

Creating a Filter system for images using NextGen Gallery for Wordpress

Using the latest version of Wordpress and NextGen Gallery plugin... I'm trying to create a filter system for the images. For instance: If you click on a link called "Vacation" all the images with the tag/alt of Vacation would appear and the rest would disappear and so on. Is there a plugin I can use or does NextGen have anything built in?
Can anyone lead me in the right direction to getting this filter going? Thank you.
This plugin works: http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/nextgen-gallery-powertags/
It's an extension for the NextGen plugin. Once activated, be sure to "Activate permalinks" in NextGen's Options first.
You can use the [nggpowertags] shortcode, which will show your gallery + clickable tag filters. Just be aware that images without tags will not show up (at least not by default). I.e, make sure all of your images are tagged.
If you don't feel like tagging all your images, you can also use the default [nggallery] shortcode and place [tagcloud] above it. This gets you roughly the same result.

Wordpress plugins for making gallery

I wish to make a gallery similar to http://welovewp.com
Can anyone guess, how this is made ?
Is there any already existing plugin or do we need to code for that ourselves.
Thanks :)
Some gallery plugins for WP:

For an extensive list of gallery plugins, try the WordPress.org plugins site:
http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/
BTW, the site you're linking to doesn't seem to be using a gallery plugin.
They're using a list of posts with a featured image and URL styled in HTML & CSS.
Indranil has given you options for generating galleries out of photos stored on your server. If your photos are stored on some photo sharing website, you'll have search for those kind of specific plugins.
For example, if your photos are stored on Flickr, you can try any of these 3 plugins -
Awesome Flickr Gallery
Slickr-Flickr
Flickr Gallery

Wordpress Gallery

This website is based on wordpress, I wonder which plugin/theme are they using to customize wordpress into a gallery/download site.
Many thanks for your help!
I think you can do this with WordPress' thumbnail feature. You can assign a thumbnail to each post. It looks like that, and some tweaking to the theme in the way the posts are displayed and the download button is included.
Maybe there's a plugin to assign a file to download on each post, that's the only part I find complex in this theme.
