To be honest I don't recommend running an image resizing script on a shared host as you will end up using a lot of CPU and RAM, especially for photographers as they tend to upload HUGE images. Look for either Semi-Dedicated, a VPS, or Dedicated Server.

Make sure the host you choose has the proper components for image resizing such as ASPJPEG.
