Photo gallery for a site with a long photo description?

Question

css

you need to upload a photo gallery to the site, such as a lightbox - so that there is a grid of previews, and when you click, a photo opens in a large size. BUT - each photo should have a solid description, 10-15 lines, with headings, paragraphs, etc. (in fact there is a summary).
there were thoughts not to mess with jQuery at all and she would stupidly create html pages for each applicant, but the customer does not like this option, because. it is inconvenient to add people - you need to add a photo to the grid, and start a page on it, and then link it all with links.
Can anyone suggest a more or less convenient solution? lightboxes and PrettyPhotos do not allow writing long descriptions, where text can only be put in alt, and there are no paragraphs, no headings ... but I need a full-fledged page to open when clicked.
Thanks to everyone who read and decide and respond.)
