There is a great tutorial on creating a Drupal-based photo gallery using Views and CCK in the new O'Reilly USING DRUPAL book. I'd encourage you to read it. This will help you to learn the Views module which is essential. Then you can add your lightbox and jQuery functionality later once you have the photo gallery structure configured.

Get the USING DRUPAL book - it's an excellent resource.
