Upload to where? If you're uploading to a hosting site from a computer you don't need an app. If you're uploading photos from your phone, it's not likely they'll be anything anyone is going to want to buy.

Are you asking for a portal that allows you to display lower res versions and have consumers purchase and get prints or high res images from you?

^^^ What he said.

If you are looking for a hosting site that sells look at:
Fine Art America
Zenfolio
SmugMug
Photoshelter
500px

If you are looking for an 'app' then usually they accept ftp so something like Filezilla will be fine.

Zenfolio is excellent for that. It has a lot of features built in designed for wedding and event photographers. For example if you shoot an event you can setup a gallery that holds those shots, pass out cards at the event with the gallery name and password on it. You don't need to know the people involved and all they need to do is go to the gallery marked "November 15th Soccer Game" or whatever. Zenfolio handles payment, printing and delivery through several different labs.
