To service the uploaded files need a helper function, where /media/ your settings app.config['MEDIA_URL']:

from flask import send_from_directory

@app.route('/media/<regex("([\w\d_/-]+)?.(?:jpe?g|gif|png)"):filename>')
def media_file(filename):
    return send_from_directory(app.config['MEDIA_THUMBNAIL_FOLDER'], filename)
