How Many Photos Do I Take During a Session? You Might Be Surprised!

Ever wonder just how many pictures I take during a session? The answer: A LOT! 🤣

Photography isn’t just about snapping a few pictures and calling it a day—it’s about capturing those fleeting moments that tell your unique story. To make sure I don’t miss a thing, I take hundreds of photos during each session. For a petite session, I usually shoot around 700 images, and for a full session, that number can climb to 1,500 or more!

You might be thinking, Why so many? Well, every session is filled with movement, laughter, and spontaneous interactions, and I want to ensure I capture all the magic. I take multiple shots to get the perfect expressions, the sharpest focus, and those heartwarming family connections that you’ll cherish forever.

You have control over which images you’d like to keep, print, and share.

Once the session is over, my work is just beginning. I carefully go through each image, selecting the best of the best—the ones where everyone’s eyes are open, smiles are genuine, and the moment just feels right. This culling process ensures that you receive only the highest-quality images.

After narrowing them down, I create a proofing gallery, where you get to pick your favorites!  I’ll send about 40 images for a petite session and around 100 for a full. This way, you have control over which images you’d like to keep, print, and share. It’s all part of the process of delivering a final collection of images that truly reflect the joy and connection of your session. So, next time you wonder just how many photos I take—just know, I take plenty to make sure your memories are captured beautifully! 📸✨
