What drives the number

How to deliver it

  1. Put the count in the package

    State the number of edited or retouched photos in the package details, so the client knows what arrives before the session.

  2. Upload your exported JPEGs

    Export your finished photos, upload them to a new gallery draft, and review the files before making the gallery live.

  3. Enable proofing for selections

    If your package allows clients to select their retouched images, turn on photo proofing to set a maximum pick count and an optional per-photo price for extras.

  4. Publish and send one link

    Publish your gallery to generate a single unlisted link where your client can review 2000 px previews and download the original files one at a time or as one ZIP.

Common questions

Is 20 photos enough for a 1-hour session?

It sits inside the published range. Petruzzo Photography produces between 20 and 60 finished images per hour, per photographer, Stacie Stine's 1-hour session includes 15 edited images and Janessa-Nicole's 1-hour family session 20+. At about 8 MB per JPEG, 20 photos take 0.16 GB. For longer bookings, see how many photos for a 2-hour shoot.

How many photos come from a 1-hour headshot session?

Published headshot packages include 1 to 5 retouched images. Headshots NYC includes 2 in its 60-minute session, PhotosbyMichel 4 and Studio Popcorn 5, and Adi Ringer Headshot Photography includes 1 in a session of under an hour. Each retouched frame takes editing time, so extra frames are sold one by one.

Should I charge for extra photos?

Many published packages do. PhotosbyMichel and Studio Popcorn charge $50 for each extra retouched headshot, and Stacie Stine offers extra edited images at $15 a photo. With photo proofing on shoots.page you set a per-photo price for picks above the maximum and the client sees the running total; the payment is settled between you and the client, because shoots.page never collects it.

How many 1-hour sessions fit on the free plan?

At about 8 MB per JPEG, the free 2 GB holds about 250 photos across your live galleries. That is five family sessions of 50 photos (2.0 GB), sixteen portrait sessions of 15 photos (1.92 GB) or fifty 5-photo headshot sets (2.0 GB). Deleting an old gallery frees its storage after cleanup, and Pro raises the limit to 100 GB.

Can the client choose which photos get retouched?

Yes. Upload the proofs, turn on proofing and set the maximum picks to the number of retouched photos in the package; the default is 25 and it goes up to 1,000. The client stars favorites with a live count against the maximum, submits with a name and email, and the selection locks until you reopen it. Then retouch the picks and deliver them as the final gallery.

Deliver your next 1-hour shoot

Upload the finished photos to shoots.page and send the client one unlisted link they open without an account. A 1-hour set of up to 75 photos takes about 0.6 GB of the free 2 GB.
