Hi all!
How do you handle clients who want to see all the photos from their shoot?
We did a shoot last week for a large family and have put up 35 proofs from the 1.5 hour shoot. The mom is asking me why there's only 35... I'm assuming she's had experiences with photographers who have shown all photos taken, but we like to show only the "cream of the crop", fully processed and ready for printing.
Obviously, we had more than 35 that came out, but many were of the same pose or others were just better. I'm happy with what we've shown, but I don't know how to nicely tell her we only show the best proofs, not everything that was taken. I don't want to give her the impression these were the only ones that turned out and I certainly don't want to sound prissy. How do you handle this question?
Thanks in advance for your ideas!
