How Many Wedding Photos Is Too Many?
Let me tell you from personal experience, you do not want 2,000 photos to sift through when selecting your favorites. What is someone going to do with 2,000 photos anyway? I’ve found that anything over 1,000 images starts to become a little cumbersome for my clients, so yeah, 2,000 is definitely way out of the question.

How Many Wedding Photos Do We Get? | Quality Is Number One
Ultimately, my goal is to deliver you the best of the best from your wedding day. As cliche as it sounds, it’s true. Quality over quantity. Anybody could come into a wedding and shoot 2,000 photos and call it a day. When hiring a professional wedding photographer in Colorado, you’re going to want someone who photographs with a little more intent than that.
Truly unique wedding photos may take a bit of time to set up depending on required lighting set-up, posing, test shots, etc. These are the skills provided to you when hiring a professional. Otherwise, you receive photos you’ve seen 1,000 times before.
Allowing your photographer the time to setup their equipment can result in a stunning image.
How Many Of The Photos Are Edited?
All of the images I deliver are edited and presented exactly as I intend them to look. There are no unedited images delivered in your gallery. This is another aspect of your photos that you are entrusting unto me when you pick me to be your wedding photographer. I have spent years developing and perfecting a style that you see in my images here on my website. I aim to keep a consistent, modern look to my photos, and that will be no different for your wedding.
