Additional images

Our take

Hello, Reddit community! I’m excited to join and seek your insights on a common challenge I face as a portrait photographer. In my workflow, I don’t offer RAW files or full galleries, instead delivering a curated selection of hand-edited images. Occasionally, clients request additional photos but express concerns about choosing without seeing the full set. I strive to maintain my artistic vision while accommodating their needs. I would love to hear how others navigate this balance while preserving their workflow and boundaries.

Hi everyone, I am new to Reddit and hope this would be the right community to ask this question. I’m a portrait photographer and wanted to get some insight on how others handle this.

I don’t offer RAWs as part of my workflow, and it’s in my contract. I also don’t send full galleries or proofs either. I hand edit all my images and deliver a curated set, but sometimes clients ask for more photos and want to see everything to consider purchasing additional images. When I let them know they can purchase additional photos at $15 each, they’ll ask how they’re supposed to choose if they can’t see what they’re purchasing first (logically I get it).** **I usually tell them I can take into account anything specific they’re looking for, but ultimately I’m the one selecting what’s added, and I try to make sure it still feels true to the session. But of course, not everyone is ok with that.

Just trying to find the best way to handle that while still keeping my workflow and boundaries in place. Would love to hear what’s worked others
