Why more photos is not always better but why 1000 minimum can be a big advantage

But there is a real advantage to a higher minimum when it is done properly.
A 1000 minimum helps you get More guest moments and reactions you did not see
More atmosphere and details that bring the day back
More variety across the day rather than repeating the same scene
A fuller story from morning prep to evening

A quick note on drone and photo numbers
Drone does not usually change how many wedding photos you receive. Drone adds context and scale to your film and sometimes a few aerial stills depending on the setup. It is about atmosphere rather than quantity.
