Engagement shoot sharing on social media

LouLou6218, on April 3, 2018 at 12:20 PM Posted in Etiquette and Advice 0 21
Just got our photos back from our engagement shoot.. I love them so much I want to share them but don’t want to overkill. How many photos did you all share on social media of your shoot? 4-5? 10? All?

    I think I shared one with a link to our website in the caption. That way people could view as many as they wanted. But I've had friends that have shared between 3-150. As long as it's an album and not one at a time, you should be fine. (Keep in mind if you want to use your photos for a StD or thank you card. I feel like it might be nice to keep those specific photos more of a surprise.)

    We received over 100 back from our photographer. I chose my favorite 5 to upload in a "thank you" post for our photographer and the golf course that let us take our photos there. I wanted to share them but not all of them because that's a little much.

    I think as long as its in one Album you can post as many as you want without "spamming" people. I would make sure the poses and backgrounds are varied though - no one wants to see the same picture over and over again with only one minor change.

    We each originally shared maybe four or five favorites. I have introduced others as poodle pictures or like a hey we only have 100 days left woot! Kinda thing. I never look through people's photos if they most a ton, unless I'm super close to the person.

    I created an "Engagement Photos" album on Facebook, tagged my sister who was our photographer, and shared it. It was like 100 or less photos, but I loved every one! ❤❤ had to show off my sister's talents!

    My engagement photographer was one of my bridesmaids and she did her own sharing from her business page on fb.. she probably shared between 15-20. She gave us a flash drive with over 100 edited photos and there were a ton of outtakes because DH is a goofball. Since my bridesmaid had already shared so many great ones, I shared an album of about 12 of our favorite outtakes just to show what it was REALLY like

    I shared 5, had to go check. I thought about making an album, but nah, seems like too much for us since we share the bare minimum to begin with.

    I'm putting all of ours on our wedding website. Then uploading 10 to Facebook. I'm sure over the next year I'll post more for random occasions and so will my fiance. I like seeing engagement pictures, my friend posted all of hers and all of her wedding photos. People just won't look if they don't want to see them, but your friends and family will love seeing them!

    I shared none because we had a very small wedding and I didn't want anyone on my FB friends list to be wondering where their invitation was. I might change that now and share a few.

    All in all, I've probably shared 5. I changed my profile pic and cover photo, he did the same (different shots), and I posted one additional on Valentine's Day Smiley heart

    One. Made it my profile pic on FB and it just looks like a really good photo of us. It doesn't say save the date or anything, I didn't want anyone who didn't receive a save the date to freak out.

    Our photographer posts about 20-30 on her Facebook page, and I will share it to my page too.

    I've been sharing a few over time. I shared one when we got our pictures back, one on Valentines Day, one when we hit 100 days, and I'll probably do a few more as we get closer. I love seeing other people's pictures! Just don't post any long, sappy captions!

    We got a TON of proofs back from our photographer, but I think I created an album of about 30 on Facebook.

    I shared the ones my photographer shared on her page. I might share a few of my favorites from the rest she sent me through email.
