    I would say you took 150. But it depends on how long you did shoot. I do this style of photoshoot too. Althogh I shoot in vintage fashion so more soft, elegant poses. I use my Motorola and a remote and did not control every pose beforehand. During a 3 hours shooting I shoot 250-300 pictures and keep 30.
