I'm starting to gather things for the interview in a few months. One thing we are lacking is photos. I've got a facial condition which means I hate having photos taken. So in the last 3.5 years I maybe have 15 photos with myself in, along with my DH and our family/friends. We have maybe another 50 of him and our families all in difference scenarios and another 50 or so of our wedding. Will this be enough? I read of people having hundreds and hundreds of photos and now I'm anxious.

I have boarding passes, hotel receipts, touristy things etc to show we traveled and did stuff together so I'm not concerned about that. Plus we've lived together over 2yrs too so we have joint stuff like banks, cellphone, car insurance and now health insurance etc.

Hopefully that's all ok. We front loaded our AOS petition, and sent 8 photos, so it should be all good.

Photos are considered secondary evidence anyway. I think even sending 50 photos would be a lot. What visa are you adjusting from?

I totally understand where you're coming from to some degree.

I think we have enough pictures but unless I can approve and scrutinize or take the picture myself, my OCD gets really bad and I have to do this entire routine which is why I can't stand having my picture taken because it stresses me out beyond the point of "ugh what a bad photo" even if nobody else was going to see it, I will still obsessive over it until I felt like my routine was done correctly. BUT ANYWAYS, I was worried about not having enough photos either initially, but I think showing you have ties and joint bills and things is better evidence than pictures because realistically, anyone can take photo together in 2 seconds, but putting your names on bills and adding yourself to rental agreements and insurance requires a bit more effort.
