Abstract

There is disclosed a system, apparatus and methods for optimizing photo selection. When a photographer takes photos as requested in a shot list, the photos are automatically assigned a quality score which correlates to how prominently the photo would be displayed in an online search. The photos and the quality scores are displayed to the photographer so that when the photographer has shot a sufficiently high quality photo then the photographer can stop shooting. Photos with the highest quality scores are optimal. The shot lists include reference photos, and if a new photo has a higher quality score than the corresponding reference photo, the new photo becomes the reference photo.
