I have a Sony RX100 and have been taking a lot of pictures of my daughter's new house being built. When I get back to my Laptop and download them, I select multiple files and share them to her IPhone via Messenger which I downloaded to my Laptop. At some time I will give her a flash drive with all the pictures. I know this isn't emailing but I think its easier. I try not to send more than 6 files as an attachment at a time.
Taking progress photos of a house or whatever project is great.
I recorded my building a house years back & often marvel at it. Long since sold & relocated but reliving the story is some thing that makes me proud of my achievements. Finished product is fantastic.

What's the best format to use when emailing multiple pictures to someone? If I use a jpeg format I can only do Two at the most in a single email. If I use a RAW format, I have to use something like One Drive which takes forever to upload to send. I don't want to send so many emails it feels like they are getting spammed. The latest round I'm referring to is sending pictures of our house to our landlord.
Small to medium size JPEG.
my last 4 years of photos are automatically stored to one drive, so If I want to provide several photos to someone, I create a folder and transfer the files to that folder, then I share that folder with the person which sends them a link by email. The email stays under 20-30 Kb and the full size (or whatever size I choose) is available to the recipient. After a day, week, month, I recover the space by deleting the folder.
In PhotoShop resize the pictures to 800 pixels on the long side. Under the file menu save for web/device. In that window optimize file size to 150kb.
You will be able to either send the files or, depending on your email program, copy and paste them so they actually show in the email.
150kb is plenty to view and even make small prints. Everything I post here is optimized for that size.
You will be able to send plenty of pictures.

Use HIGHTAIL.com. It's free up to 50 megs. It's easier to zip your pics into a single folder. I use this regularly to deliver pictures to clients.
I think that link I just sent you is a newer version of the SW since they removed the older link and replaced it with this one.

How does client unpack the images?
Does the software apply compression which noticeably affects the images?

I don't have any experience with this software, but if it uses standard "zip" algorithms, any Windows machine since Windows 7 can decompress them without any loss in fidelity. Zip compression is lossless.
