Do you only cull in Lightroom or also in Photo Mechanic?
In the majority of cases, we cull in Lightroom and therefore prefer receiving a Lightroom Catalog with Smart Previews.
Upon request, we can also do the culling in Photo Mechanic. In this case, you will need to extract JPGs from your RAW files and send us the JPG files (otherwise you'd be sending us 100+GB of data). In any case, we can guide you through the extraction process if you're not familiar with it.
