### **Overview**

If you are looking for information about Student Data Exports, visit: [US, CA](https://help.gotphoto.com/en/support/run-a-student-data-export-pspa-and-custom-export?hsLang=en) / [UK](https://help.gotphoto.com/en/support/run-a-student-data-export-sims-and-custom-export?hsLang=en)

GotPhoto allows you to download the original photo files from an entire job or from specific albums. The process differs slightly depending on whether you want all photos or just a subset.

---

### **Download all photos from a job**

1. 1Open the **Photo Management** tab in your photo job.
2. 2Click the **Action**dropdown (above the list of albums) and select **Download original photos**.

### **Download file options**

Depending on the number of images in your download, you’ll see different options:

- **If fewer than 1000 images:** Select the **As one file** tab, then click the **Download** button.

- **If more than 1000 images:** Select the **As several files** tab, then click **Download all**. Images will be split into zip files containing 1000 files each.

  If a download fails, you only need to restart that specific file, rather than the entire process.

---

### **The takeaway**

You can download original photos for an entire job or individual albums. For large jobs, images are split into multiple zip files to make downloads manageable. Restarting only failed files saves time when downloading in bulk.
