4000 frames or captures a day means one approximately one frame or capture every 6 seconds all day long. The only type of photographer that could come anywhere near that is some rookie, hack fashion shooter who doesn't know what the hell he wants and simply fires 8 frames a second all day long in hopes of getting something usable. And in that case it's another 8 hours just to edit that many frames or captures.

i wasn't really going to respond, because everybody has a different way of working (i have never shot 4000 frames a day and trust me, i was the assistant, so i had to change film and handle it....not fun), but since you insist on insulting people here...the photographer in question was a very nice lady, running a (very profitable) studio in manhattan and who was by no means a rookie, hack fashion shooter....
i mean you probably live on a different planet..the place where the day has only 24000 seconds (or less then 7 hours) and not 86400 (24 hours) as we do here on earth....or maybe it is just your math...maybe you are just as off with your shot-count?...an example: 20 looks with one variation each (purse, no purse, hat , no hat, different shoes) 50 frames each comes to 2000 frames...and i don't think 50 frames is a lot...btw: i have never worked with anyone who would bracket on a catalogue shoot (on still life, yes of course)...in the days of film there were polaroids and clip tests...now there is no need for bracketing once you have the set-up...
