Yes, just follow the guidelines here. Everything is true and that's exactly what you need to do.

Yes, it is very needed you need to send in all items. I made an easy checklist for my self if you want it please message me it helped me orginize everything I needed to add to my package I had over 50 forms of proof from flight tickets to messages and conversations. They ask for 5 pictures I added about 12 just to be sure.

There is no minimum or maximum number of pictures or any other kind of supporting documentation. You can include as few or many as you feel necessary.

The i-129f filing instructions on the USCIS website are also very informative, read this document thoroughly.

On the guid it says 5. No you dont have to add as many as I did but it was reassuring to me atleast that I had so much supporting evidence I say the more the better.

The guide here on VJ lists what is needed. Those requirements are taken directly from the I-129F form instructions, which everyone should read and follow. You cannot go wrong with following the actual USCIS instructions for their own forms. Never rely solely on hearsay or a guide > http://www.uscis.gov/sites/default/files/files/form/i-129finstr.pdf

I agree do as said according to USCIS. Also remember we are a community and what is said in the comments are supportive help not always valid. I personally just said what I did but by all means do what feels right. I have 2 friends whl have been through this process and had great results. I didn't always do as they did but I did follow all that was required.

The guide suggests sending 2 to 5 pictures to go along with the primary evidence of meeting in person, such as passport stamps. The instructions don't ask for photos, other than the required passport photo from each. I believe the person above was simply pointing out that the instructions do not ask for 5 photos, as you initially stated.

The instructions also do not ask for proof of relationship, just meeting. However, experiences have shown that for certain high fraud consulates, you should 'front load' your petition with relationship evidence anyway. That is for the consulate/K-1 visa interview though, and not to get the I-129F petition approved.

One should always follow the USCIS or DoS instructions, and then add in extras on top of that if needed/wanted.

Men don't always like to read the instructions. You might need to keep an eye on him, tell him to get on VJ and have a look around.
