Is it normal in your country for personal trainers to have their clients send them pictures of everything they eat everyday?

It's very invasive. I personally don't need photos for myself as I track accurately. Even the days I eat almost 4,000 calories I track. It's invasive because I hired the trainer because I said I was interested in powerlifting but didn't want to do it alone. And also interested in having a more muscularly balanced body since I mostly only did major compound lifts and a few other things but not much isolation work. I struggle with compulsive and impulsive overeating so when that happens, I still have to send him the photos and it's so uncomfortable. Also sending my horrible looking meals (as in they're not pretty/aesthetically pleasing) is embarrassing lol.
