I usually have no "image that is typical of a group": every shooting day is
different, the subjects might be completely different, more often outside
at any time of the day, or sometimes inside with difficult light
conditions; the light is changing all the time, and I'm always on the
move. When several shoots of the same subject are too resemblant, I usually
develop/publish only one, and might keep some others for later work.
Styles have almost no utility in these cases. I might create one for the
vignetting module as I find the preset too obvious; but apart from that, I
don't see any 'rule' that could be applied frequently enough to justify the
creation of a style.
