I am not sure about online therapy. But I can say that some Ts in face to face therapy offer something like a check-in call once a week if they are on vaccation and similar things. However, certainly not daily pictures and notes. On the one hand because the client sees the T once a week, maybe twice, and doesn't suddenly need 7 days a week just because T is a bit further away. On the other hand it's also because one important part of therapy is that you learn to also be on your own. Nobody can check up on you 24/7 and that's an important lesson to learn. I think getting a picture a day would be inappropriate for face to face therapy, and I can honestly not see why online therapy should be different.

I don't think there is a 'supposed to feel'. How do you feel about it? Think about whether it is overall helping you and whether you think this is an okay and good thing to do. I can tell you that I would not feel comfortable with such a situation, but that doesn't mean it can't be okay to do.
