Does Squarespace reduce the file size of images?

Recommended Posts

My site is image heavy so I would like to reduce the file size of the images as much as possible. I believe this should help make the pages load faster. However, I'm not sure if Squarespace automatically reduces an image's file size so I go to tinyjpg.com to reduce the file size then upload to Squarespace, resulting in another step in the process. Does Squarespace reduce the file size for me? What are best practices around optimizing image file sizes? Thanks!
