My time machine backup of old Mac is to big for my new Mac

When trying to use the migration assistant to transfer my old Macs data (>1 TB) to a new MacBook Air M2 (1 TB) it will not fit. I want to skip restoring photos and instead download them later.

macOS Ventura on both machines.


I can't find an option to do this.


Any suggestions?

MacBook Air
