File Management Workflow

Hitting the Import button is just one of many steps a photographer takes when managing and building an archive. In fact, it’s a small step when looking at everything photographers do to organize their work. We also have to name them, store them, keyword them, and edit them. The larger the archive we’re building, the more care we should take with each step. In any case, it’s terribly important to know what the steps are and how to create goals and protocols for managing our library. File management workflow is not only the means by which we create organization, it is also the foundation for our creative process in Lightroom.
