Summary

Photographers, this episode is for YOU. We get asked SO often about our workflow and systems with organizing our Lightroom catalogs and our hard drives in our photography businesses.

This is something that no one freaking tells you when you're just starting your photography business and you're kinda stuck to just sort of figure it out yourself. I remember when I first started my business and I didn't have a CLUE what I was doing or how to work Lightroom, how to store my photos, where to put them for ease of finding old photos again, and ALL that jazz.
