One System to Organize Every Image You’ve Ever Taken

Most photographers use Lightroom to edit their images. But serious photographers, those who are building a body of work over years or even decades, know that Lightroom Classic is also a professional-grade digital asset management (DAM) system.

This workshop is designed for photographers who are ready to get serious about how they organize their work. Over three focused sessions, you’ll learn how to transform your Lightroom catalog into a custom-built archive that’s scalable, searchable, and stress-free.

This is not a surface-level tutorial. It’s a methodical deep dive into the real systems professionals use to manage 100,000+ images, find any photo in seconds, and never lose a great shot again.

What you’ll learn

  • Foundational Strategies

    Lightroom was designed to be more than just editing software. Say goodbye to multiple hard drives, and implement a scalable backup strategy.

  • Import Workflow

    From import presets and folder destinations to custom file naming and keywording, you’ll learn how to automate consistency and eliminate confusion.

  • Metadata Mastery

    Learn how Smart Previews give you flexibility to work offline, and how to create a metadata-rich catalog is easily searchable and custom to you.

  • Collections and Systems

    Transform your catalog into a powerful, living archive. You’ll learn how to cull more efficiently using a professional three-pass method and how to use Collections and Smart Collections to organize your best work without duplicating files.

    Whether you’re working from a laptop in the field or syncing back to a desktop at home, you can stay organized and in control no matter where you’re shooting with external drives and Smart Previews.
