So 2016 is the first folder below /Volumes/Photos1HD/Photos or something like that. Note that I store everything in direct-attached hard drives for easy backup and speed.

What I mean is to have a well thought out file folder hierarchy that takes full advantage of the file system: What do I mean by this? After all your photos always ends up somewhere on disk right? Actually many people simply import their photos, sometimes straight from SD card or even camera, straight into Photos or Lightroom or some other program and have no idea where it ends up. A FileSystem-Based Approach to Photo Management TL/DR my final filesystem-based solution consists of Lyn + Luminar. Ability to read existing Aperture and iPhoto libraries would be awesome.Ideally with clone/stamp or ability to apply to multiple photos Simple editing abilities, like adjust color/highlights/shadows etc.

Ability to tag multiple photos, remove them.This really simplifies things and makes it easier to port changes across tools, or to work with files and directories directly. Ideally, ability to work directly with file folders and structures.

I’m a software developer and use Mac only.Thus I’m looking for a simple workflow, ideally one where I don’t have to be tied to a single vendor that I need to continuously fork over a subscription for.

Now that I have a Fuji, with excellent out-of-camera JPEGs and built-in simulations of my favorite Fuji films like Velvia, plus HDR software, I feel the need to shoot RAWs has decreased even more. As someone with three young kids, I just don’t have the time for elaborate RAW processing. It was the perfect time to take a step back to re-examine my workflow and see if I could simplify it.Įven when I was shooting Canon, I was not really a RAW Shooter. I love it - by the way - but that’s the subject of another post. This year, I picked up a Fuji X-series mirrorless, and renewed my devotion to photography. In 2014, Aperture development stopped, but I haven’t had time to research alternatives.

For many years I was happily shooting Canon DSLRs and using Apple Aperture to organize and develop photos. Many of you know that I’m into photography as a side hobby.
