SJP Video 10: Organize your Image Folders
Posted: March 14, 2013 Filed under: SJP's Video Lessons, Tips | Tags: 10, Arts, Arts and Entertainment, business, Fine-art photography, photograph, Photographer, Photography, portrait, sjp video 10, tips, video 10, video lesson, video lessons, Video tip 2 Comments »Hello fellow photography lovers…
I post these tips and lessons to help you with your passion for photography and to help you with your business. I do this because I enjoy learning from others and hope that you learn from me too. With that said I wanted to share my latest video tutorial on organizing your image folders. I have done a lot of research trying to find the best way, for me, to organize all of my images. I’m always checking out other websites and attending tele-seminars to learn new goodies on photography. I’m a fine art photographer specializing in Macro and Landscape photography but that doesn’t limit me to view other types of photography. I enjoy everything! The creativity out there is amazing!
I believe I found this idea from a wedding photographer in New York, Doug Gorden, but it’s been a couple of years since I started this so I’m not sure
This may not be for you but check it out you might be surprised?
For my email subscribers:
Cheers,
Janice

Tips while photographing B&W:
- Pay attention to your composition – make it simple if you’re unsure.
- Contrasting colors make beautiful full Zoned images.
- Shoot in color & RAW
- If needed, view only, on camera – monochrome.
- Enjoy the experience in post; if frustrated take a break.
