Likewise, how do I organize folders in Lightroom? In the Folders panel of the Library module, select two or more folders that also contain subfolders. Right-click (Windows) or Control-click (macOS) and choose Create Collection Sets From Selected Folders from the context-menu. Lightroom Classic creates a collection set corresponding to each of the selected folders.<\/p>\n
In this regard, what is the difference between an album and a folder in Lightroom<\/strong>? Collections contain your photos<\/strong>, and collection sets can contain other collection sets or collections. In Lightroom<\/strong> CC-land collections are called albums, and collection sets are called folders. In other words, in Lightroom CC you organize your albums by putting them into folders.<\/p>\n Correspondingly, how do I organize photos<\/strong> in Lightroom<\/strong> CC? <\/p>\n You asked, how do I organize<\/strong> raw photos? Keep all your Raw files on an external hard drive in a master folder called \u201cPhotos [Originals]\u201d (or something similar), in subfolders organized by year, month and subject matter. The folder structure looks like this.<\/p>\n Collections are safe, and will keep most users out of trouble. You can have as many sub-folders inside that one main folder as you want, but if you want to have peace, calm, and order in your Lightroom, the key is not to import photos from all over your computer.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Add or import photos and videos from Camera Roll or Gallery. While in the Albums view, tap Options ( ) icon on the album you want to add photos to and then tap Add Photos from the context menu. While in the Grid view, tap Add Photos at the bottom of the screen.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Folders are where the image files live. Folders are not saved inside of Lightroom, but are stored somewhere on an internal or external hard drive. When importing images into Lightroom, you specify where those images will be stored on your computer or an external hard drive.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n A target collection or target album is a neat shortcut in both versions of Lightroom. It identifies a collection\/album as a quick destination for adding photos.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Where are my Lightroom photos stored? Lightroom is a catalog program, which means that it doesn’t actually store your images \u2013 instead, it simply records where your images are stored on your computer, then stores your edits in the corresponding catalog.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Android Filters: From the Photos tab, tap the funnel icon in the upper right. Here you will see options to filter and sort your photos; you can tap any of the filters to input data for the fields you want use to select photos.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n Lightroom has a star rating system which can be accessed under the thumbnail of each image in Grid View (G hotkey) in your Lightrom Library. Each image can be assigned a star rating of 1-5 by simply pressing the corresponding number on your keyboard.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Set Up a Folder System in Lightroom.
