How To Organise Travel Photos In Lightroom To Save Time Later

I have a dead simple way of organising my travel photos in Lightroom. This is what I do.

• Import the photos

• Apply some processing on import.

• Quickly go through the photos and delete the ones that I just do not want.

• Select the photos that I like the look of quickly – hit P

• Create a new folder

• Create a new sub-folder called Picks

• Add the picks

• Create a new sub-folder called All

• Add the rest

• Add all the photos to a collection and sync with Lightroom Mobile

• Backup and format the memory cards

And that is that. I use this process on every trip and it means that I never have a backlog of hundreds of images to go through.
