A place to politely discuss the tools, technique and culture of photography.

This is not a good place to simply share cool photos/videos or promote your own work and projects, but rather a place to discuss photography as an art and post things that would be of interest to other photographers.

I have short films, projects that never got made, personal photos, ones of friends, clients, old family ones .. i do some writing and store different documents. I want to have a Mari Kundo type hard drive.

Do you guys have any tips? Or some industry standard I’m not aware of?

So all raw files head over to folder A, then sub folders for the selected photos into folder C? Or do you work out of folder A?. Do you also store the catalog in the subfolders in folder C? Ex. Start shoot raw goes to A, selects goto C into a sub folder called startshoot with the date, then inside that sub folder is all the images and some where a catalog? And exports there as well I assume in another sub folder labeled exports under startshoot?
