# My Photography Workflow

  1. # Capture

Take photographs on my 🌱 Photography camera body with any number of my lenses. Priorities when capturing are ::focus:: and ::composition::.

::focus:: means ensuring that focus is not drifting between subject and background and that the correct depth of field is achieved

::composition:: means positioning subject, background, and balancing open space with intentionality - think before taking the shot!


  1. # Externalize

::External Drive::

Move photographs from SD cards to external SSD/HDD to avoid data loss. This alleviates storage pressure on SD cards and allows for reuse of cards in a single trip.

Import from SSD to iPad in a single transfer after obviously bad photos are deleted.


  1. # Pick

::Lightroom::

Using Lightroom’s culling feature of ::pick & reject:: a filter down photographs. After finalizing a set of photographs, deleted the rejected ones from Lightroom.
