ost photographers reading this will probably have thousands of images scattered across a range of locations, from the Mac’s Pictures folder to random external storage drives. Thanks to your ever present iPhone you may also have thousands of shots in your Photos Library. This can make it a challenge to find, edit and share specific files, especially if you can’t remember when a particular shot was captured or where it is being stored.
Fortunately, apps such as Photo Studio for Mac 8 help you take the tedium out of digital asset management thanks to tools such as ratings, colour labels and keywords. You can also manually place images in easy-to-browse categories (such as cats, dogs, portraits, etc.) You can then find files more quickly according to the ratings, colour labels, keywords or categories that you’ve assigned – regardless of where they are stored locally or on an external drive.
