Erik, using it for names is very helpful advice. Thank you!

What? This article is for new users? Why didn’t you say so before?

(wink)

Or will be absorbed into a new system. However, collections are a construct of Adobe/Lightroom…which be around…hmmm, I don’t know the answer to that one. Do you?

I agree that less time could be spent on it but you need the basics if you want to be sure you can find images.

So far I’ve made it through about 3 folders before getting overwhelmed by the tediousness (word?) of the process. And then…I read this. Though I probably do need to go back and pic favorites…they don’t all fit on my iPad anymore.

Thank you!

I teach old geezer photography at the local U, have to be over 50. My new users are really new. I have been skipping the part about keywording, saying you can read about it if you are interested. Now I know why I skip it. I don’t keyword either, but I always thought students should know about it. Now I just tell them to watch the Grid segment of you and RC at the 15 minute point where you begin the discussion. All of my students are new to Lightroom, some don’t even have it they are so new. At least you get to teach users with some experience. I sometimes have help them with the problem, “My daughter gave me a camera at Christmas and I haven’t taken it out of the box.”

Hey I consider myself pretty adept at LR, but these little tidbits are fantastic. I used to keyword obsessively but have also found it to be a waste of time. I will now only keyword a super 5-star winner, or a memorable photo other people may want copies of in the future… and I’m finding more and more this may be a waste of time too.

Scott I couldn’t agree with you more. I would LOVE to have every image key-worded properly..BUT, even if you decide to start doing it today with today’s session…you have 60 new images for example: One set of keywords for all 60 images won’t cut it for all the images. Yes all of them are “New York” but 3 are of your kids there, 2 are of buildings , 10 are street shots, 4 are of the bridge, 2 are your dinner, 25 are of a client who’s headshots you did that afternoon. Each different image requires the time to keyword them all differently. Would I like ll of that done? Sure. But I’d rater have the time for my wife, my family, for more shooting. So it’s basic collections for my money.
