First time poster alert!
I've used Lightroom for a long time but never used Lightroom to its full. My main use has been importing a wedding shoot, creating one main collection for that wedding, adding a rating while culling then adding some presets and then exporting.
Now I want to import all my other photos and I'm struggling with how to organise everything. I've seen a load of posts that just say not to organise by date.... but that's exactly how my folders have been organised since I got a digital camera in 2001 so it's a hard habit to get out of. Also, whilst some things I did this month might fit in to an event folder (e.g. Easter walk by the estuary), what about one off pictures I take of the dog, a flower, a sunset etc. Do I still keep a folder by month, add events when suitable and everything else goes in to "April General Photos"
Does anyone have a structure that works well for a random assortment of photos of varied subjects?!
