An interview you must see!

Due to a busy weekend I was unable to prepare my normal Monday post. In relation to my last post, I spent a great deal of the weekend reorganizing my images and backup. I basically separated personal files, RAW files, ECO (Electronic Copyright Office) Files and pre and post production JPG/TIFF files over 4 terabytes of storage and 4 drives. All of that does not include the off-site storage I use for client presentation and just plain storage. What I may end up doing later this week is (probably Friday’s post) showing my actual workflow from start to finish on a basic portrait image. I haven’t decided how I will go about it just yet but I will come up with something. I’m sorry about the post today but hopefully the process I took this weekend and plan to show in a future post will help some of you establish a workflow that might be better suited for your work. Have a great day! — Ken

This is a video that I saw sometime back that I have always been meaning to share. A couple of weeks ago Frank Doorhof tweeted a video of a photographer’s really elaborate studio setup which aesthetically I am sure we would all want to have something similar. I have always been amazed at how Chase Jarvis handles his workflow and backup from shoot to recovery in his Seattle studio. I know I have worked to duplicate similar aspects of Chase’s workflow and backup strategy and it has been an extreme benefit to my organization and access to client files. There is not a lot you can say about this except … watch it, soak it in and learn. Enjoy!
