Hey Forrest, great video! Would be super stoked to see your backup/organizational workflow when it comes to post processing. For example, how do professionals balance cloud storage, external SSD's, NAS, etc when editing and exporting? Do you utilize DNG or .xmp files to save your LR edits for future use? What does the culling process look like? Do you have separate catalogues for printing and portfolio items? The list goes on and on and on... and on - any insight on that end of the photography spectrum would be super useful so amateurs and semi-pro's can future proof themselves if/when they decide to make the transition. Thanks a ton!
Great Video....I like how you structure your projects. Quick tip: If you write your date the other way around (like 220220 or 22-02-20) your projects will automatically sort by increasing date.
Thanks for watching and thanks for the comment! Since my folders go Year > Month > Day I like using the "1- 2- 3- " format so it feels a little less computer-y haha.
As quickly as you can reasonably do it is the best bet! Even when I'm not shooting paid work I try to do it this as having the habit is important, even if some of the shoots are not. Thank you for watching and for the comment!
Do you use a faster card in slot one and a slower card in slot 2, (sony camera). Or do you like to always use fast, more expensive cards for both slots? And how many times can you reformat a card before it wears out? Great video, you are clear and explain things well.
I shoot Fuji X-T4 with two cards and I use a fast(er) card for RAW and a slow(er) card for jpeg without any issues (I usually shoot single shot. Not burst mode)

Excellent questions - this comment might just be a video in itself

This is so helpful. I always back up my files but not nearly quick enough (in field or before leaving the set). Thanks for always educating my friend!

Love it! Looks like I have some things I need to start doing for my next paid shoot 😆
The 5D Mark 4 has 2 slots
peilcase has card cases, shock, water and dust proof. best investment ever...
Absolutely! I use Peli cases for camera gear and cards - I just don't want them all in the same place
Kaka Santi!!
Bro, you talk a lot...
