I will be honest, for me one of the worst parts of photography is the end of the process, the time to organize the folder, the order, anyway, the last part of a very long work that starts in your head and ends with a hard drive. This last part of the photography organization gives me overwhelming laziness, but is it that important?
If you are one of mine you probably understand me perfectly, if you have the opportunity to enjoy the process from start to finish, congratulations, but what is clear is that in both cases (and especially in the first?), having a good program to organize your images is vital to do it with something more enthusiastic, but above all agile, efficient and safe.
- Because it’s not just about throwing everything in a supposedly safe place.
- It’s about being able to find the images with agility when you need them.
- Not leaving them in a sad corner.
- But keeping them appetizing.
- Alive and stimulating.
So, to make your life easier, I introduce you to some of the best programs to organize your photos. Come?
Not only is it a powerful editing tool, but it’s also a great image organizer so you don’t have to be in multiple locations at the same time or have multiple programs for the entire photo process.
If you’re already a Lightroom fan, when you know its organizational possibilities, you’ll be even more :-).
You can organize them by folders, by punctuation, but also by EXIF data of images (lens type, ISO, keywords or location). Of course, to capture all its possibilities, it is better to study its operation and possibilities a little before it is started to organize, to find the most effective system for your working method.

If you’re sure of Photoshop as you know and if not, maybe you should?Because it’s almost packed with Photoshop and works great with Adobe Raw and Photoshop.
Adobe Bridge allows you to organize your photos very easily and efficiently using color labels, star ratings, or keywords.
It also allows batch changes (same action for multiple photos at once) and easily exports them to the web, in pdf format. Or where do you want it?
In addition, image files can be displayed in thumbnails of different sizes, slideshows, lists, light tables, etc.
Here you can see a little introduction to its possibilities
It is a classic and one of the most used and recommended programs to store and organize photos, at the moment it offers unlimited storage in the cloud (although the images must have a maximum of 16MP, otherwise the same program compresses them to this size, preserving good quality) and a very efficient search engine to find images.
It is very easy to use, the wizard is very practical because, thanks to an elaborate algorithm, it automatically classifies the images according to what appears in it.
It also allows you to set basic editing settings, create animations and collages, scan old photos, create albums shared with other people, or view photos on TV.
Sharing images is also very simple, you can do it on WhatsApp, Messenger, Instagram, Twitter, etc.

Another great program that allows you to organize your photos efficiently, by date, location, color labels, stars and even facial recognition, allowing you to find the method that suits you best.
It works perfectly with different formats like RAW, JPEG, etc. , and allows you to easily share your photos with Facebook, Flickr and even YouTube.

Those of you who are Apple fans probably know perfectly well, because this is the default photo storage program that comes with your computers by default, it is very intuitive and easy to use, it also allows you to share images from your different Apple devices.
It also has many editing tools: brightness, exposure, contrast, color, noise, curves, black and white, touch-ups, enhance the photo?More than enough for you to combine the editing program with the organization program into one. With Photos, you won’t need to go very far to do it ?.
And if you like to share your images on social networks, you can also do it quickly and easily by email, Flickr, Facebook, Twitter, etc.
Finally, it allows you to design your photo book without leaving the program. The results of the book in terms of design and quality are also very good. As you can see, a super complete program to make your life immensely easier?.
Here’s the detailed information
Finding an editing program with which to feel comfortable is fundamental in the context of photographic work, but finding a program that “encourages” you to organize your photos in a simple and agile way, is it a wonderful thing ?. Because right now the sloths think that ‘it doesn’t matter’, ‘until they erase them it doesn’t matter; I don’t care where or how they are, “I’m going to get organized a day later,” “I’ll wake up to find the image I need when I need it. “
But believe me, with the volume of images we move around the digital world, we are planted in thousands and thousands of images that also come from different devices, it’s chaos, and not organizing it is, for the most part, practically non-existence. .
So I hope that one of these 5 image organization programs will make your life easier and more productive, remember: don’t leave for tomorrow what you can do today.
