Game Changer

For a long time I heard other photographers raving about Photo Mechanic. I finally downloaded the free trial and culled a wedding using the program. I must have been doing it wrong, because I didn't feel it really saved me any time. Previously I had been culling as I edited in Adobe Lightroom rather than culling the photos and then importing them for editing. It was pretty hard to determine how much time I was spending on culling since it was mixed in with editing. After a friend finally showed me her method of tagging the photos to keep and deleting the rest, I finally realized how amazing Photo Mechanic is. I can now cull a portrait session in 10 minutes or less, and cull an all day wedding in 30 minutes to an hour. Plus, if I need to zoom in on an image to check its sharpness, I don't have to wait for the full image to load. So great!

Changed Culling Forever

I love that instead of going through all my photos and deleting some, I'm now choosing what to keep in the first place.
