Product Details

This 40-page ebook is the result of answering many questions about backup strategy and online photo security. This is Part 1 of a multi-part Workflow series.

BONUS! This download includes the slideshow from my 3-hour Photographer's Workflow class, which includes additional information about Asset Management workflow in Adobe Lightroom.

BONUS! The slideshow has been updated in January 2020!

I get a lot of questions about backup strategy. I put together this 40-page ebook to provide more meat to my Workflow class. You will read about my methods of maintaining file and data security, as well as my 3-layer backup system.

The eBook also describes ways to save money on backups, and how to make sure your data is safe in the event of a mechanical failure, natural disaster, or "oops" moments.
