This PSD holds 20+ sub page designs. Every interactive designer has their own workflow for organizing layers/folders.
General rules:
- Everything gets properly labelled (no "copy" for the layer name)
- Everything gets properly grouped in a folder
- Folders within a sub page are in order of visual appearance on the design (from top of the page)
- No linked layers!
- No locked layers!
- All mask layers are linked to their respective layer/folder!
- "Beardcrumbs" is an acceptable name for "breadcrumbs"
I also don't ever use the Direct Selection tool. The organized folder system allows me to get anywhere very quickly. Sometimes I'll choose the text tool and click into a paragraph to bring me directly to the folder I want to be in too.
What's your workflow like?

To my immediate down & left when when working. Quick use files for inbox, Read/Review, Support, Tickle, & To file. Behind which is an on the go folder set I picked up from Allen Co. As well as the second container of computer parts and such.
Seems like possible workflow is to save the commonly used profiles for different applications such as portrait, landscape and so on. Once finaliized, can transfer to custom settings in camera to get SOOC jpeg in such settings. Then there’s no need to convert using the PC software.
Now it’s to try simulation recipes as well.

Once upon a time, I shot all my photos in JPEG, and occasionally managed to find time to post them. Then, I was convinced to start shooting in RAW to have more control over the outcome. Once I did that, I was on a slippery slope, of course. A few months later, someone introduced me to photo processing plugins, particularly Topaz Adjust and DeNoise. Happy with the visuals, I added those into my already-overburdened workflow. And then, recently, for reasons I can't determine, the Topaz plugins started completely obliterating the EXIF data from the photos I use them to process. EXIF data, like GPS coordinates and timestamps in particular, are really important to me. After a few hours of banging my head against the wall of unhelpful internet discussion forums, I arrived at the solution pictured here. I now have to run a command-line utility called 'exiftool' and manually copy the EXIF data from the originals to the edited copies once I'm done tweaking.
Maybe I should just go back to JPEGs...

My Workflow for 2018!
I have made the choice to leave Lightroom CC behind and have a new workflow and learning curve for 2018.
Own all the software below so no monthly charges for 2018
I have had DXO software for a while and often have used it from Lightroom so now my organisation and main software will be DXO Pro.
I will support this with Affinity Photo (that i have had copies of since the beta on the Mac) and have the book and really need to get to grips with this software to get creative in 2018
Also have LandscapeStudioPro software which can be great for quick changes in surfaces and backgrounds.
Also have NIK collection that DXO have just taken over and look forward to changes that DXO say they have planned for 2018 - but not actual said what the changes are ;-)
Have Creative Kit in the wings as the SnapHeal program I find amazingly good for removing unwanted items, especially when large!
So a lot of words and lets see how I get on with the different software and workflow in 2018
Roberto Fonte admin of the HDR Maranatah group asked me to post a workflow of how I work with HDR as a help to those photographers just starting. Being a career teacher I absolutely jumped at the chance to teach again. I hope this is a help for you beginners out there.

wbg_215: @westphillybabe. No these were a limited color that the came out with for just men sizes.
Here is an example of my workflow, and I encourage you to look at this file as “Original Size” and at 100%. By the way, this plane is a North American T6 "Texan" trainer.
I spent pretty-much the entire day today trying to tweak my standard photo-processing workflow. After all of this, my conclusion is that what I have been doing is pretty good, and I’ll probably stick with it.
First, I tried the DxO product, “PhotoLab 2”. My conclusion is that this would make a good, cost-effective replacement for Lightroom/Photoshop, but I already have the Adobe products, I have used them for years and I am used to them, and I see no compelling reason to change now. This is especially true since I am eligible for the Adobe “education discount”, which makes LR/PS affordable for me. If I were looking for a good photo-processing software package, and faced paying full retail, I’d definitely consider DxO PhotoLab 2, however.
I next went looking for an alternative sharpening tool. I have used various methods over time without being 100% satisfied with any of them. I have seen tools from the company Topaz Labs recommended, so I picked up the trial version of both their sharpener and NR software. I was underwhelmed. First, the Topaz plugins are very, VERY slow. When I am doing a commission and processing a hundred shots, the speed difference would probably add a few hours to the process and I don’t need that. There also doesn’t seem to be an easy, direct way to restrict the application of the tool. Especially when used from LR, sharpening and NR are all-or-nothing across the entire image, which is not true in my existing workflow. I want to sharpen my subject, and only my subject, and I want to reduce noise in the background, and only the background. I have developed techniques in PS that let me do this, and I can’t understand why this concept isn’t standard in every photo-processing application.
Another issue that I had was that a lot of these tools are not tightly integrated, as the Adobe products are, and they require the creation of an intermediate file like a TIF. Once again, when processing hundreds of shots, this will chew up an enormous amount of HD space. These extraneous, intermediate files could be deleted afterwards, of course, but that’s one-more-step in the workflow, and it should be unnecessary.
The outline of what I do is;
LIGHTROOM:
•Import my RAW images and use LR as my library-management tool, including automatic backups.
•Make a virtual-copy of what I am about to process so that my original RAW file is untouched.
•Crop and Straighten
•Adjust WB (if necessary) and “Tone” (using “auto” as a starting point)
•Adjust “Presence”. My starting-point is (top-down) 20/20/10/20/-10
•Select “show clipping” (the up-arrows in the histogram) and adjust “Whites” and “Blacks” so that the dynamic-range is full-spectrum and just-barely hitting the clip-points.
It is also my standard practice to use automatic lens-correction profiles in LR, and LR’s default sharpening (40%) as a preliminary stage. I then pass the image to Photoshop, which is done without creating/saving an intermediate file.
PHOTOSHOP:
•My preference is to do any cloning and healing repairs in Photoshop because I find these PS tools easier to use than LR’s.
•I then often use the DxO/NIK Viveza module as a plugin layer to make localized adjustments. In this sample, I brightened the pilots face, and only his face, using Viveza.
•I then use the “Quick Selection Tool” of PS and select my main subject, the airplane/pilot in this case. I can then use the DxO/NIK Output Sharpener to sharpen only the selected area. This avoids adding excessive and unnecessary noise and sharpening-artifacts to the background. I usually make this step a little harsh, because I can always back it down easily through the layer opacity slider.
•Once I have applied the sharpening modification to the selection, I do an “Inverse Selection” which picks everything except what I have just sharpened. I now run the DxO/NIK Define module for noise-reduction. This allows me to suppress noise in the background where I don’t want it, without softening the lines or blurring the texture on the main-subject. Beyond simple NR, additional blur can be added in this selection too, although it is tricky to do that without making it look unnatural.
I can now save my final result as a JPG and exit without saving any intermediate file. The virtual-copy in LR still contains all of the LR-level changes, and the original RAW file is still available too. I am deliberately throwing away what I have done in PS though, because I don’t want to spend the disk-space and the chances are that if I reprocess, I’ll want to do it all differently anyway.
