Looking for a better workflow idea when editing between LR & PS
I'm wondering if there is a better workflow than what I am currently doing. I'm open to new/more efficient ideas.
Steps
- Edit in LR (collection name = LR Edits)
- From LR, Edit In > Edit in Adobe Photoshop
- Edit in PS (new TIF file is created with -Edit at the end of the filename)
- Finishing touches in LR (crops, export sizes) on the -Edit file
- Move the -Edit file into a new collection (collection name = PS Edits)
- Remove the -Edit file from the LR Edits collection.
Changes Want to Make
I wish there was a way to move the -Edit images into the PS Edits collection and NOT have to also remove it from the LR Edit collection. The goal is to reduce clicks/steps.
But I don't want to open the -Edit images in the Library module, just to put them in a new collection.
Reasoning
I like to keep the different files in separate collections so if I want to change the crop, its easier to find the image in the PS Edits collection. I find it less chaotic not having multiple version of 1 image in 1 collection.
When I save the image in PS, I do not have to manually rename the file, select the folder location, or import back into LR, if I open directly from LR.
