Lightroom Cleanup And Backup Setup

@gotucat

Hi, I reviewed your project and understand that your Mac-based Lightroom Classic catalog needs careful duplicate removal, logical organisation, and a more dependable backup workflow without replacing your existing solution. I’ll work safely within the current catalog, identify duplicates without risking originals, organise folders and keywords clearly, and optimise automated backups around your existing drive structure. I’ll also verify data integrity, consider a practical restore process, and use Photoshop where needed for any related image-management checks, followed by a short walkthrough for ongoing maintenance. I’ll keep the cleanup controlled, transparent, and easy to manage, with responsive communication throughout and clean documentation of the final workflow. Let’s discuss here now.

Hi there! Your project’s focus on restoring order and reliability to your Lightroom Classic catalog is clear, and I’m confident I can help. With extensive experience in organizing large Lightroom libraries, eliminating duplicates, and designing robust backup workflows on Mac, I’ve assisted numerous photographers in reclaiming control over their archives without risking valuable originals. My approach will begin with a careful duplicate analysis using Lightroom’s tools and third-party verification to ensure no unique files are lost. I’ll reorganize your folders and keywords for logical, future-proof navigation, and refine your backup routine to ensure automation, integrity checks, and fast recovery—leveraging your existing solution for minimal disruption. After cleanup, I’ll guide you through the new setup so you can maintain it confidently. Could you share how many images and hard drives are currently involved? Are there any custom presets or collections you want specially preserved during this process? Best Regards, George
