But every once in a while, I wanted to finish culling or doing light edits on a batch of photos and I would prefer to do that work on the couch or snuggled up in bed. I had Lightroom (LR) installed on both computers, but my catalogue was sitting on my desktop because my desktop has more hard drive space and honestly, I prefer editing on the desktop because the screen is so much bigger. However, I was still having issues with editing my photos. That way I have access to all of those documents, photos.whatever om whatever computer I am on or my phone or tablet. EVERYTHING gets saved to my Dropbox folder.

The introduction of Dropbox and my understanding of how to really use it to my advantage rocket launched my productivity. Having to get off the couch to go sit at my uncomfortable desk in order to complete an email was just not working for me! #firstworldproblems #iknowright? I would have files of images or documents saved on one computer and then BOOM! I would be working on the other computer need to access those same files, but woe is me, they were on the other computer. What's the problem you say? Sounds like you've got it pretty good with two very nice computers available to you to do work on.what could be so bad about that? Two words: File management. It's always interesting to me the problems we seem to create for ourselves in the name of technology and comfort. I often times would start a project on one computer and need to finish it on the other.

I had an iMac desktop computer that sat in my makeshift office as well as a MacBook Air laptop that I used while on the couch or in bed or traveling.

The issue I was having was this: I had two computers that I worked on regularly for normal business operations and communication as well as editing photos. Ohhhh if only I had this post to read to myself about two years ago when I was pulling my hair out trying to organize and manage the way I edit photos and run my business!
