The only good news is the girl wanted a copy of the shoot and she's told me she still has it so I might get them back.

Anyway, enough about how stupid I am. I wanna' know how do you keep your photos organised? Folders? Some naming system? A software package?

I need something to track files, track reasons for deleting and some hardware so this shit doesn't happen again.
first by date and name: 120519/Mary-Bill, in a manila folder with the docs and content burned to BD and stored in in file cabinets. and bu copies of the content w/ id's on drives stored in the closet. a word doc with all the shoots listed by date on the PC to locate folders/shoots in the file cabinet quickly by model name.
