Google Drive, the drive of all drives.

Photo source: Computerworld

Google Drive has been around since 2012, but honestly I didn’t even know Google Drive existed then. In this generation, a lot of people use this application for a lot of things. Even I use it for storage purposes or for school. Most of you reading this right now probably already knows what I’m talking about. If not, then you’ve just stumbled upon one of the things that can make your life a bit easier when it comes to storage keeping for files you probably don’t want to be seen on your hard drive or SSD, sending files that frustrates you when you can’t send it through messenger or gmail to your grandma, or collaborating with others to make documents, and more.

Before we go with the ‘kind of’ informational stuff, I’ll have to warn you. I may have used Google Drive for a while now, but I still don’t know much about it, so I’ll be teaching you what I know from my experience in using this versatile and diverse application. (when I say that, this app really does have a lot of features and functions, sometimes it tends to get a bit confusing.)

So right off the bat, Google drive is usually used for storing your files, photos, videos, or whatever you would want to store in there. Basically, similar to a storage device, but accessed online. (1) You may also actually choose the option to view certain files offline, but I don’t think the option applies to all types of files and data. (2) You can also create folders to keep your files organized. Trust me on this one, if you plan to use Google drive for school or work, or other things important consistently, it’s always a good idea to have a dedicated folder for different subjects or have labelled folders depending on what you decide to put in them.

Basically, by clicking that + over there, you would be shown that prompt on the second photo. Then you’ll have your options of whether you want to create a new folder, upload something, use your camera, or etc... (Disclaimer: I am using an iOS phone, so I’m not sure whether the interface with android is similar, but I’m guessing it is.)

Another perk of this application is with your smartphones,(3) you get easy access since there is a downloadable app and it can open or view word files, powerpoints, excel, and more, so if your phone doesn’t have Microsoft office softwares/applications, google drive could help you out with that dilemma. Though you cannot edit files through Google drive... alone. By alone, you’ll see what I mean, keep reading.

So this is what a word file looks like view through Google drive. Then you’ll see that,”Edit in Google Docs” button down there, when you press that it’ll redirect you to a browser mode google docs, when on phone you won’t be able to edit it, so you’ll actually have to download the google docs app.

So the ‘alone’ part arrives here, you actually have to download different apps to either edit a word, powerpoint, or excel file. The small point of advantage of these applications is that their file size is actually smaller than Microsoft Office applications.

The picture above shows the different Google apps for designated Microsoft office files.

I’m actually one of those people who does not have microsoft office on my phone, and just use Google drive to save up space. I prefer doing these things on a computer or laptop rather on a phone, so I don’t find it as a necessity to have them.

Now we are aware of its storage abilities, let’s talk more still about its storage abilities... (4) You can actually share this storage with someone else. Now, you must be thinking, “Why would I want to waste my 15gb free storage with someone else?”. I mean, same thoughts, but hear me out for a bit more. You can share your folders with someone else so that they may view these folders and perks are you can do work and school work more efficiently. Especially in group works, where there are designated roles for a certain requirement, at least this way you can send all your work in this one folder and everyone can get access to this.

Firstly, by clicking/pressing that button with three dots, you’ll be prompted with that screen with a share option, then you get this next window where you either add people/ groups manually (black arrow) or press that green looking chain (yellow arrow) to get redirected to the next photo where you can copy paste a link (red arrow) which you can share with others. Only the people who receives that link will be able to view the folder.

Another good thing about Google drive is getting to access your files anywhere with you, so you wouldn’t need to bring a flash drive or external with you and less chances of getting corrupted files. A downside to this though is that you need a data connection or internet connection to upload your files on google drive.

As I’ve said up there, it can do a lot, another one of them is drum roll... sending files. Now, you’re probably thinking sending files isn’t really much of a problem these days. You can send files through messenger or gmail, but one thing that stands out about Google drive is it can (5) send large files to other people. When I say large, it can send even gigabytes large of files. Messenger and Gmail has a limit to how big a file is when sending something, but not Google drive, although you may use the Gmail app to send these files via the drive. Best of all, this is completely free to use!

Well, guys... this is as much knowledge I can share with you on the topic at hand, but I’ll see you on the next one. Ciao!!

How to Photograph Interiors - Part 3: Post-Processing

Now that we’ve covered How to Prepare for an Interior Shoot in Part 1 and The Photoshoot in Part 2, we can move onto the post-production process.

When packing your gear for a shoot, consider bringing a portable external hard drive and laptop with you so you can backup the RAW files immediately. This ensures that you’ll have a copy in case anything happens such as lost or corrupt memory cards, water damage, etc. and these things happen more often than you’d expect.

As a general guideline, you can follow the 3-2-1 Backup Strategy. Make 3 copies of the RAW files, 2 on separate hard drives and 1 offsite (eg. uploaded to the cloud or stored safely at another physical location like a trusted family or friend’s place).

Once you’ve made these backups, you can now start editing. We’ll keep this editing process minimal (ie. without using presets) so that you can understand the basics.

1. Organize your photos

Everyone has their own way of filing their photos. Once you’ve decided on what works best for you, stick to it. This is how I organize them so feel free to change it according to your needs.

After every shoot, I organize the photos by year and then by date. Here’s the hierarchy of folders on my external SSD Hard Drive:

> Photography - Work

> 2019

> yyyy-mm-dd Interior - Designer’s Name (Address of Location) - Raw photos

> Final - Final high-res JPG photos to be delivered

> Web - A few selected web-resolution JPG photos to be used on portfolio/social media

(This is optional but it’s useful so you have that new work ready to update your portfolio/social)

2a. Culling

If you shoot weddings or events where you have a few hundred photos, it’s best to cull the set first. This means that you take a first look through them and rate the photos to save you time when you’re actually editing. During this process, you’re also removing the photos that are unusable (ie. out of focus, accidental shots, people caught mid-blink, etc.). Photo Mechanic is a great tool for culling because it renders previews quicker than Lightroom and has a star and colour ratings.

Develop your own system of rating but here’s an example that you can use when culling in Photo Mechanic or Lightroom:

5 stars = Excellent photo that must be delivered to the client

4 stars = Great photo technically and creatively, but not a top-pick

3 stars = Good photo technically, but not very creative and doesn’t add to the story/collection

2 stars = Ok photo, but only if needed to fill in gaps in the collection

1 star = Unusable, delete.

Keyboard shortcut: You can also use the Pick/Reject system in Lightroom by pressing P on a photo to flag it as a pick and X to reject it.

2b. Import photos into Adobe Lightroom

Note: I have an Adobe Lightroom catalogue for all my work projects for the year. Some photographers choose to start a new catalogue for every shoot, which is helpful if each shoot has hundreds or thousands of photos. That helps your computer cut down on the time it takes to load the catalogue.

If you’re culling in Lightroom, drag all the RAW files from its folder into the Library module and start the process from there. If you’ve already culled your photos, select the RAW files you want to edit and drag them from the folder into the Library module.

Another way to do it is to go to File > Import Photos and Videos. Then navigate to the RAW files’ folder in the left panel:

As you’re importing, add keywords in the File Handling/Apply During Import panel on the right.

When the photos are imported, your Library will look like this (the photos have already been culled and flagged as Picked):

3. Develop Module

Once the photos are in the library, we can edit them. Here are a few things I’ll apply to each photo (either individually or as a batch):

Profile Correction

Check off “Enable Profile Correction” on the first image and sync this setting with all the photos. It’s located in the Lens Correction panel on the right (you may need to expand the panel). This ensures that every photo has the correct camera profile applied. Different cameras and lenses render photos differently so it’s best to turn on this correction.

Transform

With each photo, you may need to use the Auto or Vertical if the photo wasn’t level during the shoot. Sometimes, you’ll also need to manually adjust it using the sliders. Use the horizon lines in the photo and the grid in Lightroom to make sure walls are straight and floors are perpendicular.

Basic Panel

You can make most of your light edits here and deliver great photos. While you are being hired for your style and work, keep in mind the current client and the audience (who may very well include potential clients) to make sure the photos convey the right message.

Correct the white balance so that it represents the room the way you want the viewer to see it. In interior photography, I aim to keep the colours true to life and I check the before and after of the photo (using the \ key) often to do this. Depending on the interior designer, they may not mind stylized post-processing if it gives the room a specific look and feel that they want.

If the highlights in the photo are blown out, you may be able to recover some of the details by lowering the Highlights or Exposure sliders into the negatives.

To add pop to the photo, increase the Contrast bit by bit.

Tip! Watch out for negative impacts on the quality of the image when making adjustments. Be sure to compare the before and after throughout the editing process. Adjust the slider back and forth and dial it back if the effect becomes distracting (eg. too much contrast, loss of important details like highlights or shadows, colours are no longer represented accurately). Keyboard shortcut: Toggle the before/after by pressing the \ key.

After you’re happy with your edits to one photo, you can apply these same settings to other photos in the batch that have a similar lighting and colour situation. This will save you some time, but don’t forget to review each photo to make sure they’re consistent.

When the entire set is finished, filter the photos to make sure only your final selects are shown. Select them all and go to File > Export. Go through each section and make changes as necessary. Here are some examples:

Save the exported photos to a specific folder.

Custom rename the files according to the shoot and client.

Change the quality and resolution of the photos according to the client and use.

After you’ve exported and delivered the photos to your client, make backups of those JPGs. It’s useful to have them ready to show as portfolio work.

Thank you for following along in this How to Photograph Interiors series. I hope this has been helpful. Be sure to use the hashtag #idtjanetkwan if you apply these tips to your photos so we can see your work!
