Behind the workflow

A considered process.
A lasting application.

The small details that make a photographic workflow feel right. From the first pass through a shoot to the archive you return to years later.

Crafted for the Mac

Independent software.
A photographer’s point of view.

Culling & refinement

Keep the rhythm.
See the potential.

A first pass should feel like looking at photographs. Navigate from the keyboard, mark the frames that matter, and use ratings and labels to narrow the field.

Crop, rotate and compare preview edits with the original. Native checks include JPEG/TIFF and one Canon CR2 preview path; full RAW development and broader camera support are separate work.

Inside preview and refinement
Your working library

A working selection.
A lasting archive.

Your final selects and your original archive serve different purposes. Transfer’s Copy mode prepares a separate working selection while keeping source files and catalog references in place.

Independent catalog windows keep separate jobs in view. Familiar Mac shortcuts, local storage and catalog sets let you organize the way you think.

Legacy catalogs

Photographic history.
Visible again.

Recorded .ivc restoration includes 24- and 133-photo historical catalogs. Explicit parent-folder mapping restored access to moved sources; viewing, stored previews, organization and reopening were checked within the supported import profile.

The original catalog stays unchanged. The supported formats and compatibility notes explain what comes forward and where a catalog may need further review.

Client approval

A private gallery.
A shared decision.

The launch vision connects the final choices to the working catalog. Clients would receive a private link to share with family and the people helping them choose.

The intended workflow brings print selections and album favorites back into Lightbox Pro. The hosted galleries and returned selections are a launch goal, not a verified service in the reviewed application.
