Hi all.
I recently began using Lightroom, and am quite happy with it. I have now installed it on my laptop, and want to take the last two months' images with me. They are sorted into folders by shoots (containing the RAW files) with a sub-folder each for PSDs and JPGs.
Currently they are all listed as folders in Local Disk, as well as All Photographs under Catalog. I do not have any images in the Quick Collection, nor do I have Smart Collections (I need to learn what that is, to be honest.)
In the past I would simply copy over the folders, and navigate to the images using Bridge into Photoshop. However Lightroom seems to have a whole Catalog and Library process that I don't fully grasp yet.
What is the best way to move data from my Desktop to my Laptop? Export with Presets? Export as Catalog? I want to retain the processing that I've already applied to the images...
What to do? Please advise.
