Drew Altizer runs an event photography company which covers fundraisers, parties, corporate events, & more, often with multiple photographers shooting simultaneously. On-site editors are responsible for ingesting photogs from cards, organizing, and renaming files using a specific naming scheme involving manually tracking multiple counters for different groups of photos.

To help simplify the job of the editors we built an application to handle batch renaming. It’s configurable for each event and includes a preset system for repeat jobs, allowing the groups and counters to be saved. The app automatically picks up where each counter left off, groups associated sidecar files, and can restore the original names if needed.

One click of a button and the editor is ready for the next card.
