Awesome tutoria! Apple definitely makes it harder than it needs to be. For long-term management, consider Lightroom Classic with a NAS. No monthly cloud fees, no storage limits! Imagine having to redo this if you hit your Adobe storage or switch services. A NAS is a one-time cost that gives you total control. Back up directly from your phone and access photos at full speed without waiting for uploads/downloads at home.
Thanks for the tip Darin! I have not researched NAS but it definitely sounds like a problem solver! I'll look into it. Thanks a bunch! Have an awesome weekend.
Thanks--- you've confirmed exactly what I thought was going on with Photos. I hadn't heard of the utility to get all the photos out of Photos so that was a great piece of information. The other option I've had mixed success with is using an external editor from within Photos.... which feels very clumsy. So a useful video , although a tad repetitive, but I've ranted about this myself :) Thanks for making it!
I appreciate your input Ed. I hadn't used Photos for a long time because of how clunky it is...but after tutoring another student who was knee deep in the Photos app and wanting to do more...I felt that there would be more folks out there just like him. I'm glad you found it helpful. And yes...I sometimes repeat myself...sometimes...LOL! Enjoy your day!
Use Lr....OR LrC...and keep Photos for your finished images. Photos have gained functionality, but not even equal to Aperture from way back when. Lr/LrC is great, but storage costs gets a bit outrageous if you want to use their higher tiered cloud storage (as well)

Their 1TB is twice the price of a 20GB account. You’re so right. Ridiculous…
