Lightroom Folder Transfer

Adobe Lightroom by default stores photos in this structure.

  • folder location
    • year
      • date
        • photos

This script moves pictures from the old location to a new location keeping the folder structure.

Before

  • old folder location
    • year
      • date
        • photos

After

  • new folder location
    • year
      • date
        • photos

After manipulating the file location, Lightroom would not be able to locate the pictures, but you can easily fix this issue by updating the folder location in Lightroom.

How to use the scripts

  • Get the script.
git clone https://github.com/keiohtani/lightroom_folder_transfer.git
  • Specify the origin folder and the target folder in the script.
origin_dir=/Volumes/YOUR_OLD_VOLUME
target_dir=/Volumes/YOUR_NEW_VOLUME
  • Run the script. The command takes the year as the argument.
sh move_folders.sh YEAR
  • In Lightroom, right-click on the folder and select "Update Folder Location". Choose the new folder location, then you should be good to go!
