Lightroom is a great photo software that can be used to manage your photos, but it can be difficult to switch between different catalogs. Here are some tips to help you make the switch:

  1. Choose a catalog that is most relevant to your photography style. If you want to take photos in a natural environment or if you prefer images with more contrast, then the Landscape Catalog may be the best choice for you. If you want to shoot photos of people or close-ups, then the Portrait Catalog may be better for you.
  2. Use keywords and tags to help organize your photos. If you have pictures that are all labeled “family portrait,” “event portrait,” or “candid shot,” then it will be easier for Lightroom to find and group them together. You can also use keywords and tags in Lightroom’s Preferences window, so that Lightroom knows which catalogs to use when importing new photos into its software.
