All of us should have a systematic approach to backing up our image files. But don’t forget your album files. We’ve had numerous occasions here at Zookbinders when a photographer has needed another copy of an album months or even years after the original album was produced, however, they didn’t have the page files available. Besides making multiple copies of the PSD files of my own album page layouts, I make copies of the flattened JPEGs and I even burn a copy of the album layout JPEGs to the image disc I include with my clients’ package. This way, if ever there is a problem with their album, I have multiple back-ups of the album files.
