1. Create folder on hard drive for images from shoot.
2. Using a card reader, transfer images (RAW) from card to folder.
3. Copy folder with images to external hard drives (two) for backup.
4. Open Adobe Bridge and select folder with images.
5. Select all images>File>Open in Camera Raw
6. Make batch adjustments, then quickly tweak individual images as needed.**
7. Save, re-name and re-number images as jpegs into same folder.
8. Have coffee or wine, depending on time of day.
9. Put processed jpegs into a new folder named for shoot.
10. Burn jpegs to CD for client and call FedEx.
11. Copy folder with processed jpegs to external hard drives.

**The only time I go into Photoshop is when an individual image needs additional processing or to change the size for web posting.

This whole process is pretty fast. To give an idea, a few days ago I had almost 300 images from a theatrical production shoot and it took just over an hour from the time I started to when I burned the CD.
