The Backup Mistake Every Photographer Makes

Most photographers and content creators do not lose their work because their camera fails - they lose it because their storage workflow has a single point of failure. In this video I walk through my complete photography and content creation storage workflow: SD cards, card reader, editing SSDs, backup drive, archive storage, and the 3-2-1 backup rule. This is the exact system I use to move files from camera to editing drive to long-term archive, without relying on one risky copy.
