Hi all,

For those Lightroom experts in the crowd, question for ya. When importing my photos, Lightroom will bring them into the catalog and put them into folders by date taken. Is there a way to have it put them into folders by "import session" (for lack of a better term)? For example, if I go on a weekend camping trip and take pics over the course of the trip, Lightroom will put my pics into folders according to whether I took them Friday, Saturday, or Sunday. Instead is there a way to tell it to put the pics into one folder? Thanks for any advice you can offer. :)

LR will put the images where (and how) you tell it to.

Thanks a million! Exactly what I was looking for. My option at the top was always on "ADD" and when that is selected, "destination" options are not visible. Thanks again! :)
