Lesson 2. Organizing Images

Goals	Group similar images into stacks and auto-stacks
	Create projects and albums
	Use the Loupe and Zoom tools effectively

After any shoot, it's not uncommon for a photographer to sort through hundreds or even thousands of images for a project. Aperture gives you an efficient, intelligent way to deal with large numbers of RAW images at full resolution with incredible display speed.

For this project, we'll use a wonderful sample shoot of a Tibetan wedding party. Since you already loaded the images when you first opened Aperture, the first thing you'll want to do is identify the best images and group them in usable ways.

Let's start by creating a new album and comparing and grouping some of the sample images. Then we'll take a close look at two valuable tools for editing any photoshoot: Zoom and the Loupe.
