I know that I'm personally going to start using this little trick whenever I'm batching photos together by event or if I'm using a specific set of images for a blog post.

As it turns out, this hack couldn't be any simpler. But this one looked simple enough that even tech-intimidated me decided to give it a try. I'll be the first to admit that I'm one of those people who can be easily intimidated by savvy computer hacks. I recently discovered CNN Underscored's hack for renaming multiple files at once on a Mac on TikTok, and now I feel silly for having manually renamed files one by one for years. As you can imagine, I'm always looking for ways to make my workflow more efficient to save myself some time. Word docs, JPGs, PDFs, PNGs - you get the picture.

Between my writing-heavy day job, freelance side hustle as a lifestyle journalist, and amateur photography hobby, I handle a lot of files.
