+### 3. Best Practices
+
+- **Consistent Naming Conventions**  
+  - Include the date, project name, and a brief description of the file (e.g., *2025-01-16_WMWWorkshop_Interview01.jpg*).  
+  - This practice makes it simpler to sort and retrieve files quickly.

+- **Organization**  
+  - Create a new subfolder for each new project or campaign under **Foto**.  
+  - Within each subfolder, keep original/unedited files separate from edited ones to avoid confusion.
+
+- **Version Control**  
+  - When making updates or edits, you can add a suffix like `_v2`, `_v3`, etc., to the file name.  
+  - This helps track the most recent version while preserving older ones if needed.
