I am stumped on the best way to manage photos on my Mac. I am shooting RAW. I import into Photos (the Apple resident photography app which stores and categorizes the photos and has some editing tools). I am also using several post-processing tools including Lightroom, Luminaire, and Topaz AI. The problem is the image files are hidden inside Photos and I have to drag them out to work on them with the post-processing software. Then, they are lost outside of Photos unless I import them back in. What a hassle. I find using the PS and Luminaire plug-ins to be sketchy at best. I can stop using Photos all together and instead use Lightroom or Luminaire for both storage and categorization and for editing. But, then I look the functionality of Photos across platforms. Any advice??????
