Phoshare

Phoshare is a free and open-source software that lets you easily export and sync your iPhoto or Aperture library to a folder tree. It’s super handy for organizing your photos!

Key Features of Phoshare

This software is great because it keeps both the original and edited images safe. It also maintains your event and album organization, plus it applies all your iPhoto titles, descriptions, keywords, face tags, rectangles, places, and ratings to the IPTC/EXIF metadata of your images. That means you won't lose any important info when you export.

Flexible Export Options

You have options! You can export a complete copy of your library or just create a linked image tree that doesn’t take up much extra disk space. So whether you want everything or just some highlights, Phoshare has got you covered.

Easy Synchronization

If you make changes in iPhoto, no worries! You can run Phoshare anytime to quickly sync those updates to your export tree. It's designed to work nicely with other file-system photo management tools like Picasa, Adobe Bridge, or Windows Live Photo Gallery. This makes managing your photos even easier!
