There is no definitive answer to this question, as it depends on your personal preferences and workflow. However, some tips on where to put your Lightroom catalog may include:

  • In a dedicated folder for photos and videos. This will help you keep track of all your photos and videos in one place, and you can easily access them when needed.
  • In a subfolder of your photo library or photo gallery. This will help you keep track of all your photos in one place, but it may not be as organized as a dedicated Lightroom folder.
  • On the desktop or in a separate window on your computer. This is up to you, but it is generally recommended that Lightroom be placed on the desktop so that you can access it quickly and easily.
