I've never had to organize much in the way of videos/photos, until now. I'm going on a trip for a month or two and want to organize the pictures and videos I will be taking. I'm interested in datestamps and tags more than anything. Does anyone have a workflow that works for them? Any apps that make this easier that I haven't heard of?

EDIT: I'm wondering about things like, downloading media from my camera and having something sort it all in a schema of my choosing. Maybe other things that I don't know enough to even wonder. Or, maybe there is no there there.
