The record

Purpose: PhotoTaken is a desktop photo browser for organizing and culling large shoots before handing selected images to an editing application.
Contact sheet: It builds a contact sheet with thumbnails that load in the background and supports sorting and filtering by color tag, rating, and file type.
Metadata search: It searches photo metadata such as camera, lens, ISO, aperture, date, captions, copyright, and location, with a point-and-click filter builder.
RAW and JPEG: It pairs RAW+JPEG shots as one item so renaming, moving, or dragging them keeps both files together.
Integrations: Color tags and star ratings are written to standard XMP for use in Lightroom, Bridge, Photo Mechanic, and other tools that read XMP.
Cloud files: It can show online-only photos from OneDrive, Dropbox, and Google Drive, plus iCloud on Mac, and download an item when opened.
Ingest and backup: Full supports copying from a card to two destinations simultaneously and rolls back the primary copy if the backup copy fails.
Formats and editing: The app browses 26 RAW formats and supports IPTC and EXIF editing, batch renaming, export, format conversion, and watermarks in Full.
Notable limit: Light does not include whole-library search, the point-and-click filter builder, most IPTC and EXIF editing, dual-destination ingest, batch rename, or export and conversion.
Privacy: The maker says photos, tags, ratings, and project files stay on the user's computer and the app does not include telemetry or crash reporting that sends data off-device.
Security: The maker says the Mac app is signed with its Apple Developer ID and notarized by Apple, and the Windows app is code-signed by LorMarSoft, LLC.
Support: Email support is available at [email protected].
Audience: The maker describes PhotoTaken as a workflow app for professional photographers, including people shooting weddings, sports, and events or handling high volumes of images.
Maker: LorMarSoft, LLC says it is a US-based software company founded by Mark Freedman.
