For instance, you may have multiple folders on your computer containing photos of a family member. You can create an album of this person to view all of their photos at the same time.
To open the Photo Library, click on the Library button on the Home tab, or select Photo Library from the File menu.
Note: These photos will be removed from the Recently Added album once you select more images, so be sure to organize these photos before selecting more images.
Using the folder browser dialog, select a folder and click on the Select Folder button.
Note: The folder browser dialog does not display files - it only shows folders.
With the photos selected, click on the Move or Copy button at the bottom of the dialog.
This will open a new dialog for moving the selected images to a new folder.
Click on the Browse... button to select a destination folder. Note: the folder browser will only display folders, it will not show any files.
Check the Create a copy checkbox if you want to make copies of the selected photos. The copied files will be moved to the destination folder, while the originally selected photos will stay in their current folder.
Click on the Move button to move the photos to the destination folder. The Photo Library will add the destination folder to the Folders list and display it.
Alternatively, select some photos and click on the Add to Album button at the bottom of the dialog.
A popup will appear for assigning the photos to an album. Type the name of your new album and press enter, or click on the Create New button.
Any images that are selected when you create an album will automatically be added to the new album.
With the photos selected, click on the Add to Album button at the bottom of the dialog.
This will open a popup containing a checklist of all existing albums.

Once you've checked one or more albums from the checklist, click on the Apply button.
Alternatively, select some photos and click on the Assign Tags button at the bottom of the dialog.
