p.1 #1 · easy way to fix time/date error?

Shot a wedding today and my assistant forgot which day it was. Came home and all of her pictures are a day off. Is there an easy way to fix this? I like to keep my images chronological. I have PSCS4, LR2.1, BridgeCS4. Will any of these work? I've never had to do it or I'd know by now

Thanks!

The easiest way to do it is with automated software.

If you're using a PC, look here ($25.00 to register): http://www.attributemagic.com/attributemagic-pro.html

If you're using a Mac, look here (freeware): http://mac.softpedia.com/get/Graphics/Photo-Time-Edit.shtml

There are other progams, and other methods, but this should give you a start.

Lightroom can do it. There should be some way to offset the time by a specified amount in there, though I can't say exactly where since I don't use it. Google shows this:

In Lightroom 2, go to the Library module, select all the photos where you'd like the date/time modified, under the Metadata area, click on the Edit Capture Time icon. This will bring up a dialog box where you'll be able to adjust the date/time.

Thanks Ryan and Tony, I went to bridge and sorted by date, put them in a new folder, imported the folder into LR, and did what you said to do. Worked like a charm! Yay!
