I do barcoding using a plugin I wrote of lightroom. We have used the plugin for over 3 years, but I have never marketed it or tried selling it. Frankly, I am a photographer first and have it working but not all the spit and shine of a commercial program. But I get the feeling that you are looking for anything that works. I use it for underclass portraits, high school seniors, dances, little leagues and any other time we need to associate data with images. Used it this morning to capture the names and ordered package information for 100 cap and gown portraits. We also print all our work inhouse and use the barcode information to capture the packages ordered and print them strait from lightroom, using another plugin I wrote. The whole system is based on a small barcode scanner that is synced up, using the plugin, to the images in Lightroom. Then you can import extra data (name, grade, homeroom, package, etc) from a csv file. We shoot raw for everything and because of this the others programs that required you to shoot jpeg would not work for us. We used to use SchoolDays+, but they abandoned the market. Looked at PhotoLynx and others also, but the only thing close was PhotoVelocity. Please contact me (allen at gambellphotography.com) and get with you on the details of how it works and what you need it to do. I am always looking for any new ideas to speed up my processing.
