Help with Duplicate Files on Shared Server

Hi all,

I recently started working for an interior design company that hires outside photographers to shoot their projects. My job, as a marketing director, is to direct the use of these assets in collateral. I want to use Bridge, and by extension libraries, to categorize these Assets and allow third-party consultants to use our photos as needed.

The problem I'm having is that historically these photographers send their assets in a .zip that contains three or four folders with the same photos in the same number of resolutions/file formats. For example, I have a folder for Project A that contains four folders that contain High Res Tif, Medium Res Tif, High Res JPG, and Low Res JPG. 

Is there a way for me to simply import all existing project photography into Bridge without creating duplicates? Or will I need to dive into each of these folders and only import the highest resolution images?

Thanks all!
