Prepare images for client review

I have a batch of twenty product shots for the March catalog due to the creative director on Friday. Resize them to 1200 pixels on the long edge, sharpen for web, and export as RGB high-quality JPEGs named with the SKU and shot number. Before exporting, scan for any dust specks or stray hairs and fix those spots. Send the ZIP to Maya in creative by Thursday for a first review.

Before I send these images to the creative director, make them impossible to reject at first glance: put the SKU and brief caption in the file name, surface one-click crop suggestions for the catalog grid, and flag any shots where skin tones or reflections look off. Also generate a contact sheet with thumbnails so Maya can compare compositions quickly.

I completed color corrections and basic cleanup on twenty product shots, and Maya asked for a set ready for the March catalog. I'm afraid some images might fail the catalog crop or have unnoticed sensor dust that will embarrass us in review. I can't tell which files will look wrong at catalog scale. Which three checks should I run now to catch the most likely problems, and what order will save the most rework?

Across monthly catalog deliveries we keep losing time to small cleanup and naming mistakes that get caught only in review. I want a habit that prevents late fixes and speeds reviewer comparison. What two changes to my routine would stop the usual causes of rework — naming, dust, and inconsistent crops — and how do I enforce them with the team?
