Leaving WordPress on its own for image management on a website with a lot of images is stupid.
Items to Consider
- File Name
- Naming Convention: Use modern Video Resolution terminology; 1K, 2K, 4K, 8K (which refers to horizontal resolution, whereas 1080i, 720p, etc. refer to vertical resolution)
- Permalink Name/ Slug / Address
- Taxonomy (Categories and Tags): Only used for internal WordPress searches and some SEO indexes
- Other SEO Stuff
- File Control for various size Thumbnail / Resized Images that are automatically generated by WordPress, Themes, Plugins, etc.
- SEO stuff
- Image Index Page?
- Landing Page? (IE, a "Featherlight Lightbox" display of image, instead of standard page.
- Plugins To Manage Images and Media
- Permalink Manager - Manages all Permalinks, including Media and Images, with a Bulk Updater (Make sure to enable "Native Slug" in Tools, Permalink Manager, Settings)
- Auto Image Attributes - Changes Attributes (ALT, etc.), based on File Name. Useful if there aren't any ALT entries for an image
- Plugin that will create a default ALT description if there isn't one???
- Phoenix Media Rename (useful) is a simple Plugin that allows for this and it even automatically replaces spaces with dashes ( - ). It also allows for "bulk renaming", but only for manual modifications to the name (IE, it can't add "My Web Site" to the beginning of every file name).

- Enhanced Media Library (useful): Some Utilities for importing and exporting, Add several tabs to Settings, Media (including allowed file types)
