PhotoPrism will create the following sub-directories in your photo path: `Import`, `Export` and `Originals`. Copy existing photos to `Import`, not directly to `Originals` as they need to be renamed and indexed in order to remove duplicates.
Files that can not be imported - like videos - will stay in the `Import` directory, nothing gets lost.
**Step 2:** Start PhotoPrism using `docker-compose` in the same directory:
```
```console
docker-compose up -d
