Hi, I want to create a library for photos with different folders within the photo folder. Like specific years, places I been etc. Is it possible to do this in Plex?

If the photos are organized that way on your hard drive, they will be organized that way in Plex. You just have to point your Plex library at the parent of all those folders. I actually do it that way myself.
