If your table of photo data has several types of photos, and you find
yourself saying
if is_mugshot:
#something
elif is_freehand:
#something
else:
#something
then OOP will help organize your code.
If it's just a flat table of data, and you lay down a deeply nested
hierarchy of stuff, you may have over-engineered.
Best,
Chris
