The script below is triggered every day from my Mac. I use Hazel to move the tar.gz to an external hard disk once it's finished. This happens every day without me noticing. You can exclude folders if you want to. You probably want to exclude giant cache folders.

You should have a similar script.

At the time of writing, Hazel's default date attributes all refer to an image file's creation date rather than the date on which the photo was originally taken. The two dates may differ.

This script provides a custom date attribute reflecting the time the photo was actually taken. As written, it's intended to be added as an embedded script in a "Run JavaScript" rule action, so that it's custom attribute can be used in subsequent "Sort into subfolder" patterns.

The date this script exposes is obtained via sips -g creation [filename]. It's not clear to me exactly which EXIF attribute the sips "creation" property comes from, but it seems reasonable to assume it's either DateTimeOriginal or DateTimeDigitized.

We'll assume an OS X Mavericks (10.9) box here.
